Nah not yet. I should though, I’m curious too.

I would have to guess it’s still nearly 20 lbs if not slightly more. The BN drives are pretty heavy

Only 20lbs??? What’s your setup dude that’s insanely lightweight

The lightest i could build on paper was 24lbs, although maybe lipo pouches would shave a couple pounds off.

BN gear drives are about 2x the weight of the OBD

Yeah first days can be a bit strange, but as soon as you get used to it you don’t wanna miss the heelstraps anymore.
I usually have everything very tight if I want to jump a lot. If I just carve i have the bindings a bit lose but heelstraps still tight.
I also find it more comfortable to come in/out of the bindings by just opening the top straps, not the heelstraps.
The Bro deck offers a big variety of binding stands. I would recommend you to try different angles for your food stand. It really can make a bog difference. I still change small things from time to time.

And, nice Ollie, well done :ok_hand::+1:

Yeha I started getting used to it already after jumping for a bit, the heelstraps make it much easier to stay planted

I think I’ll try to adjust the back one so my foot isn’t as turned the wrong way

Thanks!

I’m on a mission to get my foot facing a little further forward. For my old knees sakes.

I designed this build to be easily battery swappable, betweeen lipo and liion. I just haven’t built my liion yet

Needless to say, the 12s7p P42 isn’t a good choice for jumping
