Some say they are weak and suck. Others say they are good. I personally think they are probably strong because fiberglass is really strong and is lighter than hardrock maple (What is used in most decks)

well if theyre as good as popwar drop techs then id say they were good.
To get one of these you would have to like springy bendy boards rather than sturdy hard boards that can survive lots of impact

I have skated a bunch, and plan to buy one when i get the money. They are strong and very light...hence the name fiberlight

I would have to disagree. fiberglass stays stiffer longer than hardrock maple:-25:

They do feel a little different though... I guess it just takes getting used to.

element fiberlights arent good because there definatly not sturdy, light, but definatly not sturdy.

I don't like them..i'm pretty sure they doget soggy quicker.. and also since theres a fiberglass inside it stops the hardness of all the maple together, making the board a little mushy so its not such a good thing to skate on.. well thats just what i think
