I skated a buddies gently used 9" Stu Graham Creature deck a few years back. Mucho respect to anyone flipping anything that wide. Kickflips were celebrated accomplishments.

Pop is snappy and explosive of that makes any sense. Tail is 6.4 (nose 6.9). Feels really good.

:CINCINATTI has per post in set up thread. Haven’t seen in hand but would prob pair with 169’s as well.

it has identical dims to the antihero orange eagle at 9.0/33.25/15WB but i think the alien has a fatter nose.

on the antihero i ran 149s, 151s, and ace 55s in an attempt to get decent flips with the huge wb and 8.75 axles felt best. for transition, the 9.0 axles won no question

Dug these old fellas outta storage. Really wanna set up the Heated Wheel Vert board but I doubt I’ll ever be able to get another one.

I’ve had the Gonz forever and reckon I’ll set that up next.

yeah for sure. I like fatter nose. I flip flop on the size tho. And then I remember I never skate transition and mostly cruise to a curb so I don’t even know.

The raised part of the grip up front makes your board look scared.

Nice set up, but I am going to need that grip tape fixxed at your earliest convenience. Please and thank you.

Nice! How do those Oj’s slide? I have some 56mm 101 mini combos that I thought would slide are a lot stickier than I thought. Curious how the 99 are because oddly enough my F4 99a’s always slide better than the 101’s I’ve tried. Wondering if it’s the same with ojs

sized down from my 9.5 antihero/gnarhunters deck and got this shin sanbongi 9.0 polar board about a month or so ago(or whenever it was released). It's been fun, updated pic was from a few weeks back. my bushing broke and was leanin' pretty hard.

shape was nice. deck has just about run its course at this point though

update** found pics of my last deck:

Niiiice, I wanted to get one of those Antihero/gnarhunters 9.5 but looks like they are sold out in the us everywhere. Shape and dimensions look pretty perfect!

Black Label's Lucero Racing Stripe 10” x 32.875“ set up with the 15.5WB
Independent Stage 8 with Bones Soft bushings and Riptide Pivot Cups (Original plastic components had blown out)
Spitfire Formula Four Conical Full 55mm
Bones Swiss Bearings
Shorty's Hardware
Mob Griptape
Independent 1/4" Riser Pads

Happy with how this wide ride came together and my inner child is hyped on the matching colors and sticker job. Thanks for the board suggestion Yourbreakfsat and Uncle Poseur. Also scooped the Antihero Ol Yeller for when this board eventually comes to it's end.

Rick Howard Skull of Fame 9.25x32x13.875 (I think it's the Powerslide shape)
Matte black 55s
F4 classic 101a 56mm

It's the widest board i've ever owned by a long shot, but the shape feels tiny. the aces pull it in super tight, i don't know if i like that yet, pretty keen to get a proper skate in on it

That looks so fun.

ANYONE HAVE AN IDEA HOW WIDE THIS COUCH SHAPE IS OVER THE TRUCKS? WONDER IF I COULD SWING 44'S OR 149'S ON IT....

dont have the measurements on hand but 149 is the lowest id go personally without it feeling too weird. 44s would be pushing it

A friend rides venture 5.8 on couch and it was just fine. Depends on how mental you are about magic carpet.
