I purchased the viper sure grip 18 grams red one the are better than the one supplied with the boad

I would suggest the max 18, 16 to me feels really more accurate, you compensate a bit more with the heaviver dart like a 18g, but really, its all depends on your feel of the dart and what you like. To me the 16 feels good

Hi Laura,I don't think it will work well with soft tipped darts. The surface of the board is really hard, it is high quality, also it repairs itself. The downside is that you need steel tip darts. What we did was to put some old clothes around the board

No. You should weight at least two hundred pounds and expect the handle to bow a little before the board breaks in a somewhat straight line. This device does not cut per se but snaps.

yes of course you can use it, that was my weight 2 years ago, I had the dart2 and then I change it for this xc30, now my weight is 175 more or less and it works pretty good.

Darts come in many different weights, all the way up to 50 grams, most often though they are not heavier than 30 grams. Weight is a personal preference, but the lighter the dart, the harder you have to throw it. I don't think that you will notice much difference between 21 and 25 grams. Either would be fine. I went with the 25 gram ones.

you need a larger board at your weight .I forget how big they make the board , 44" would be the best , it will be quicker and still carry your weight.

I've had friends who are way heavier ride it just fine. The only problem is the board looks like it's caving in, but obviously never breaks. Enjoy!

Jim I have the same board and these darts. Highly recommend you get the snub nosed tips NOT the standard long ones. And buy the big bag....you'll go through them. Once the tips get a bit soft....the darts don't stay in the board well. Sorry I'm mobile and don't have a link to post.

I'm 165 lbs and it held my weight with very minimal flex, very well. The boards around this price range are always pretty stiff, which could be considered an advantage for heavier riders.

Hey. So my sister and I have done tandem on this board. Together we weighed about 330 and it was hard to use the board(the balancing part was super hard). The board sunk deep in he water but it did not flow over the top of the board. I suggest getting a taller board closer to 12 feet that can handle more weight.

Weight is fine - and this board would work up to about 57" tall, if a beginner. It's a soft top, so will get dented, but so far so good. Minimal wear, and the fins have taken quite a few rides up onto the sand and rocks without damage. We've only used the board for a couple of month's, but it's in pristine condition, and used 4 - 5 times a week. Hope this helps.

They are standard plastic tip darts so if the dart board you are asking about is a normal plastic one they should work fine. Hope this helps.

Standard, but you could probably use an olympic bar. You'll want to be carefull adding heavy plates one side at a time as it has a small base and standard bars are only 15lbs...it could fly off and smack you if you're not carefull.

Hello Yvette, I wish that I could tell you, but I had to return the board as it was not long enough for me as I am long legged. However, what I recall, the board was not heavy at all. I'm guessing maybe 5 or less pds. I hope this helps

The board is a great board for the price.. I weigh 280 and it holds me just fine.. You really can't go wrong with this set up..

My son is about 150 lbs...and the board hasn't cracked yet! So it would be a good first longboard for you. Have fun!

Good day, I weighed my board this morning. The scale read 7lbs, which is reasonable given how heavy it feels.
