freez Posted January 31, 2003 Report Posted January 31, 2003 is the exit board at halfords any good, what i need to know is, what length is it? will it hold my 15st weight?, and is it any good for a first board, at £120 i cant find cheaper Quote
springtide Posted January 31, 2003 Report Posted January 31, 2003 I spotted that earlier. Do you know which Exit ATB it is? If it's an Exit Bomber, then you can get those for £89.99 (with free board bag) from: http://www.extremekiteshop.co.uk Quote
springtide Posted January 31, 2003 Report Posted January 31, 2003 2 true, but unfortunatly the Bomber isn't any good for the larger person. Quote
Bob Monkhouse Posted January 31, 2003 Report Posted January 31, 2003 Search for a previous thread on here. Someone said they are a special edition for Halfords only. I've had a go on one and it seemed like good value to me. Has channel trucks so strong but was still quite light. Have a shot on one and see what you think. Cheers Bob. Quote
freez Posted January 31, 2003 Author Report Posted January 31, 2003 you had a go on 1, what do you weigh, will it hande my 14.5st. as a novice i dont think i need an expensive board, and as my local halfords dont have any in stock i canna just hop on one, so i am relying on you guys that have tried them for advice, if you say it will hold my weight and good enough for a beginner, then it is worth investing in Quote
Bob Monkhouse Posted January 31, 2003 Report Posted January 31, 2003 Hello mate, I'm 15st and in my opinion it will do you just fine. Might benefit from some eggshocks to stiffen it up a bit. Depends on how stiff you like it. Woof woof ! Channel trucks aren't adjustable like skate trucks hence the need for different rubbers to change it but they are a fair bit stronger. Having said that I prefer skate trucks for the weight. Kheo Air-S is a cracking board. Cheers Bob. Quote
freez Posted January 31, 2003 Author Report Posted January 31, 2003 cheers bob, i`ll get onto my local halfords to order me one tomorrow. much appreciated Quote
