Used this product to mount a David Nuuhiwa Lightweight longboard in a stairwell. People using the stairwell have to walk under the mounted surfboard. Not only is the board itself very valuable, but the lives of my loved ones who use the stairs are invaluable as well. Hence, I considered this product very carefully.

At first, I was going to reinforce the bottom, weight-bearing component. As I installed the mount however, it seemed strong enough so I didn’t install any additional angle brace or anything. I did hook up a secondary line of support though, consisting of a rope inserted into a hole in the tail fin (for the leash) and tied to an eye-hook (screwed into a wall stud).

The overall system seems safe enough. I do plan to inspect it yearly though, as I have some doubt about how well the plastic will hold up under stress over the long term. I only wish they made this same product out of stainless steel or aluminum.

Help with backflips..?
I am a very good freestyle snowboarder, and I want to add a backflip to my arsenal of tricks. I am definitely capable of doing it because I can backflip a skimboard and have flipped a surfboard. To be blunt about it, I’m just straight up scarred. With skimboarding and surfing, I had water Vertical surfboard Hangers below me to fall in. Snow is kind of harder. I just get frustrated when I can throw cork 3s and 5s, and my buddy (who can’t even hit a rail) lands a backflip his 2nd day out. We don’t get more than 2″ of powder at a time where Im from either or I wouldn’t be asking this question. Any additional help/tips are greatly appreciated.What type of jump should I look for? Size? More vertical or horizontal?Would it help if I tried with a smaller, lighter board?Should I try to grab indy to stay tucked?At what point should I spot my landing?When I leave the lip, should I jump with both feet, ollie, or just throw my weight?
