well 120-y is pretty sick. dunno about the rest of them though
i prefer lacey cos im small, but people prefer roxanne/brandy cos its more divey and turny cos of it length according to jacko anyway
Yeah buy Tim's Lacey!
I've ridden his and the setup is perfect for anything.

im pretty sure he asked about the sector 9 boards, smartass...

 

like James said they are all different, so none of them is 'better' than the other one. However they do offer different concaves and platforms.

Natasha is drop-thru, so if you like a drop thru board there u go.

Usually Lacey and Brandy are the top picks because of their shapes. Lacey has a nice wide tail for that free-ride stance however the concave has 'curved' lips, this allows you to get your toe and heel around the edges for sliding, but some people dont like that at all and feel less locked in.

 

If you dont like that style of edges the next thing you would look at is the brandy. Its concave is money, and has nice sharp lips to help you lock in, however the tail is much narrower than the lacey. Once again some people prefer a narrow tail as it helps them get leverage over their back trucks.

 

If the concave of the Brandy is what you like, but u dont like the shape, take a look at Roxanne. She has the classic 'race' concave. same style as brandy but a little narrower at the front for extra leverage, and widened at the back for a more symetrical shape. This is a longer board than both but its nothing a little cut cut cant fix to make it shorter! (this is the board i ride)

 

next up you have the Annika, AKA the Sweedish torpedo. This is a nice solid shape with added 'W' concave. once again its a bit longer like the Roxanne but yeah its down to personal preference, you always have the option to cut longer boards short!

 

The ginger is the lowered board. Sector 9 have put this one aside for the time to perfect the construction and find the right balance between strength and thickness. trying not to make it too heavy but still strong and affordable. this will be on the market soon.

 

Also we are tweaking the designs in most of these boards to probably by next year (or hopefully the end of this year) a new range will be out with updated concaves and shapes!

 

 

And for all those kooks who automaticly write up "Daddow 120-y" when someone asks opinions on boards, shut up. i agree that steve makes great boards, but u guys need to chill, you dont rule the world...

It has overtaken grom clog as the most annoying thing to see in the forums now that the marketplace has moved.
