Description
Suited for inline skaters with seasonal depression and the younger or smaller crowd, these boards are perfect for those who favor a little less hot sauce on their skiboard tamale. Shorter boards offer maximum control and inline skate feel and the RVL8 Bantam line will have newbies feeling confident after just a few runs and more experienced riders feeling like kids again as they blast through mogul fields as if they were back on the high school grid iron. Both the Samurai and Village graphics are the work of long time RVL8 designer Martin Azevedo.

Nothing against the bantams, but I’d recommend something longer if you’re considering making these your first skiboards. I do like them a lot but they do feel limited in their use because they’re so short. These are great for mid season riding when the snow is harder. Since it’s so short it’s not the best on powder since even with a fresh layer of wax and my bindings set to give me the most float I can get, it still drags over powder. They are very maneuverable and have real nice flex. I can spin effortlessly when my boots are centered and riding around moguls is easy and riding over bumps I thought would take me down were no problem with the camber and flex the bantams have.
