Squared nose?
« on: February 23, 2017, 09:03:14 PM »
Who makes a squared nose popsicle like that Scumco shape? 8.5" or wider. I can't ever find their boards.

That "investigative reports" deck was great.

Some good and bad, info in this thread.

That Scumco sent me on a mission for that shape (but with a longer than a fourteenfuckinginch wheelbase). WTF do they think everyone is 14 or super fucking short? Anyway...

WKND or Quasi - that's it. The others are mentioned are 'shaped' noses, not squared off. Don't be fooled by the Baker 'squared' nose, it isn't compared to those I listed but it IS more square than their pointy regular decks.

The WKNDs are more square than the Quasi.

I went with a Krooked 8.75" full shape.  It's not as square as the Scumco but I like it.

Never been a fan of squarish shapes, but as others in here have mentioned, wknd's are pretty damn square. Got a wknd koston 8.5 deck that I got as a gift last year that I was planning on skating but the shape is just too square for my liking so it has just been sitting under my bed this whole time; it would just bother me too much if I were to skate it, I'm too used to B-16 style boards with rounder/pointier noses. I might end up skating it one day if I'm ever in desperate need of a board and too low on funds to get another one or something, but for now it remains tucked away in waiting.
But yeah, wknd, FA and hockey boards, and a lot of the more recent toy machine boards are all pretty square looking to me. I think it's safe to say pretty much the majority of the stuff that comes out of PS stix.

Yep.  My Quasi is the most square shape I have had in a long time.  Nice weight, feel and pop too.

As previously noted, WKND > Quasi when it comes to which is more square; I rode both in 8.25 and felt the quasi was just a tad better feeling overall (it felt lighter and stiff compared to the soggy and bulky WKND, whimch I a riding now)
