Description
The Hero™ will change you forever. It will make you do things, bad things…nasty tricks that you thought were impossible. Its secret is a three-stage rocker design that adds buttery Scoop tips and the vice-like grip of Pressure Distribution Edges to an already ridiculously forgiving and nimble package. Slash pow, smoke the pipe, lock into rails, and uncork tricks that you never considered trying—this board is like a bike pump for your balls.
