Damn the one with rails and Labor sticker looks sick. I think quarterly is an idea I could work with. Got two new setups between thanksgiving and Christmas and haven't got in more than a weeks worth of skating on both combined

OK. SO SCUMCO IS GETTING HELLA SALES RIGHT NOW. DID YOU EVER STOP 2 THINK MAYBE THEY WILL START LIVING IT UP? BUYING EXPENSIVE CARS AND FUR COATS? THINKING YES WE FINALLY MADE IT. I'M GOING 2 BE ABLE 2 SEND MY KIDS 2 COLLEGE AND LIFE IS GOING TO FINALLY BE EASY. AND IM GOING 2 EAT LOBSTER AND SMOKE HELLA LARGE AMOUNTS OF WEED EVERY SINGLE DAY. THEN APRIL COMES AROUND AND THEIR SALES SUDDENLY DROP OFF BY 3000%

THEN WHAT?? OK

Scumco is one of the coolest things happening in skating. Can't get into the boards because of the lengths but I'll buy a shirt or something every now and again to support.

When does voting start for the next brand? I know it would be right up the same alley and people might want to branch out to something Euro or whatever but I would like to nominate Politic. Simply because they are the only rad small brand I know of that makes boards in the length that I like (32.5) and I want to get in on this.

In the next one i was going to nominate a bunch of east coast brands and then whatever everyone else nominates too so politic

. i think traffic would be a great idea. As for when this one will end and the next will start its kind of open ended seeing as how most of us are dealing with snow and cant even enjoy our new boards.

I'm a little late to the party, but here she is. My buddy at the shop worked with Nick at scumco to get custom 8.5s with a longer wheelbase. This deep dish "5L" shape has a 14.5" wheelbase. I'm really psyched to try it out; I've always wanted to skate pennswood in the past but their standard 8.5 shape is too short and stubby for my gangly legs. Well anyways, here she is:

anyone know of any shops in the bay area that sell scumco?

if you can't find a local shop they ship for free on their site.

I'd rather stand on it first, but if I can't find a street shape I like I might just order the cap'n cruiser to shred at some point.

the shapes are perfect. not so much into their graphics though, not that it matters.

i thought this board buyers club would be much bigger. looks like there has been only 4-5 scumco purchases on here so far.

I think there has been more than 4 or 5. I'm riding one and have another 4 waiting either for the wall or to ride. Board hoarder.

I counted 13 boards bought and posted in this thread. Plus some people that said they were going to.

I'd also like to nominate politic for the next one. They just restocked all their boards on the politic site and are doing free shipping on all decks.

Scumco is sick too though. and if you guys extend it another month I might still pick one up. Just haven't had a dry day here in a long time.

Traffic is so meh right now. I've bought like 4-5 traffic decks in the past but their latest graphics are just logos. I haven't seen any video or photo coverage from Traffic in almost a year and a half either.

There are so many other companies that are really doing things that I'd rather support at the moment.

They just regrouped with toa in the last 2-3 months. Give 'em a chance.

Snack and The Northern Co. both got fresh drops that are worth supporting. Can't say I'm feeling the "new" Traffic in the least out the gate, but maybe they will hit their stride a few seasons in. I also wanna give Sleep some money soon. Love their minimal spacey graphics....
