I think there is a new wider Grimple Egg due out this summer (bigger WB also)
and more importantly,
a cardiel huffer model again.
OMG cant fuckin wait to try that shape! I'm always switchin back and forth the 8.75 and 9.0 classic eagle and thinking how the Cardiel shape looks like the perfect middle ground... So pumped \/
Hands down, the best shape ever made.
Oof. I'm crossing fingers that my local will order ASAP!
Isn't the Girl "phawt" shape the exact same? I thought they made it for Cory because he kept skating those cardiel boards.
They’re very similar, and too my knowledge they did make it for Cory for this reason.
Here’s the dimensions of the two:
Phawt:
Width: 9.125
Length: 32.625
Wheelbase: 14.75
cardiel huffer:
Width: 9.18
Length: 32.62
Wheelbase: 14.82
If you hold them up together they're exactly the same, at least that was the case when I had one of each. DLX likes to put wacky numbers so that those of us with OCD will bug out.
The Phawt is good. People have a thing against the Craig wood because it used to suck, but now it is pretty nice.
I’d probably prefer the phawt these days, I like the latest Craig wood.
I had two of those Cardiel huffers. Shape was really fun. It’s a beast tho. Unbreakable. Bbs back then was better than it is now imo.
Anyways finding the right trucks always trips me out, I tried it with 159s, 169s, 151 hollow lights. Maybe liked it best with the thunders....
