Its okay though, because he has Shaun Whites boots. They automatically enable you to do 5’s in the pipe. If he had the whole setup he’d be throwing back to back 10’s.

Arc’teryx makes nice stuff!
umm i only used rentals.. so this is my first time buying gear
and i thought this stuff was pretty good to develop riding skills..
was it wrong?
It is all excellent equipment, but the CustomX isn’t the ideal beginners board. The board is on the stiff side, so not the easiest board to learn on. You definately won’t be out-growing the setup anytime soon which is a good thing. Plenty of time to get used to your setup and progress. The board might take some getting used to but overall it’s a great setup. You will be fine, enjoy your new ride.
