Ccs has an option now to upload your own graphics or text to make a custom deck.
They have sizes between 8-8.5
Anyone do it yet?
It’s only $50 with free Grip. Btw CCS is skater owned-they all seem to be really cool/good dues working there:
These are mine.
8.5s

What are the shapes like/how do they skate? I'm sure they're the same as their blank decks but I love the idea that I could get a deck with something ridiculous printed on it. Price wise- its a novelty because I don't really expect a lot of people paying pro board prices for a lesser-quality board.

If I can get a Frickin’ Adequate deck with the Dill mannequin photoshopped in front of the the twin towers then CCS might actually make some money of me.
-
I’ve considered this cause it seems fun. I’m worried about the shape

It’s the same as their blank decks, The decks don’t appear to be any less quality than the pro boards I’ve skated in the past.
Concave is kinda medium.
It honestly looks likes it’s going to skate like any other blank/pro deck out there.
I’ll be setting mine up within a couple weeks.
You can more or less see that shape in the top side pic I posted. rounded nose, not like a huge shovel, I don’t like the giant shovel nose but I’m happy with the way the shapes look.

I've made plenty through boardpusher in the past but was always disappointed in their quality and price. Post a review when you can on the ccs ones. Does the graphic seem like a cheap printed item, or is the transfer good quality? Boardpusher transfers are cheap and their blanks don't seem very good at all.
-
Im not sure what process is, it kinda looks like a
big laminate transfer type thing.
I would imaging that if I kept one of the decks for ten years it would probably start to crack eventually.
It’s not as good a quality graphic as major brands have. Maybe a slight step lower than a regular pro graphic transfer. but I’ll see how it lasts once I start skating it.
It does look somewhat cheap but just from looking at the ones I already have, I’m gonna order more eventually.

No they aren't. They're owned by the same company that owns Tillys

did they sell again? I thought they were bought by a company in Portland that sold longboards?

they are currently owned by daddies board shop out of portland

I guess it’s time to make boards with diseased genitals.
-
We should probably get a gofundme going for those Dill mannequin 9-11 joints
-
I may go for this depending on if I can find out how the quality is. Would probably use a picture of my beautiful cat.
-
I definitely want to do one with the VHS cover art of "Other Side of Aspen".

But they fuck over CCS customers by having better coupons and free ship no minimum on DBS page only
-
They are owned by an investment firm that finds “promising” companies and rebuilds them. They pay their warehouse employees a near unlivable wage and office,back end,creative dept, etc laughable wages. The boards are shit $5 blanks. Trust me. I worked there for a few years.

Yes more cat boards!
I’ll set up the board tonight and give it a whirl when y’all be rain stops.
I get a really nice fun vibe from the guys that run the instagram.
I’ve had cheap blanks from the internet before and they are always visibly low quality.
Like I said, these decks look like any other legit brand, there are some colored plys in the deck which is meaningless but I still think that’s neat.
-
I like the idea of printing cat boards too. Also puppies.
-

They can deny a graphic at their discretion.
Like i would think if it was a cock jizz or racist/hateful stuff as well as uploading things that are copyrighted

Sometimes on Facebook I get ccs ads and it will be Nike’s for 29.97 or something and I’m like whaaat. And I click on it and they are full price. Ive seen rvca pants in there for 9.95 and click on it and they are 60 dollars.
This bullshit happen to anybody else?

I couldn't see the pictures yesterday at work but they look to have turned out as good as I could have hoped, will probably get one and maybe even just keep it so I don't scratch up Whiskers. 50$ isn't bad for a custom board especially if they end up skating well enough.
Still curious on how that sweet ass rides though.

Semi off topic but do you guys know of anywhere to get decent quality blanks? I’ve looked at skatewarehouse but always been to chicken to pull the trigger.
-
Anyone who wants their cat or pet on a board should also get a 2nd one with their ass on it.
Perfect troll on the guy printing them

I bought one years ago to have as a wider street cruiser board (8.5) and after this winter I moved it over to my main deck and after 2 years it still has decent pop—more than a Chapman board I was riding. It’s middle of the road concave with a somewhat full shape but not a true full. For $20.00 how can you loose?

I’ve had 5 or so sessions with my ccs custom and it skates just as fine as any normal pop shaped pro brand board.
