I've always been tempted to get this. Although I bet I'd wish for more nose. What did you think?
Its a 4.5 nose. Idk, depends on what you plan on doing with it, I guess. Its great for vert/bowl riding or just cruising around on. Its lots of fun! You could probably drill it back at bit, to maybe a 5.5 nose?
In looking at that pic, I could definitely drill the nose back. Probably the most ridiculous thing, but where the graphic middle line meet the trucks, I would make them the same on each end, so the nose could come back about an inch or more.
Might make it a little more manageable to skate as well, but I wouldn't know.
I have a Krooked Gonz board that had a 16" wb on it which was drilled too far into the kicks, which made it feel really bad to skate, so after drilling it back, it works so much better. Still over 15" but it is night and day with how it was from production to now with it drilled in at both ends.
Here is a post of what I did with it, then follow up post with an orange eagle, 9x 33 with 15 wb for comparison.
