for the first couple of days the armor light deck has good pop and a nice snap to it but after the first week it chips like a btch and the chips get bigger over time

I bought a darkstar standard deck (7.5in) and I find it very reliable and easy to do tricks with. It rides just like my plan B deck and its lighter than my girl anderson deck. The darkstar has plenty of pop and I feel like I control the deck. Since it is so light I don't have to put much effort into my tricks such as ollies. And it is also strong just like my girl anderson deck. Yes I would recomend a darkstar to a skater, they are a very reliable deck, however any deck you purchase will work, just make sure it is the right fit for you. Thats how people break their decks, it is because they buy a type of deck they never used and never take the time to get use to it before they do tricks. My advice is to ride it around and get used to the concave, nose, and tail before taking it to the park and you will have the deck for a long time.

my Darkstar was good for about a day when i first got it but then it chipped really easily on the nose and tail, it doesnt snap it just chips. do not buy a darkstar they are shit. also, is girl or almost better?

Hey for people who are thinking about geting a dark star get the roses amor light.The reason why is because i just got one and its my frist pro deck and it kicks ass.It has great pop and concave i could almost make a kick flip i now think i will on these board.I had to work my ass off for these board and now im hella happy i did.So just to let you guys know.

my friend has an armor light and it's really light and has real good pop!!
psyco94550 04/29/2008
Do not, I repeat DO NOT buy an armor light deck. The thing is the biggest piece I have ever rode. Usually a deck will last me a while but after less than a month the plys seperated and cracked on the nose and the tail as well. I dont do stairsets or abuse it in any way, all I do is just play skate and shit on flat ground and then this happens. now i'm stuck with a board thats falling apart and wont just break. It has no pop anymore and just bends like crazy like its a god damn diving board. This was the worst waste of money I've ever had.
evileyez 04/28/2008
first of all darkstar isnt the greatest brand of skate board. second they are lacking in pop and strength (unless it is an aromr lite, a brick house) and finally, a deck should only last you for a month or two and if you broke it in a week-2 or less, you suck at taking care of your board
Risewiththefal len613 03/17/2008
Amazing board, great "pop" lasted along time, even got ran over by a car and was still awesome!!!!
volcom12341 03/07/2008
I'm 95 pounds had it for about 2 months and it cracked!!!! Usually a deck will last me like a year, I think im getting an enjoi now.
timmy540 01/22/2008
I think there wonderful!Great pop,concave,and very strong!If you dont like them your probly a poser and/or are friends with a poser who own a darkstar.
Sk8trAde 01/15/2008
The Darkstar Armorlights are the shit. I have owed 3 one lasted me 4 months as a beginner and i only replaced it cause i razor finned it. the second lasted me 6 months before i finally snapped it. my 3rd is going strong. the older models suck but the newer armor lights are awesome.
lifesaver 01/03/2008
i have a PLG armor light board and it is the shit zack
yomommasuckska teboards347 12/29/2007
i have a darky for about 2yrs and it's sill in prete good shape although i'd rather have a girl, it's aieght. the deck is heavy but it has great pop and is beast at stair skating. the only thing else that sucks is that the tail chips alot and after a while there is no pop. monseur malcolm a bientot.
sk8now111 11/10/2007
Okay, I have a Machnau armorlight and it's pretty good. great pop, but the flip is hard to master. Also, if you like concave boards, these are the shit. fully dipped. so overall, great board, but not number one. A zero would probably be better.
ryanguitarman 10/06/2007
darkstars are great, i love them, they have good pop! they are light but awesome oh goshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

skate4real 06/27/2007
I love darkstars, they are so good. The concave is amazing and the wieght is so light. i mean its not the board u would buy if your fat but its perfcet for us that are skinny and healthy (jk).
Sh03S 05/25/2007
There pretty good, i mean its a deck ive got a resin 7 team modle nothing speical. iv had it for about 2 months now i just broke 3 peices off the nose and tail today but then again i break about a deck a month so its doing unuasualy good. thats pops solid flips pretty good slides ok its a good deck. only thing i can say would be a twad nicer is the pop is a bit uncoftorbal, like the tail feels fat almost but once u get used to it they pop pretty decent

I just bought a Darkstar Momolu, and by far it is one of the best decks. I'm an oldschool skater and I'm use to fairly wide decks, but once I got on the Momolu, it was an easy transition. It is part of the Amor Light series with a carbon composite layer and and ultra light maple veneers. This deck is super light and really strong. I'm 6'1 and 200lbs and I've ollied off some high platforms and ramps and this deck is holding up nicely. It has nice concave with a tail and nose for some nice pop. It was over 15 years since I've last skated, but when I got on the Darkstar, I was ollieing over 3 decks and landing kickflips the very first day. So to summarize: great deck, tons of pop and concave, and extremely light and strong.
spencer01 04/16/2007
i got my darkstar for christmas and its amazing. it still hasnt cracked after skating the 8 stair by my house a dozen times. the pop is great at first and it holds better than my last few boards. no chips yet and it slides fine
theamann661 03/26/2007
i have a darkstar delusion, it rides well, has good pop, but it got hard core warped in the cold, i think...like 8 degrees weather, but thats really not the boards fault i think...the armor lights are very strong, hence the name Armor Light, but are heavier because they are made with an extra ply of wood....i would reccommend them...and plus the graphics are just amazing.
purpleAWSpurpl e 02/17/2007
Darkstars are both good and bad, mostly good. My first board I bought was a darkstar and I thought it was horrible but I just sucked then. When I bought my second board I started riding that until it broke. So I was outta money and went back put all the stuff back on the darkstar and it was a lot better than when it was before. Great board recommend them for beginners and good people good pop good shape I couldn't snap mine until i put it up against a curb and jumped down on the board. Great buy get one. Darkstars are better after like a month.
pacpal 02/08/2007
a guy I know has one the armor light hes said there unbreakable because of there fiber frame. He tould me if the thing breaks then they can give you a new one no charge. But I dunno I never riddin one
taulbee 12/25/2006
it didnt have enough good qualities to get a 3
ste0428 12/05/2006
I have a Darkstar now. Unfortunately, I have just bought it so I don't know if the pop is just the pop you get on every new board or longlasting YET. But, overall the flip is really good and so far, the pop has been good. Also, I like handrails and so far the paint is scratched but no more than any other board but, I'll make another comment on them when I've had it for like a month on the pop then.
darkstar221 11/25/2006
