Deck Brands By Woodshop and Location

[SkateViolence]

I've never gotten boards pressed at South Central, but their wood lasts forever. It takes me way longer to totally hate South Central boards than just about anything else I've ridden.

[KMAC]

i agree^. south central and generator is the best.

[october]

I'm starting a board co. and I'm wondering if anyone has heard anything negative about pennswood or south central, I got a nice sample from pennswood, but south central is closer. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

I'll message you. I have a ton of info about these two.

The whole point here is fucking CHINK boards suck and fucking BEENER boards rewl !!  BEENER beats a CHINK in a fight all day!!! Except if they don't have a knife and the chinky has kung fu !!  But a regular off the street underpaid labor worker beener beats chink for sure!!!

This thread is interesting, I like to look at it in conjunction with "The Set-up Thread." If it wasn't for the "Weiner Wallet" thread, this would be number one. 

Anybody know where Sk8Mafia decks come from?  I'm going to go out on a limb, and without Google'n it, and say they are under the same distributor as Santa Cruz, or maybe Powel, shit I don't know.  Either way, I don't think anybody has mentioned either of those three.

Santa Cruz boards are made in China, Powell has their own wood shop in the US, sk8mafia is bareback I believe

Thanks breh.  Going to have to try one then, Bareback makes all DLX and Kayo boards and both those distributors are pretty highly praised when it comes to wood.

P.S. Mafia decks are distributed by Blitz who also does BlackLabel, LE, and Hookups.  Santa Cruz is under NHS and Powell is Skate one with just Bones...and Bones and mini-logo

Yo i had an idea, someone should post any shops that use generator, pennswood, south central, chapman or any other legit good woodshops to press their boards, so that way we can still buy good boards if we cant afford the name brand at the time or some shit.

[Hash Slinging Slasher]

Does Isle use Generator or Crailtap? It seems like people have been saying both just from looking around on here, or did they switch from CT to Generator?

My local shop gets there boards pressed by Syndrome (same as Birdhouse) and the one I rode seemed to be pretty good.

I'll be doing another sale to move last season graphics. Should be well within your price range. Our boards are pressed by Pennswood.

are you guys by that arlington mall or which ever super mall in that area? i feel like i've been to a 35th near there. i gotta stop by one the next time i'm crossing the border.

[EPetrov]

Does anyone know what woodshop Life Extension is using? Ended up giving them a shot and love it, longest a board has lasted me, showing no signs of pressure cracks, chips etc.

took 3 months for tail to chip.4 months later & its still in one piece though.

[b.v.]

For A while we only sold 8-8.3 but this past year a bunch of guys started shopping here that ride 7.5-7.75
Kind of crazy but you gotta have what people want.

[Bliz]

Chapman up in NY makes Zoo York, Supreme, and WORD boards

Just marked all of the boards down to $35. Trying to move them, and bring in the new series.

There is still a Slap member discount of %15 off. Discount code: SLAP

Boards pressed by Pennswood.

[KMAC]

noone knows where sausage gets their boards pressed?

[october]

Pretty sure they use South Central.

[Young Satchel]

Mood has Chapman boards on sale for 35 right now too. Lotta dudes on here seem to hate them and their graphics but I'm into that shit.

Not trying to compete with you October 😄 just given the "broke" boys some options

I am riding a Chapman deck and I prefer flatter boards, try a Fancy Lad. Their shapes are flatter than the usual Chapman boards.

I'm glad Chapman got their act together, I remember when those boards were avoidable at all costs.

If you are looking for something a little more mellow, take a look at the Organika line (Generator/Bareback). My Quim and Ryan boards are actually flatter than any Crailtap board I've owned, and Crailtap are notoriously on the flatter side.

Speaking of Crailtap, anyone know where they're currently being pressed? I keep hearing all types of different info whether it's China or not, but I couldn't be happier with my recent Chocolate KA board. The wood has really held it's rigidity and pop.

[Lance]

All Girl/Choco still pressed in China. 

If your looking for Chapman made Decks that aren't to steep try a RAW deck.
