Defiantly the largest streetboard Manufacturer, with a large range of boards to show for it.
MODEL: Spacedeck
This board is simply meant to attract customers, with its transparent blue body, this board can only be described as... a pile of poo. There is no clear way to fix bindings on, and if you did it is unlikely it could take the strain as a trick board. With a top speed of about 5 mph you won't look cool, and the crappy Bearings which come with it are not all to blame.
MODEL: Sydewynder
This board is not much better than the Spacedeck but has some redeeming features. For example it is a great extreme beginners board, you could use this board to see if you have what it takes to be a 'snaker' and generally learn how to move, apart from that it is useless for any thing else, but who cares it's SO cheap.
MODEL: Viper Striker
It's quite nice for beginners, but not the one to get if you are looking for a half decent board. It is literally just a step up from a Syde Wynder, very light weight with plastic trucks
MODEL: Comp
Ignore how it looks, without a doubt this is a good little board. It has the ability to pull relatively easy tricks and is a nice all round beginners board. However it's very light weight and with plastic trucks it is likely to break or wear out.
MODEL: Pro
Better than the Comp but not hugely. It has the same type of bar as the Comp but is lighter generally but no tougher.
MODEL: Browser
This board is on the line between beginner boards and hard core boars. It has retained its plastic truck but has the look of a pro board. At a glance it seems to have suspension, don't be fooled because it's not. Nice board for ramps.
MODEL: Ashley Pro
The first good board Snakeboard made, it takes it's name from the inventor, a South African. It is more hard core than the pro but equal weight. It is similar to the Skinner and the Stiffy, its wooden plates are the same size as the skinners (plastic ones) with a shorter bar. A nice board with shock pads.
MODEL: Loadie
A strange looking board with built in bindings. this board is no longer sold, and for a very good reason too. Basically it had no real point, if you wanted a board with a long bar you get your self a Skinner, the tried, tested and liked board. The built in bindings meant that once you break them you have to get a new board. Many find themselves saying 'whats the point?'.
MODEL: Skinner
This is the board I used to ride and is the choice of many others too, it is the most popular board due to the fact that it is a great free style snakeboard, with a very hard core bar and metal trucks, it's one of the best snakeboards snakeboard has made and one of the best streetboards around. The only bad point I can say about it is the plastic plates which aren't a problem anyway.
MODEL: Stiffy
First of all I would just like to say that the name has nothing to do with willies. It is called Stiffy on the account that it is really stiff and the bar doesn't bend or twist. It has wooden plates and metal trucks. A very hard core board best suited to ramps. A great board
MODEL: Spluge (pronounced splooge)
This is the best board Snakeboard Snakeboard USA has ever made. It is also the simplest in design. It has good lightweight trucks which are great for nose and tail slides. The bar is wider but less flexible than the other Snakeboard designs which is good for bar slides, you are less likely to bail. Overall this is a great board and is very light. If you can find one buy it. If not buy a Dimentions AS1
