you guys are quasi if you think thats how its pronounced


edit:
that being i think qua(kwa) is the proper English form because you pronounce in the same in Latin, and the french "ka" is deviation from that origin like quality(kwa) qualite(ka)

how do you like that shape. I have few santa cruz's on the wall, they all have a large nose and nose and smaller tail. A shape I've always hated, but some people love. NHS decks seem to always show up for cheap.

Been on a huge b16 kick, but all this seasons baker graphics are garbage so i wearily picked up this girl GO33 shape. its basically a b16 with a less pointy nose and tail and i was pumped on the graphic and shape, but i guess what they say about crail wood is true.... after ten mins of flat and maybe 3 bailed flip tricks the nose and tail both got tiny chips. sanded them down and its fine but i just don't remember the last time a board did that. other than that I'm stoked.

If you're really into a shape and not feeling the graphics, just spray it over and skate it rather than subjecting yourself to girl wood  ???

how do you like that shape. I have few santa cruz's on the wall, they all have a large nose and nose and smaller tail. A shape I've always hated, but some people love. NHS decks seem to always show up for cheap.

NOSE LENGTH 6.66 in
TAIL  LENGTH 6.38 in

Basically the nose and tail are shorter than a lot of boards at this length (especially with a 15" WB). I love the shape, just wish it was shorter; The tail is significantly more tapered than the nose.



Flip had a Caples deck that was essentially the same thing but with super tiny WB.

A guy at my local park pretty much only skates this board, and backwards.

I honestly like it. The nose and tail is smaller in person compared to the pics and the shape is really flat so you gotta adjust to scooping but everything feels the same for the most part

I posted a set up with a Caples deck shaped just like that a couple weeks ago. 8.4x31.25 with a 14in wheelbase. It's fun as shit.

Habitat 8.25 - First Habitat deck since like 2009? I  skated it yesterday and really liked it. Right off the bat was a really nice shape, easy to get used to compared to the Girl i had before.
Thunder 149 Hollows. 95 Aftermarket bushings
53mm 99 F4 classic spits. Bones 6 ball bearings - about 6 months in and there spinning really fast but not too loud.
