Bustin Boards Maestro 38" Longboard Complete - Duck: 8 PLY

Born in the Bustin Brooklyn labs and refined on the streets of NYC, this is the ultimate Push Culture longboard. Slightly more camber and concave in the front position means more power from your push and quicker response through your carves. More flex than Bustin has ever offered means a liquid ride and way more response from your carve and pump. Twin tip shape with a kicked nose and tail crosses snowboard-like foot hold with a traveling circus bus longboarding. Freeride stand-ups, backsides, frontsides, nose and tail manuals and a hundred new longboard tricks named after yourself are all inside. Extra wide foot placements lock in your feet for a comfortable, predictable stance and give supreme leverage for hard, effortless carves. This 38" rig rides unlike anything that has come out of the Bustin labs to date.

A hint of forward positioned camber and concave creates springy rebound in the push position while the slightly recessed rear pocket holds your foot and allows for easy transitions from kick to board. A usable, kicked nose and tail allow for a range of creative freeride potential and the super wide foot positions make for a comfortable, predictable stance. Made from the finest North American Maple and competitively priced lower than most high performance, high flex rides.

**Please Note** If you are planning to use RANDAL trucks on the Maestro, we suggest choosing a wheel 70mm or smaller. Larger wheels with Randal trucks may result in wheel-bite unless you have a custom bushing setup.

DESIGN The board was designed as a high flex, hard carving pushing longboard with a flair for creative freeride longboarding. Its sits at 38" long with a 27.5" wheel base and a 2" kick on both sides. The ultra light 7-ply maple construction weighs in at just over 3 lbs. making for a feather weight smooth ride. The shape is engineered to flex hard but holds up to beating. The cutouts have been tweaked to disperse stress and create strength when and where its needed. As a drop through, this longboard sits super low to the ground giving your push leg the full advantage. The drop through mounts have been CNC cut for a precise fit with most trucks.

FLEX The Maestro is Bustin's most flexible longboard ever creating a smoother ride and putting more spring in your push. Because of its 7-ply full maple construction, this board has great flex whether your 115 lbs or 215 lbs. The unique cambered concave mold construction and shape were carefully engineered so that the board holds its spring day after day and season after season of any type of longboarding.

CONSTRUCTION The Maestro is made at the Bustin North Carolina manufacturing facility from the finest sustainabily harvested Canadian maple. The 7-ply mold is cold pressed for extra strength using their special composite blend glue. After fully curing, the mold is CNC cut, routed and sanded smooth. The drop-thru mounts are then specially routed using a precisions CNC bit. The board then goes through a wood finishing process which includes several cycles of sealing and sanding. After production, boards are sent to the Bustin Brooklyn shop where they are hand-printed and finished by one of their artists.

SETUPS The Maestro is designed to work with most longboard trucks. The drop thru-mounts are specifically engineered to fit Bear, Randal, Gullwing, Paris, Independent and Tracker trucks. The board was designed to work best with 180mm reverse-pin longboard trucks such as the Bear Grizzly, Randal RII and Paris 180, but for a lower, looser ride can be used with Gullwing Mission 1 and Independent 215. The drop thru mounts will not acommodate Seismic trucks. This board is designed to be wheelbite free with most truck/wheel combos, but we suggest not going larger than a 75mm wheel. Also, if you are running Randal RII's we suggest sticking to a 70mm or smaller wheel because wheelbite can occur.

THE POSSIBILITIES This board is designed to be an ultra fun, freeride longboard. What does that mean? It means that its a 3 pound, 38 inch magic carpet that only you can learn how to fly. This longboard is straight fun for everything from casual longboarding sessions around town with your friends, to focused trick training, to high speed rural hill bombing and hard carving. Its the kind of board you just can't get off no matter what you have to do or where you need to be. Be warned, longboarding addiction may follow.
