Comet FSMini Review


The Comet FSMini is an amazing little board that's great whether you're just looking for a cruiser, a freeriding board, and you can even do some freestyle tricks with it but the tails are pretty minuscule so I'd suggest something with a little more pronounced kickage if you're looking for a freestyle board. It has a tapered waist making it easier to footbrake because you can keep your foot closer to you, making you feel more secure when doing so as well as making it slightly lighter because it uses less material.

The FSMini is dropped through and although drop throughs aren't my thing it does make pushing 5 times easier and give you more stability when bombing hills but I find the drop through more practical for freeriding and I keep it topmounted (you can do either) for my technical downhill runs. this board is heaven on your feet as well since the concave isn't SUPER aggressive and instead you feel molded to it due to the 1/2" of rocker it has which keeps you locked in when sliding and makes changing your stance around much easier since you're not restricted from a super deep concave. I love this board and recommend it to ANYONE if you have a super wide stance I would recommend it's older brother the FSM but this board is an all around monster and can handle whatever you put it up to.
