Longboard Chinchiller

Any thoughts about the Loaded Chinchiller?
It's probably the next board I'll buy. It looks pretty versatile and exactly the size I was looking for (34" long, 8.5" wide).
Cruising, carving, freeriding, tricks, maybe a bit of dancing... seems like this board can do it all!

Did you have the chance to try it? Are you looking to get one?

A photo showing the two sides of a longboard, the Loaded Chinchilla. The top side shows a black grip tape with a rainbow-colored dash going from front to back. The bottom side shows circles of various colored partly superposed. The longboard is complete with Paris trucks and Orangatang orange wheels.

I really dig it - seems like a great board to just pick up and cruise/carve. I wonder how well it would pump?

I hope it pumps well! I've just ordered mine.

It should arrive tomorrow! I'll post my first impressions.

The shop messed up my order and mounted 180 mm trucks. I contacted them and they replaced them with the correct ones (Paris V3 150 mm), but I haven't found the time to give it a test ride since then.

Damn! My autocorrect had corrected "chinchiller" to "chinchilla", and I didn't notice until today! Sorry for that.
By the way, the Chinchiller was named after longboarder Kyle Chin who helped design the board.

it looks nice :D I wound up getting a discount lush throttle earlier this year which is about the same length but directional and longer wb. might look at this as my next deck tho it looks a bit more skate-park capable (and that's where i find myself skating lately)

Wow, the Lush Throttle looks nice! Great artwork. And the width probably makes it very comfortable for LDP.

I've been freeriding/freestyling with it, it feels a bit high with the sabre trucks.

Last year I was looking for a middle-sized board, something that would fill the gap between my Tesseract and my Dinghy.
I was thinking about getting a Loaded Poke, but I didn't quite like the asymmetrical shape. Now this Chinchiller seems to be exactly what I want!
