I picked this little slice of heaven up about 2 weeks back and I think I'm in love. This board is pretty heavy, given, but when it comes to my more technical downhill runs it's a kick in the nuts! The mini drop on the front keeps my foot locked in and gives me something to push against which not only helps keep my weight on the front but helps keeps my weight in front when pre-drifting and taking hard corners. Also this board has an intermediate I guess you could say W concave on the back half so it doesn't interfere with your pushing foot but keeps you locked when sliding wonderfully and makes the board really take form to your feet.
The Sector 9 Tiffany also has some pretty mean wheel wells, I've run wheels up to 75mm and with 44 degree trucks with no problems with biting at all. The only downside I could see to this board is if you want something symmetrical for riding switch, but since I feel more secure being in my regular stance constantly I try to abstain from riding switch anyways so it's heaven for me. If you're looking for an awesome downhill, or cruising board be sure to check out the Tiffany!
