I love it. I mean it's my first board and i kind of went into ordering it blind. I got it with bear grizzlies, sector nine dual durometers, and bones reds. Good turn out for not knowing anything if i don't say so myself.

ive heard great things about these, is it worth the high amount of dollars that you paid for it though and would you recommend me to get it?

I mean, dervishes are flexy as fuck and fairly fun, but unless you want to do a pretty large amount of dancing, go with something else. I love my landyachtz 9two5 personally, but it's really all about what you want to do. wheels will make a big difference as well.

Is his a dropdeck as well? I've ridden my friend's switch as well and a dropdeck has a very different feel from a dropmount, which is what my board is. If it is, and you're used to it, go for it!

Sorry for the dub post but I went from riding a top mount to the switches huge drop and it wasn't very hard to get used to. By the first few minutes it felt natural. On another note I cant stand the feeling of drop thrus/dropmounts, but I guess I'm weird like that.

To each there own. I went from an original malakai to the 9two5, and had no problem, I'm just making sure that he's buying a board that's similar to what he likes. If he's been riding a dropspeed or something like that and loves it, he probably will be a bit weirded out if he buys a switch.

That's a good point but whatever he gets whether its a switch or 9two5 it doesn't really matter. they are both great boards and he will probably love either one of them.
