Tight company, tight team, shitty product.

Primitive?

Idk if id call their company "Tight" but their team is crazy

Their boards delam after a couple weeks unfortunately

Still bbs/generator, same quality as every other brand...

[shit_for_brains]

Primitive doesn't have bad product. Their boards are SO FLAT but of quality.

interesting. I guess it was just a bad run my friends got (DBZ run)
I hope they do another pendleton collab (please make it happen)

Hopps & Western Edition

I love my Hopps, but maybe growing up in the east coast i have always had a love for Chapman

[dirtyweemidden]

the first Enjoi board I had was great, every one i have had since then has turned to weetabix in less than 2 weeks.

palace havent put out any good products since 2012/2013

[FakieNollie]

Hasn't it been brought up multiple times that crailtap recently started using better wood?

I'm not into anything crail and have never wanted to buy their boards so I have no first hand experience, but has anyone saying that they suck tried their new stuff?  Does it still suck?

I never had any of the old stuff. I've been skating the film series globe boards for a few months now. Solid shape, and they last just as long as any other brand I've skated.

I like 917, the team, and the Call Me video, but I recently got a board and it sucked. Heavy and just not my style. Anyone else ever have this disappointment with a brand/team that they liked?

[close]

I also felt this way. Does anyone know where they press their boards? Someone told me Generator, but there's no way the board I rode was generator.

[close]

Pretty sure they used to be PS Stix.

[Allen.]

^ that. I’ve backed out of buying WKNDs so many times because they’re PS Stix.

[offkilter]

Just curious, what is the problem people have with PS stix? I've always liked the boards I've had.

totally. love the team and company vibe but the deck is super heavy and a little disappointing. its a generator wood so it feels really durable but kind of soggy at the same time.

i bought a t-shirt from them and it was really good quality but hey its a tee and not a skate product.

I don't know if this has changed since the company started, but Huf shoes were extremely disappointing to me when I tried them a few years ago. Barely any insole to speak of, and the 2 pairs I had blew out in very strange ways. They seem to be very popular, so maybe they improved some things

[close]

Huf is the trashest of the trash, sick team and stuff, but all of their shoes are garbage :

- Sutter = 20 minutes of kickflip over a bar, and a hole appeared

- Hupper 1 = the sole is way too thick 

- Cromer = worst shoes ever made, the collar blew out while i was blasting high ollies over stuff

it's crazy, that's 100% the opposite the experience i had. the cromers have been the best shoe i've ever skated.

as far as I know Quasi boards are PS Stix. And I enjoy them. Never had a complaint really.

[pauline_handsome]

yeah quasi are all ps-stix and all of the 917 decks i have seen are generator

Same here, I have many pairs of Hufs and they never dissapoint: Gillette, Classics, Dylan, Soto

Also it's really easy to find them on sale because I have a huge feet

[Surf-goth]

Gonna have to go with palace. Bought a board once and man was it horrible! Flat as hell and the nose and tail looked exactly alike.

Quasi are PS Stix... another company I would buy a lot of boards from if I liked PS. It’s just subjective. I don’t like their wood. It just doesn’t feel “right” to me.

Love Magenta and Isle but hate their flat ass pointy boards

[close]

I just got done with a Magenta 8.5 that was definitely not pointy. Was super flat though, but I like flat boards.

I've had like 100 Magenta boards over the past 8 years and never once got a pointy one. I actually love the fact that they have proper round nose and tails and quite symmetrical shapes. They're definitely flat though, but like planman I like flat boards and always have, probably due to growing up on Girl decks in the early naughts.

Generator is my favorite but I've always liked PS Stix wood.

[Kickflipmcdelux]

Royal trucks are garbage.
I love thunder trucks because they grind like butter but the kingpins snap like twigs if your a grown man.

I prefer a flat deck too... these last many years I almost exclusively ride PS wood.

& my favourite wood & decks of all time are the girl boards pre the china wood. SUPER FLAT, amazing shapes. I used to ride the Colin MCkay or Rudy decks. I was lost when they switched over... then stereo relaunched & had amazing LOFI decks that were very similar to the girl ones.

[Dermbot]

FKD bearings. Probably the worst skateboard product, quality wise in history. P rod was on their team which is good enough to say your team is stacked....

I had a 917 shirt and it was extremely poor quality. You think AO would know whats up with some quality materials. Guess not.

My 917 hat sucks

I wonder what the quality of Sci Fi Fantasy is. Looks like a Gildan with a simple font on the front. Jerry laughing to the bank!

it definitely isn't gildan. something def cheaper.
