For 2013 the Bustin team has heard the cries of their riders and reintroduced two of their more popular models in new Pro editions. Both the Sportster and the Boombox have been reissued in 2013 Fiberglass models.
Bustin:
The Boombox Pro is an adapted version of the Boombox designed to provide
riders with an even longer lasting, more impact resistant
freeride/freestyle deck. Two models were created for two different flex
options. The 6-ply Boombox is light and flexy with only 6 plies of maple
as a core, allowing the board to remain super trickable for riders
focusing on lower speed freestyle maneuvers and light freeride. The
7-ply, on the other hand, is more ideal for freeride and downhill riders
who also want the option to pull out freestyle maneuvers. Both decks
will handle much more impact than the original wood version, though the
cost reflects the additional time and materials that go into the decks.
For riders who will be primarily doing freeriding with less
flip-tricking, the original all-wood Boombox is still a beast and a
favorite among the Bustin team.

Bustin:
Sportster Pro 39
takes everything that we love about the original all wood Sportster and
adds in the benefits of weatherproof fiberglass construction and a small
nose and tail for kicking up the board when needed and protecting your
expensive trucks. The board has a slight to moderate dampening flex but
is stiffer than the original wood Sportster. Flex will be noticeable
when pushing around town while positioning the foot in the middle of the
deck and will be very slight when in freeride stance with feet placed
near the drops, making the deck excellent for sliding and comfortable at
speed. This deck is ideal for riders under 180 pounds who want an
extremely durable pusher/slider who will dabble in some downhill also.
Heavier riders will still be comfortable pushing and sliding but may
desire more stiffness at high speeds and should look to decks like our
Ibach, EQ, Ratmobile, or Mekanik. If you're going to own one deck and
one deck only, the Sportster Pro will handle anything and everything you
throw at it and will last for years.
