I started out with the Blade 5, and when it was worn past the point of usefulness I decided to try the G3 as a lot of people online swear by it. I’ve only had it a month and a half but so far, well for starters its much nicer looking than the Blade, mine has effectively no veins appearing in the sisal so that alone is a big improvement in appearance. Looks much cleaner. I practice daily and the board definitely shows use but nothing serious. I turn it about once or twice a week. I only remove one star for the bundled rubber feet that go on the back, they are a bit troublesome and I would recommend buying the rotafix or some other similar system for mounting the board

Very good fit and finish, stunning appearance. Very quiet board as well. I too would recommend a different mounting bracket, although the traditional system works well enough. I put a white number ring on, which compliments the board a bit better than the supplied silver one. Smurf and One80 rock!

Fantastic Board and Have been pounding this one for almost 6 months. Holds up great and very durable. Triples are still great and color hasn’t much change. Recommend this board to anyone. I mount with the upgraded system sold here and Its amazing to just slip it on in its groove. Well worth the cost
