2014 ATV Review

The Specs:

The ATV is built around the shape Gigi Ruf designed for his initial pro model when launching Slash.  And needless to say, Gigi got it right the first time.  This directional twin reveals the beauty of simplicity.  Thanks to its traditional camber, the deck provides an abundance of pop and a responsive ride reminiscent of old school decks.  And thanks to the ATV’s ultimate traction bumps—which interrupt the deck’s sidecut to provide additional contact points beneath the feet—this thing can crank out turns and handle the hardpack.  The board’s recurve nose and tail—which are reinforced with metal protectors—reduce material and weight while creating a unique aesthetic that hints at how fun this thing is to ride.  Slash’s ATV has everything you need—and nothing you don’t.
