I'm about to set up my first board that isn't a DLX 8.25 in I don't even remember how long. At least 10. It's a Polar so it's pretty much the same thing but what do you want

Got my first Anti-Hero Eagle deck yesterday. Picked it up because of the shape but didn't realize that the wb was gonna be long even for an 8.25. My last couple of decks were both F.A./P.S. Stix were 8.25 but the wheelbase were 14.25 compare to 14.38 which the AH has. Found myself with a much wider stance for setting for any trick and even an ollie took much more effort to slide my lead foot to reach the middle of the nose. Didn't even bother to look up the actual wheelbase till i got home or tried to size it up with my previous set-up's. It's weird that .10 would make a noticeable difference. is there any other AH decks that has a 14.25 or less in either the eagle decks or possibly full shape's? won't mind if i go up a width.

The Navy Eagle logo 8.5 has a 14.25 wheelbase, it is a good shape. Small but wide.

Hey, first time posting on here.
I had a 8.25 deck and have recently ridden two Ishod twin tails, which I like but, finding it to feel a little small lately. I may bump up to the 8.38 full. Not a big jump up in width, but the W.B. and nose are longer, and the fullness factor is appealing (twin tail gets skinny feeling at the nose).
Anyone recommend going with a LowProII over a standard R1 construction?

I'd always choose a low pro II over R1, it feels way more comfy to me.

Anybody skated the binohero shape yet? I'm interested in the 8.5" 15" wheelbase, I have a transportation unit deck with those dimensions.

So I got another REAL 8.38 Full board and I'm going on my 4th or 5th one because I love them so much, but this one I got during the SW sale is warped pretty bad. I tried contacting Deluxe and real through email and instagram but maybe I'm trying the wrong person. Here's some pictures.
It's weird because I have another of the same board with the same graphic because I bought 2 and that one is fine.

I just wanted to say I am in love with the 8.06 full!  Feel free to add a lowpro slick to that size as well if there isn't one ;)

I went with a Chima 8.38 full, loved it and then it broke, totally my fault. Replaced it with a 8.38 Full Low ProII, the new Busenitz model, sooo much nicer! These LowProII's are really comfy, you're right Xen, feels so much better. They should expand these into AH and Krooked too.

Been skating an 8.38 Full deck and it's one of my favorite shapes ever. I'll probably ride these exclusively for my next few boards. Interested in trying the low Pro's too

I hope they make it a full, it's the only thing from keeping me riding Ishods TwinTails.

Seriously, I'm a sub 32", 8.3, 14.38WB little bitch but it's too damn pointy.

Word. I bought one of the Ishod twin tails but haven't had the balls to set it up yet because of the pointyness. Strictly been using it as a carpet board and it might stay that way.
