We stopped using Smartrise for over two years now, I hear they are for sale , and at a point of closing down. we have stocked boards for spare just incase. We are using Alpha for all our hydros , and they are easy and great to work with. As well We just ordered our first traction , I am sure it will go well just like the hydro. But for sure all the companies in my area have stopped using smartrise its a sinking ship.
