Tight company, tight team, shitty product.

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?

There is nothing else that needs to be said in this thread.
Bronson is the worst. How the fuck do their ball casings break so much?

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 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.

I have the RAWS on my board right now and I can say that I will definitely buy them again. The G2s and G3s on the other hand are complete shit.
Gonna go down to the Bronx and hang out with the gonx

Im riding an Enjoi board and it's pretty good , not into the fact that the nose and tail are a bit smaller compared to other boards Ive had the same size, but the wood is quality for sure.

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?

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.

Really? What size do you ride? The Isle/Polar 8.25 is my favorite shape.

Currently on a PS (8.25) and other then feeling a tad heavier, it seems similar to the generator I had previously.

What issues do you guys have with this wood? Curious...

I generally just don’t like the shapes they use, and they don’t seem like they last as long for me.
One of my best friends and I had this conversation the other day and he was saying the same about Generator/Bareback. It’s all subjective.

For sure.. I actually love the shapes, pop and kinda steep concave.

I'd love to try some deluxe wood, particularly that 8.125 with the shorter length. They're just hard to find in shops in that size...
