Well I put a few hours into the mastercarve today and Im really surprised by the trucks. They turn beautifully but I know they will bend on me in short time.
The deck is not so great for carving however. Theres way too much concave and its in all the wrong places for me.
There is no flat part to the concave laterally and has a destabilizing effect on my foot posture.
One big curve across the entire deck isnt good, flat with a kick up where the toes are is what is needed.
Which brings me to another point of dissatisfaction with the deck, that for all its concave. There is none where my big toes are, and all the toe side power is delivered by the big and second toe.
To put it bluntly, I got no support and lots of destabilization from the concave. It feels like paddling down the river in a canoe.
You can see that where my big toe wants to sit in the front pocket that the board is quite flat.
