I’d seriously recommend that anyone who genuinely thinks about purchasing any of his products to thoroughly research every aspect of his designs and read a number of his own posts that show his inability to respond to criticisms that have been made – these are nothing more than an attempt to sell incredibly overpriced boards to the “ultra rich” (to quote Roy himself) as status items or pieces of art rather than functioning surfcraft, and when we really get down to it, there’s nothing here any cabinet maker couldn’t do."

Have to say that Liam is making sense to this po' boy who can't afford 528k for a friggin longboard, now or ever.
BTW, I dug a bit on the 'Net & most of the 'reviews' are just land-locked ravings of the rich & goofy on websites like hauteliving.com (the name alone...).
