REMILLARD 9.25 x 31.95 WARBIRD PRODUCT CHALLENGE W/ RON WHALEY!

Today we talk about and put to the test the all new 9.25 x 31.95 Tom Remillard Warbird deck. With a 14 inch wheel base this board was great for flip tricks and the turn was very reactive. The 7 inch nose and 6.75 inch tail make this board nice and compact at under 32 inches but without the feeling of less room for your feet. In this video we break down the details on each of the products and why they are great. Then we put Santa Cruz Brand Manager Andrew Cannon and Legendary SC Pro Ron Whaley to the test with three different challenges. Let us know in the comments below what challenges we should throw in the bins next!
