| MBS Comp 16 Pro
Uppers:
The Comp 16 Pro is a great ride! The Matrix Channel trucks handle great, and the rock star hubs reduce the weight considerably. F3 Bindings are excellent for control and security. The deck is nice and long which is great for an average adult rider. The deck is also easily upgradeable with baseplates and heelstraps. T1 tread is nice.
Downers:
MBS=My Board Snaps.
That’s just it. No MBS deck is guaranteed not to break BECAUSE... they usually break. Also, Matrix Trucks are hard to maintenance. |

| MBS Core 16 2004 Edition
Uppers:
Probably one of the best boards for the money it costs to purchase. T1 tread is nice. Tri-spoke hubs won’t break. Matrix trucks respond great.
Downers:
Said problems with working on/moving matrix trucks. Freeflex bindings suck big time. They are horrible. Tri-spoke hubs are heavy.
And now...
The Deck.
It sucks.
The chances of snapping this deck are astronomically greater than snapping the Comp 16 deck. This deck is completely wooden like the Jeep Renegade, whereas the Comp 16 has a wooden core with a composite exterior. The Core 16’s deck is so soft that you will probably bottom out quite frequently on jumps and drop offs/cliffs etc. MBS Jeep Renegade
Uppers:
The MBS Jeep Renegade is the perfect board for getting riders into the sport due to the fact that its one of the cheapest boards around. It also comes with a brake already installed, which is useful for the beginner. Also, due to the type of trucks and bindings used, it is relatively easy to find most replacement parts that you will need at your local hardware store or skate shop.
Downers:
Freeflex bindings don’t do a very good job of securing your feet. Deck is 100% wooden (may break-the MBS factor), and is rather short for the average adolescent to adult. You may have really bad toe drag. Comes with skate-style trucks which do not handle nearly as nicely as channel trucks. The hubs are truck-specific (they will not work with Matrix channel trucks). Hubs are heavy-weight. |
| Trampa 35 Degree Deck, MBS Matrix Trucks, MBS F3 Bindings, Rockstar Hubs, and T1 tread
Uppers:
The best board I have ever ridden! The Trampa deck is super sweet, and is guaranteed not to break. No wood was used in the construction of this deck. It is awesome. F3 bindings are great for foot security. Matrix trucks ride great. Rockstar Hubs are nice and light. T1 tread is good stuff.
Downers:
Anything made by MBS can, and probably will, break. Matrix trucks are hard to maintain and switch from board to board. Mongoose Slalom (Frameboard)
Uppers:
It goes down hills.
Downers:
Very heavy, very long, and very old. Does not respond well at all. Major pain in the butt. |
