"hey bustin, i got my board right wen u guys said. The only reason i haven't e mailed back sooner is because ive been riding it the whole time ive had it for. BEST BOARD I HAVE EVER RODE ON... EVER!!!

Nick Samaras - Portland, ME

 "Hi Bustin guys! I have a few words for you:
About my Complex board, wow! I can see here the result of lots of hours thinking and designing and well applied skateboard engineering. The deep concave shape makes you stick to the board so well and it amazed me how it handles quick and closed turns.  About the service I’m really pleased, it only took 2 weeks since I ordered my board until it happily arrived to my home in Guadalajara (Mexico) and I did not have to pay taxes or anything else, by the way, thanks Matt for all your help and congratulations to all the Bustin team.  I’ve been skateboarding since I was 7 years old and now I am 38 (yeah, I’m kind of a veteran now!) so after 31 years playing with this toys I can say that this by far is my best and coolest skateboard.  Thanks!"
Ignacio Hernandez - Jalisco, Mexico

"Hello from Austin Texas.  I bought my board from you' all over two years ago now.  I am an old schooler born in San Francisco in 1967.  So I remember skateboarding with a wooden board and metal wheels and trucks.  Then I moved to Texas in 1976 and ofcourse no one was skating since there were no hills to speak of.  Well thanks to you' all at Bustin Boards this 41 year old skateboarder is riding once again.  I take my board everywhere I go and ride any and all hills I can find.  Long boarding isn't just for kids.  It is for all us older folks in the world that remember the fun and excitement of riding but just don't have that balance or craziness to do all these tricks and jumps you see on TV now days.  I have riding 4 miles hills in Brain Head Utah.  The steep hills of Seattle.   The streets of Austin Texas.  And any and all hills I can sort out on my travels.  I love my Complex board as it gives great flexing along with my Seismic trucks and 70mm wheels.  I glide over most bumps, dips, or any thing in the way with ease.  I carry my board in a small Snowboard bag in my travels and that means I can take it anywhere!!!  My goal is to skate with her in every state in our nation.  And to every country outside of the U.S.  I visit.  Thanks again Bustin Boards for letting this "ole schooler" once again feel like a kid!!!!"
Sean Ontiveros - Austin, TX

"I finally got my board today from argentinian customs!  What can I say...IT RIDES AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In Argentina streets aren`t so good, and I was afraid I could never enjoy riding like you guys do, but I was totally wrong! It rides so smooth that it reminds me of riding my snowboard on a powder day!  Thank you Matt and the entire crew of Bustin!!!  God bless you!"
Raul Casal - Buenos Aires, Argentina

"Hey Bustin Crew-I am in 9th grade and I just want to say thinks for the sick board. I bought a complex in February, and couldn't ride it much because of snow. Since April I have been riding it everywhere. I love the smooth feel and the awesome flexibility. I have gotten so many complements, on its unique shape and style.Thanks so muuuuuch."
Quincy Owens - Gorham, ME

"Lovin' the board.  Haven't mastered braking with the foot yet but have already sweated 7 lbs from my fat ass (and only managed two moments of shear terror.)  Josh is doing great and we r looking forward to next month skinning some knees in Massachusetts."
Gordon Gabby - New York, NY

"This is Amanda Dittloff.  I got your email addresses from the packing list on the new Bustin board that I got for my boyfriend which arrived today. I wanted to write to all of you and let you know first off, that I am incredibly grateful and appreciative that you were able to create this masterpiece and get it to me in such a short amount of time. I am very, very much obliged!! You guys are not only masters of your craft, but you  truly went out of your ways to help me get the PERFECT gift for my boyfriend, Brian.
Allow me to explain:
 I ordered a Bustin board through our good friend Gavin (and his best buddy Frank). Once I got the board, I did not get off of it. I ride it to my night class, to the grocery store, around my 'hood...basically everywhere. After I got it, Brian tried it, and I think he loved it more than me!! I didn't think it was possible, but the man loooooooves the board. He told me how much he enjoyed it, ( I could tell because it we almost permanently attached to his feet), so we went on the site and he saw that you guys make a bigger, longer board (the complex- I have the cigar) and he told me how when he got one, that was what he was going to get. This is when the wheels started grinding in my brain and the plan hatched for me to get Gavin to help me determine what colors, graphic etc that Brian would like without alerting Brian to the fact that I was going to get a board for him. Gavin was a true phenom, getting Brian to spill the beans on what he liked all the while under the impression that the board was for Gavin!! To this day, Brian thinks Gavin is getting a board and takin up skateboarding in the near future! Little does Brian know I'm giving him his perfect board tonight for our anniversary!!!! I'm covered with goose bumps because i'm so excited. What makes this even better is that Brian and I are skaters / surfers that are trapped inland. Thus, longboarding is a direct connection to the ocean that lies so far away. For both Brian and I skating and surfing is like healing for our spirits and souls. I wish to extend to you all and everyone at Bustin, my deepest, most intense thanks and gratitude for making this little miracle possible.
On top of all of that, i'd like to add that your boards are a most superior product. I've been skating since the 8th grade (i'm 29 in a few months, so that's a chunk of time. ) I started out on a hang ten board with hang ten trucks and hang ten wheels. The Bustin boards are truly exceptional and magnificent. The best board that I've ever ridden. They have enough spring and total dexterity, allowing for super hill speed(without the death wobble) or extreme cruising and carving. I LOVE THEM!! As I said, I ride it everywhere and most of the people that I see ask what it is and where to get it! I pass out the flyers and stickers and give rides to anyone who wants to try it. The consensus is "what an AWESOME board!! Where do I get one?!?"
Thank you again for all of your help-you guys are amazing and wonderful people. I will be sending a ton of business your way - but realize that it is because you guys make such an amazing product - people get their hands or eyes on one, and it's love at first sight!!
Thank you again, and if you guys ever come out to NC, we've got a place for you to stay and tons of good hills that you can skate!!"
Amanda Dittloff - Wilmington, NC

"Hey fellas... just wanted to let you guys know a few things. I got my Complex in April and have absolutely loved it. So much, in fact, that I told pretty much everyone I knew how amazing Bustin Boards were (whether they were board savvy or not). As a result, three of my buddies have purchased Bustin Boards in the last couple of days (check your recent orders for Mark Richardson, Bobby Jacobs, and Daniel Irving) and I'm pretty sure a fourth is on the way soon. Although I would love to take all the credit, my word alone did not seal the deal. Each one of the guys rode my other friends' Sector Nine's and Landyachtz and after spending time on my Complex decided that only a Bustin was a worthy expenditure of their hard earned money (we all work together at a church in Houston, TX). So... suffice it to say you guys make high-quality products, you offer the most creative approach to board design I have ever seen, and you're passion for boarding, creativity, and sustainability is evident in all that you do. Thanks very much to each and every one of you at Bustin Boards. You now have a very strong following in Houston, TX...and it's growing."
Mark Bogart - Houston, TX

"THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING RIDE I'VE EVER RIDDEN!!!!"
Josue Deprat - Santa Rosa, Puerto Rico

"Hey guys, just wanted to let you know the board arrived today, and it's simply gorgeous. I can't wait to get out on it. Hopefully we'll get some warmer weather (and no rain) this weekend.  Thanks again, Mark"
Mark  Chernesky - Stone Mountain, GA

 "Just wanted to shoot you guys an email letting you know how awesome the new Complex is.  I've ridden a lot of my friend's boards and I have to say this board has felt better than any of them. If (and when) I eventually decide to get another board, I'm definitely going Bustin'.  Thanks guys."
Zackary Darwin - College Station, TX

"Hey Matt, greetings from Manila, hows the new year for Bustin? hope everything's great, well its been 2 months since we got our Complex's and its been great, ive gone through a number of setup with it already, the most current one is my tribute to Harlem's Bustin, as for my Artist friend: FABO, he's customized his blank Bustin already with his original artwork for graphics, the Complex is a sweet and unique ride, perfect for the conditions we skate in, mostly skating the city streets of the Manila's south borough's, we've tested it on hills, on parking lots, along the mains roads(high way) along with speeding buses and jeepney's(our basic form of public transport here), jump around on it, travelled with it, hell i even rode mine in a skate park for fun, on weekends i commute on my board to and from our friends place in the next village(which is normally a 15 min jeepney ride) on my Bustin, were still amazed at the boards like the first day we've had them, i mentioned earlier that its unique cause we skate in tightly knit community saturated with boards from Loaded, Sector 9, Ladera(plus the occasional Earthwing's here and there) theyre always amazed when we bring our Bustins out. I guess im just writing you this just to say how much were having fun and lovin our Bustin boards. Im setting my eye on getting a Strike soon, i just have a few questions though? is pressed out of the same mold as the Complex? is there any way you can make a longer Strike perhaps? maybe a custom 40"- 42"? ive also noticeed that although the Complex has a real working kick tail, its kinda hard to pop and use it cause of the way the trucks are mounted to them, it takes a little getting used to i guess, but still a sweet ride! ive attcahed a few photos of me and my Bustin and soome links to more photos, its not much but i hope you guys enjoy them."
Paul Michael Z.  Dela Torre - Las Pinas City, Philippines (SEE BOARD PICTURE)

 "Thanks again for your help Matt, I will make sure to share my experience on Silverfish and elsewhere about everything Bustin does.  It's refreshing to have such personal care taken by any company these days, our family of 3 skaters are now Bustin riders for life."
Ken West - Encino, CA

 "I just got my new board from you guys, and I have to say it is awesoooome. Next time I need to buy long board stuff you're my guys."
Grace Kochiss - Fullerton, CA

"Your deck is still running smooth. Got a complex deck from you guys about two years ago. It is still good. People notice it and say something sometimes about it.... When my neighbor's car was stolen and messed up I started lending mine to him. So I have been riding my board over four miles a day, four days a week for the past three weeks. Love it. (but it sucks being all flat and no hills. I live in Tampa, FL) Took some pics with my new camera too. Let me know where to send them if you want copies. Again thanks for the great deck. Have a good one."
Christoph - Tampa, FL

"I got my complex about a week ago and I don't think I've left it for more than 10 minutes since. It's such a smooth ride, perfect for cruisin around campus. It tears through all the rough pavement we have around here like it's not even there. My buddies love it too. I think they might be putting orders your way later this week. The graphics are sick, the customer service is amazing, and it's by far the best board I've ever ridden. Cheers!"
Erik Bergmann - Rockville, MD

"The Bustin complex board is the sickest riding experience I have ever had. Nothing can compare to the Bustin complex. I've ridden many different long boards but this tops the list by far. I had the sector nine, loaded, and many other long boards and this one is my favorite. So trust me if you want a long board get a Bustin long board, you wont regret it!"
John Hoffman - Fairfield, CT

"I got my complex board a couple weeks ago and it is a work of art. I'm 35 years old and it's my first longboard and haven't skated for about 5 years because it didn't feel right anymore but your board has changed everything. The feeling of the board is awesome,the design is incredible, and it is almost impossible to lose your balance on it. Thanks for the great product and service and a way to get away from the grind of everyday life. Take care, guys!"
Daniel Carter - Torrance, CA

"Ryan, I really appreciated the time and effort you guys not only put into your product but your customer service as well. I can't say enough about how happy I am with my Complex and my Austin series Spliff. They are both incredible boards with their own special attributes. The Complex is the most comfortable, maneuverable board with the perfect amount of flex that I have ever ridden. The Spliff is perfect for everything, It's amazing how much it handles like a larger board, it's stable without the traditional twitchiness at speed normally attributed to most of the short boards that I've ridden. Now all I have to do is pick up a cigar and a sojourn and my collection will be complete....Great fit and finish on the boards as well."
Abe Daher - Oceanside, CA

"I have to say, I'm very impressed with your work. I can't help but smile when I'm riding! It's my stress reliever. As my transportation to and from school, I always get compliments from students, teachers, and kids at the park. With it's unique shape and custom designs, it does stand out from the others! Thanks a million Bustin Crew!"
Alyssa Loriezo - Orlando, FL

"Hey just wanted to drop a line to tell you how Awesome my Complex is!! It is the perfect blend of fashion and function. My wife calls it a sexy board. I personally find it an awesome ride, responsive and fun! The construction and art are some of the best I've seen in a long time! I would say the true soul of skating is represented in the design of the Complex!!"
Jason Rhoton - Ashland, KY

"I just got the board a few hours ago and I'm stoked. For someone who literally has every major manufacturer and most boutique boards out there today, I can honestly say that this is the most well thought out design. From the simplicity of the website, online personalization and lightening fast delivery, Bustin nailed them all."
Todd Schwartz - Towaco, NJ

"I got my board today. Even though it's dark, freezing and really windy outside, I just got back from taking the complex out for a ride... and I absolutely love it! If it wasn't for the weather I'd still be out cruising. So I just wanted to take the time to thank you guys for building such a great board and for patiently answering all of my questions."
Ilka Rudolph - Berlin, Germany

"Since i got my bustin i call in sick to work, then i call my boss to tell him how sweet my bustin is. I think he understands because he has a bustin too.... I just can't explain to my girlfriend why the board stays in the bed with us ???? You guys rock keep doing what you do."
Don Tirino - West Hempstead, NY

"Hey thanks for nothing... I gave my helper his complex the other night after it arrived. He calls in sick ever since with "the flu". Today he texts me that his bustin is sweet! I'm in the cold trying to reach a 20' roof with a 17' ladder and this f_ck is miraculously well enough to carve cement."
John Munz - West Hempstead, NY

"My name is "frenchy" and I live in Vail Co and I am currently riding your complex board with seismic truck and man all I can say is holy sh*@! I am loving this thing. I have been a pretty loyal Sector 9 fan and started to get into Never Summers new line then I got the Bustin' as a gift and will never go back to any thing else. We got mountains up here as you may know and this thing can handle the steepest and longest streets Vail has to offer. The board carves super smooth and the whole ride itself is as close as I can get to snowboarding in the summer! You guys did a killer job and I want to just give a thanks for all the time and effort you have put into this line. Keep up the good work and if you ever come to Vail I can take to you to some good back country local fun!"
Michael French - Vail, CO

"I bought a complex and a spliff. Both boards are well designed and are definately works of art. The complex has plenty of room on it. I like the fact that there is little bit of concave in the deck but it isn't too severe. It is a very easy riding board for cruising the neighborhood or for chasing your kids. I bought the spliff mainly to be used for carving and pumping through my neighbor's driveways. I love the full shape of the board, it feels wider then it is and with this full shape I found that I like riding it tail forward. Either way the board is easy to pump up to speed so if you like a small manuverable board this one is worth a try."
Wes Porter - Morehead, NC

"I got my complex on Friday, it was raining. Saturday the sun came out in the afternoon and so did I. I haven't been that scared in a while!! The handling of this board is amazing! It turns so tight I can hardly keep up with it. You guys nailed it with this one. I must say it is better than I hoped it would be. I had no idea that a skateboard could handle like this. If the Cigar is more of a performance board than this, it will be a while 'til I am ready for that!"
Eric Johnson - Reisterstown, MD

"I purchased the Complex and it was everything I expected from a custom board. Their work is such quality that when I realized they forgot to bill me after I received the board I felt obligated to pay them. Thanks to Bustin Boards I've got the sickest ride on four wheels in the ATL."
Christopher Powers - Marietta, GA

"I tried a couple of different boards before I found bustin boards, mostly what attracted me was the profile of the company as well as the chance to express myself through the graphics on my board. I didnt really knew what to expect of the actual ride, being from Mexico city one of my main concerns was the wheels, we dont have smooth streets and sidewalks over here so cruisin around on a skateboard is not as easy. I got my deck a week after i expected due to a customs holdback (normal), finally took it for a test ride. The wheels will take most of the debris and cracks on the pavement smoothly, the more i ride the more i can push the limits on my complex, the flex on the deck and the trucks give an awesome surf-like feeling allowing for some sick turns and nice rides. Im stoked with my purchase, thanks for the excellent customer support and keep up the good work, Gracias por todo."
Fernando Mendivil - Mexico City, Mexico

"Hey! I bought a Custom designed Complex board with Gullwing trucks, and Kryptonic wheels. I love the board! Your service was quick, easy, and extremely helpful. It's awesome having a board that rides to perfection and is custom for my style. I could not have got a better board for the money. Thanks a lot! "
Tim Piette - Irasburg, VT

"I bought two of the Custom designed Complex boards, Gullwing trucks, Kryptonic wheels with an Irish theme this past summer. The team did a tremendous job with the custom design and both my brother and I are stopped on a regular basis for questions. I live in Hoboken NJ and ride it everywhere, the carving is unreal and will be a great transition to my snowboard in a few weeks once the snow covers my urban trails. I could not be happier and Bustin should have 4 on order from envious friends real soon. Thanks is an understatement! "
Brandon O'Connell - Hoboken, NJ

"Thanks to Ryan and The Glorious Bastards at Bustin: I Haven't been this stoked about skateboarding since Back To the Future came out in 1985! "
John Munz - West Hempstead, NY

"I just want to let you know that I got the board and although I know you heard that a thousand times I want to thank you for the great product you sold me as well as the great service and attention you gave me through the whole 'deal'...it really feels good to support the NY longboard scene and it feels better to get a product that exceeds my expectations. Thank you."
Fabio Oliveira - East Elmhurst, NY

"So I just received my Complex Board with Tracker Dart trucks and 3DM Avalon wheels. Damn. This board rules. I was a little hesitant at first of buying a board that I'd never been on before, especially being an old school Sector Nine guy and all, but to be perfectly honest, this is the sweetest board I've ever had the pleasure of riding. These Avalon wheels can handle ANYTHING, and when you're cruising down the streets of Manhatten, anything really could mean anything! I was a little disappointed that the old Gullwings weren't available anymore, but the Trackers are sick after a little toying with them. I also love how low this thing is to the ground, and the size and shape of the complex deck is definately one of a kind...Artisticly, I love the grip tape stripe and logo, but I'm even more impressed at how the bottom graphics are done using a silk screen and each board is individually signed and numbered! Very cool. I would highly recommend these boards to anyone looking for a unique board of the highest quality riding experience. Bottom line, these boards kick ass. Keep up the good work guys."
Mitch Friedman - New York, NY

"I love my Bustin Board. Complex deck, Revenge trucks, and Kryptonic wheels. The artwork is great and unique. My buddy and I took 5 different boards out on some hills behind my place. . .and the Bustin Board was by far the best ride. The customer service has been excellent making the whole riding experience better. Keep up the good work! Much respect from Costa Mesa."
Shivaji Deshmukh - Costa Mesa, CA

"The complex board I just got is glorious. I rode it out last night past all the bars and this one drunk guy made it a point to tell me, his girlfriends, and everyone else on King Street that he had been trying to find the board I had, I dropped your name but he probably won't remember anyway... Its only my second day with it and all the other guys with long boards wish they had one after trying mine. Just carrying it between classes today got me tons of envious questions and curious looks. It's the first long board I've owned but compared to my friends its the best any of us have ridden. Its gorgeous and rides flawlessly, thanks for such an amazing board!"
Patrick Marx - Charleston, SC

“Dude, the board is sweet. I put some revenge trucks on it, and I've been riding it all day. I've tried out alot of boards over the years and its by far the best quality board out there, honestly. Thank you guys so much for the one of a kind board as well as the very friendy customer service. Even though its only been a day, I've had probably over 20 people comment on how awesome they think it is. Once again, thank you. Keep up the good work, and best of luck to you guys in the future."
Ryan Endres - Billings, MT

“I have never been on a board so nice before. All of the guys I board with all ride Sector 9's. I let them all try it out the day I got it and all of them wish they had some cash to buy your boards. I love the customization and the ability to have my own personality. We are all different, so why not get a board that expresses it. Thanks so much and thank the team that built it for me. You guys got it goin on."
Karl Dinkler - Grantham, PA

“I must say that I made the right choice when I purchased my Complex Longboard from Bustin Boards! I had several questions regarding boards prior to my purchase and I was helped throughout the process by the Bustin Boards Team. I took a lot of time researching several websites and stores looking for the right deck. Most of the boards that I came across seemed very similar and I was looking for something different. The styling of the Complex Deck is awesome and being able to choose the paint colours is pretty cool as well! This is a must have Longboard!!!"
Michael Meredith - Milton Ontario Canada

“Thanks for the awesome board! I am a soul street rider and have been riding longboard's for over 10 years now. I can tell you now after all my years of riding boards, Bustin Boards is hands down the best ride I have had. The flex and feel of the complex deck is outstanding and the look is by far the best on the market. I love that I can adjust my ride to the conditions of the street! Better yet, it's my own design and style that I want. In my opinion Bustin Boards is setting the standard now for custom boards and providing superior customer services and riding knowledge. It's about time we longboarders have our perfect supplier! Congratulations on making such a killer board. All the best and good luck to the entire Bustin Board staff"
David Hall - Atlanta, GA

“Bought a complex board from you guys almost 2 years ago. I just wanted to say what a great board. The components you use are top notch, but the best thing is the durability. I've beat the crap out of the board for 2 years and everything is still in perfect working condition. The custom graphic still shows strong, I assume because of the clear coat on the bottom. Good work and good luck fellas.”
Lukas Korver - Los Angeles, CA

“Bustin Boards have started something in the longboarding industry. Their amazing custom graphics allow you to personalize a board that fits you as an individual. Also, you cannot forget the sick ride of their specially designed complex deck. I cannot imagine riding any other board after cruisin on the complex.”
Adam Quinn - Elizabethtown, PA
