Like many of you, it was this beautiful 240p video that made me buy a longboard. The freedom, the fluidity and the plain fun of it all was what kept me inspired and hooked. No competition, no pressure to go as fast as you can, no restrictions what you can and can't do. Sliding long and going fast is great, but there's never gonna be anything like the whirling dervish spirit. I love you Adam Squared, you guys are my heroes.

Bought a dervish in 2011 after watching this vid. Can’t tell you how many unforgettable experiences I had with it as a junior in high school. This thing ferried my car-less butt to and from home, local landmarks, school, school dances, girls houses (lol), the beach, really just the best tempo to enjoy life at at that age for me. I still have it, cracked nose and tail and all. Wish the originals were still made.

i still remember the first time i walked into that one store in the next big city for the first and spotted some longboards. I had some really cheap noisemakers passed on to me and i rode the hell out of them but i was instantly fascinated by the smoothness and how easy these were to push. i kept returning everytime my parents took me there and tried new boards whenever their display changed until about half a year later they had a dervish in stock and at that moment i just felt that thiswas the one for me. So i managed to convince my parents to greenlight this although "I already had one" and this thing was more expensive than my bike at the time, in fact this thing was probably the most expensive in my posession at the time, but i thinnk the fact that i was obbsessing about getting one for a while was proof enough it wouldnt go to waste. the staff was super chill too and they gave me a little discounnt and i paid in part with my parennts money and more thann half with my own and have been riding it to this day and its my favourite means of commuting or just going out and have fun. so inspired by all the other comments: this is the story how i got my dervish before i ever knew about your brand or the community associated with it and i must say it was probably one of the best purchases i ever made.
