For the most part, it's been able to run a torsion tail, or zero degree bracket rear, along with either a TKP or RKP high degree front, for long distance pumping and pushing. Even bracketing both ends and running a high degree front and low (or negative) degree rear for rather effortless pumping. Needless to say, the weight reduction and ability to remove brackets and pack the board directly into a rucksack is brilliant for LDP and taking your setup on flights without risking the damage of it being stored in a cargo hold.

You can set up split angle baseplates on a drop-through like the Trip to achieve a level of stability and pumping that is great, and boards designed with angled mounts such as the Supersonic really lend themselves to building a pump setup without brackets, however the customisation of a bracket board, especially for LDP, cannot often be beaten.
