Gonz's New Beemer Shape

I think I need this in my life.  The way he describes the concave dishing out it is so hard to imagine without standing on it.  Sounds crazy, but I trust Gonz craze.

The board with the browny beige grid and flames was the board he was working on with Tommy Guerrero a while back.
I'm not super into massive boards, but I love watching Gonz in his workshop like a mad scientist.
Also, TJ flipping those stairs with that board was pretty cool.

considered buying one for my gonz stuff collection but I'd rather see it get skated by someone who actually appreciates big crazy boards.
either way, stoked to see krooked hasn't run out of surprises and weirdo shit  ;D they'll always be my favourite company.
so many great gonz pics in the feature.  http://krookedskateboarding.com/features/krooked-beemer-board-mark-gonzales/

^I have a ripsaw too, that shape flips surprisingly well. I think cause it tapers down to 8.5 (or less) where the trucks are, which also makes it pretty light.

Local kid who somehow knows gonz had one of these at the park months ago. I rode it. felt like a big flat oldschool board, nothing revolutionary. I wasn't really a fan of the camber or whatever you call the dip in the middle, but I'm sure you'd get used to it.

For $150 i'd def pass. Cool video though and I really like the weird cut outs in the bottom.

these look really sick

i just bought that 9.75 polar board with indy 215s and it has been a lot of fun

definitely recommend getting a big board

Has anyone actually rode one? I get paid tomorrow, but I don't know about the wheelbase, since the length is 34".

The Anti-Hero Gross/Chris Strople tribute deck seems like a more usable early '80s shape (it's modernized with an upturned nose). I have a feeling Gonz made these just to have something that fits Indy 215s.
