166983 7800 Cj Nelson Boards. 8 Planktom Feb 27, 2020 2020-02-27T06:47:06-0500 The weight is moderated according to the design - I had a parallax under one arm and a Guerrero under the other, both 9ft6in. The parallax was noticeably lighter and according to CJ's blurb, this makes sense as it fills the 'HP single' type gap in the range. There was another thread on here regarding the longevity, I'll see if I can find it. However, feedback from the local ding repair wizard is positive at present as he claims he's not even had one in the shop to 'find out if they are truly s#it or not' yet. He did add that one only really knows about the full picture of build quality once a board gets properly smashed up and exposed to water... In this respect, the same thing that affects Firewires also concerns me - that the EPS will suck in water and then potentially worsen any damage via expansion... Going back to the Thunderbolts - they are really the first mass-produced boards that feel good under the arm to me. If they ride nice too, then I will be more tempted again to try one I think, maintenance issues not withstanding.
