Whirling Dervish

(n.) A person whose behavior resembles a rapid, spinning object. These actions are often spastic fidgeting and incessant babbling. The actions of the whirling dervish are irritating and annoying, often exhausting other people in the immediate vicinity.

The phrase is derived from these 2 words:

Whirling

1.) adj. moving or driven rapidly in a rotary or twisting motion.

Dervish

1.) (n.) a member of an order noted for devotional exercises involving bodily movements.

2.) (n.) a Rocking Demon who eats souls.
1.) that woman must have taken her son's Ritalin. She is behaving like a whirling dervish.

2.) Is she talking to us, to herself or has she just become a whirling dervish?

Loaded Dervish

A great, but still incredibly overrated longboard. While it is awesome for cruising, commuting and carving, the concave is to small and the grip to bad to be a comfortable slider. It is also rather slim, wich when combined with it's length makes it rather limited for dancing. The flex often wears out after a couple years. It does not feel very safe over 35-40 mph, but can be taken faster if you got the skills.

The main problem with this board however is the price. Many boards can do the same job, but is much more affordable. If you find a cheap one, it is a great begginers board that you will enjoy for many years.
Longboarder #1: Man! This Loaded Dervish is great for carving, but I need something I can take to faster speeds.
Longboarder #2: I know, it feels good, but is a bit limited when it comes to freeriding.

Longboarder#1: The dervish looks perfect to me, but it is to expensive.
Longboarder#2: Thats okay. Look into the Kracked Skulls Scimitar, Bc Eel, Landyatchz 9 two 5 or the Holesom. There are plenty of options.
