Sector 9 shipsterns bamboo longboard
the sector 9 shipsterns bamboo longboard is a great board for cruising, carving, and downhill just like just about all boards in the bamboo series. The shipstern also has wheel cutouts to help reduce wheelbite as well as giving your ride a nice smooth feel. The shipstern i also great for the environment because it’s made of bamboo which is actually a weed and grows 4 feet a week! I recommend the shipsten to anyone who wants an amazing board and what’s to help the environment a bit as well.
The sector 9 shipsterns comes with san clemente trucks and wheels but I suggest getting sidewinders for this board unles you’re doing downhill then I would suggest bombers or chargers. As for wheels I suggest getting some sector 9′s or someĀ in a 70mm or higher. The shipstern also comes with abec 5 bearings but if you want the best performance from this board I suggest getting some reds.
sector 9 ghost tree bamboo longboard
The sector 9 ghost tree longboard is a great board whether you’re bombing hills, carving, or making a commute, it’s a board that you can customize to do about anything. The ghost tree has wheel cutoutsĀ that really help reduce the chance of wheelbite as well as having a long wheelbase that gives the ghost tree not only a smooth, surfy feel but since the weight is distirbuted over a further distance there is less chance of wheelbite even with the most responsive of trucks.

As for wheels I suggest getting some sector 9′s or some oragutangs in a 70mm or higher. The ghost tree also comes with abec 5 bearings but if you want the best results from this beast I suggest getting some reds or if you have the extra money maybe even some sector 9 ceramics.
sector 9 teahupoo longboard review
the sector 9 teahupoo longboard is a great board for carving, cruising, and downhill. the teahupoo is made completely of bamboo which is great for the environment (and just as durable and flexible as maple). on top of that the teahupoo has a special W shaped concave that acts as an arch support so it’s perfect for those long commutes across town. I recommend the teahupoo to absolutely anyone looking for a good board at a low price.
