The shape felt weird had too much concave in my opinion but was really strong

Nigel: this had good pop Uzi: I have a smooth rock

Uzi behind the camera All shots 3 feet higher than usual.

Uzi is literally like a little kid! "Look at this rock i found"

“In the ocean you don’t have a job 😂 you just swim” that’s awesome thoughts

When I started my brand, Lunchbox Skateboards, our first boards we're actually made of Bamboo, me and a few of my friends Danny Vasquez, James Hein and Aaron Fox tried it, and we all came to the conclusion that, it's actually a really strong and durable board, Bamboo boards would actually out last Maple, the only thing real difference compared to maple was the stiffness; fall in stiffness feel of about 10%, but a rise in durability of about 40% is what you get. Because Bamboo is more flexible, it can flex without of breaking, but because of it's ability flexibility, the stiff feel that you would get from Maple slightly lost with Bamboo. With that said, I would still say that Bamboo makes a great alternative to Maple for skateboards. The pop was still there, some would even say there is more pop with Bamboo.

Gabe missing out on all the "bamboo-zled" jokes when someone missed a trick

“Hey Gabe feel this rock” never thought I’d hear a grown man say that

in all honesty, i'll prob buy me a bamboo board, just because they're cheaper, and can help me learn how to skate. I'm all about durability and saving money with shit that helps the environment. It seems the material isn't the issues claimed, but the over all design, which can be altered.

Mogley's been hiding his handrail chomping abilities. Damn.

Lol at Uzi trying to plug the wrong website. Let's also take a second to appreciate the killer whale discussion 🤣

Love how uzi just says “imagine if you lived in the ocean”

13:18 Gabe: "how-how did it feel? Tell me everything..." Mogeley: "oh, one more trick..." Gabe: "that was everything..."😂🤦‍♀️

Uzi looked so proud of the rocks he found

I have been skating bamboo boards for about a year now and I LOVE THEM

Gabe: what did you hurt? Uzi: my insides.. Lmao

I feel like uzi is the one friend that everyone babys

LADIS AND GENTELMEN LET REPRESENT TO YOU *BAMBOARD*

I’m gonna get one of those. Back in the 90’s boards had steep concave. World Industries had the monster mold and Rodney Mullen ”evolution” deck had super sick concave. Perfect for super technical stuff.

Nigel is goofy as hell, but when he pulls out the stops he can really shred.

I appreciate this episode title card not having a distorted “OHHHHHH” like usual

Thanks for reviewing a bamboo board! I was planning on getting one for myself but I wasn’t sure, this really helped me make my decision! Much love 💙

Should do old school skate where everyone wears baggy pants and shirt with giant skate shoes like globes or dcs

I almost Choked when Uzi said the Ocean was like the Wild West Lol

"I'd be peg leg Jones" - Nigel

Bamboo Skateboards have been the go-to deck of our local skaters in my hometown in the PH its nice to see it here get tested in a video.

I love you guys and your videos so much. Would love to see the Braille team do an Aussie tour. You guys re-sparked my passion for skating which I lost a long time ago. I have an old board I'd love to send to you guys for a don't break it challenge but that shipping is a killer. Anyways, I love you guys and just keep sending it!

I like how everybody is talking about how great the board looks like and mogely be like "Bro im so hyped on my new box shoe" Then nobody cares.

I see it less as the Wild West, and more like the Wild Wet

9:40 uzi is so proud of his rock lol

I am so excited for this video, I have been asking for a long time since I got one. Thanks!

Dood mad props for Mogely!! The guy was going trick or bust, and gave a very detailed review. Righteous Brah!!

3:15 Gabe just pretended not to see that because a man cub is better then him at basketball

I remember these coming out, never did try one tho Haven't heard of these in years, was just thinking about this brand not that long ago since I wanted to try skating again

The thing i like about these people is they say whatever they want and the just talk about another topic and it just gives the video life.

You guys are amazing keep skating

Dan the cam man is my fav. Ask him if he knows the way

Dude Braille is like my new favorite channel

The video you made to show haw to ollie it worked so well for me thank you i appreciate it

Braille Skateboarding : "this rock is even more smoother than the previous one" You guys are awesome

That day Uzi went back home with a pet rock.

“This box is destructible” everyone: 😐😐😐😐

Aye I've been skating these boards for a while and the pop is amazing! It does wear down really fast for me but it just depends on the type of skater you are but I would definitely recommend giving it a try!😝 Love you braille!

I ride arbor snowboards and they use bamboo for their middle ply. I love them. Seems super poppy while remaining flexible. Idk if they make their skateboards the same but I've heard they're sick!

Nigel is the new carlos he can land anything. And he is master at bowl

"dude if you were born as a killer whale you literally have no problem" Uzi - 2019 4:48

I had a Habitat board with some bamboo layers in the deck; honestly it was one of the best decks I had. I also had a habitat board with a hemp layer in it and that was pretty sick, but the bamboo I found was real good

I’ve had a couple of these they last super long and the pop is different loved them

It’s crazy how uzi has evolved into main member of Braille

I love Nigel! Calls it how it is. man, you gotta respect that!! Also, those trucks are dope 🤙🏽. That's the ones I got.

When he comes out of no where and is like feel this rock it’s smooth

Oh, to be at a skate park and observe the assembly of a board. That looks like fun, and just generally I feel like skate park vibes are generally pretty rad and chill. I can’t wait to start learning tricks so I can go to the skate park recently built in my city ;-; I can’t even pop my board and do an Ollie it’s gonna be a while.

If they fix the shape and put some different graphics on it they could for sure sell these instead of wood boards

I've been *bamboozled*

one thing I can definitely say is that this is the lightest deck out of all the cheap decks I have used. plus it will only bend and not split in half. concave is just fine. shape a bit weird but you'll get used to it quickly. I recommend it 100%.

That board is really cool and a great idea. Thanks again brother I would try one with those claims. Thanks Braille team.

Been repping bamboo sk8 since 2010. Great decks!

I was bamboozled seeing this🤣

Ive been involved in martial arts for many years, and we use fired bamboo for fighting sticks (kali and escrima) and are nearly indestructable if cured right. And super light. Great idea :)

If u get use to that board or the next version they make might be one of the best boards

Lol “look at this rock I found.”

Them trucks need some wax - 🐁 “squeak” Edit* Ah Mogley said they were new. Reynolds trucks

i was more fascinated in Uzi's rocks then the skateboard lol! much love Braille!!

I like the new Braille team members, keep it up guys!!!

We need an "It's interesting" Counter

Nobody: ... Uzi: Take this rock

Is the Braille hardware only come with 4 bolts and nuts? Two for each truck?

Uzi and gabes small conversations are the best thing in this channel right now

I think mogley is actual carlos in a really good costume.

I live watching your channel I am trying to learn how to skateboard but I can’t do any tricks but I’m getting better

So I just started skating and I bought this board for my first board. Will this negatively affect me in any way in the long run?

I really support you guys

you should start a series called, "Skate don't Break"

8:20 Am I the only one that thought mogly looked like a little person on a board? 👀

I have been skating Bamboo Skateboards for a little bit now and they are a little weird but super fun to skate with, I would recommend trying them!

the shape is the way it is for a reason. like its probably longer so that it can feel more stiff since its bamboo. and it probably has really steep concave to help with the pop since people say it feels soggy. plus a lot of people aren't used to longer decks so it might compensate a bit

8:52 "Noseslide it'' 😢

Wait who would the lightest person be? Since Carlos left.

finally. ive been waiting for you guys to test one of these. but the weird shape is going to be a big thing for most people

14:29 "I think it too looung, it like exchtendo" lmfao 🤣🤣🤣

hi im Nigel and i'm gonna 3 flip this bamboo board first try

you guys should come to Venice (Italy) and teach me how to skate haha jk. great video tho, love y'all

Been riding the same bamboo blank for three months. Love the shape of the board. Hope they don't change it

I had one of these boards and it lasted me FOREVER!!!! I loved it tbh. I got tired of looking at it I had it for so long but was a great board. It came with awesome stickers also.

How, those are veeery *e p i c o* tricks from Mogeli!! :D:D

Man, y'all wouldn't have sirvived sk8n in the 80's when we had boards with real shapes & real concave.

Mog has one aggressive stairs kickflip!! Such a beauty!!

Used to be sponsored by those guys when I was younger! Awesome to see Braille out there trying their stuff out!!

8:21 he looks mad small lol

My skate park is literally not a park it’s road concrete with ramps thats it it does from the ramp to concrete

love your vids

I’m impressed! I think a novice probably wouldn’t perceive the minor differences in shape the way these guys can after all their experience. I’m sure the makers could tweak it though. If I ever get another short board I’ll probably try one of these.

Love gave at the other side of the camera 😂❤️

Exactly 100th like

I bought a bamboo pintail longboard deck from Amazon for 30$ other decks were super expensive and I only use it to go from point a to point b but it's pretty strong 2.5 yrs later still riding

Bamboo Nebula Skateboo! Strong and perfect for tech!

7:28 his names Ishod wair he’s a pro philly skater

Nobody: The skateboard:Sqquuuuueeqqqq

Was there alot of speed when going into the bowl I'm thinking of trying one out

just what i always wanted in a product review, 4 ads... Mos(?) was the only one truly testing the deck & w/intelligent opinion.
