Title: SHOP DECKS THREAD
Post by: Fooj on March 16, 2022, 09:54:18 PM
As much as i love the brand name stuff, I always appreciate seeing a good shop deck with creative local graphics. 
I forgot to grab a Val Surf for the wall before i left LA, but here are 2 i picked up from my new local in Seattle. Hoping to see some cool pics from other areas.

They are BBS, from what someone else had said who works there.

Not sure what the other stamp is though.

This would be really good to help get more info for the Shop boards post in the Woodshop directory too.

Anyone else have anything to add, post here, or in the Woodshop thread.


Thanks.

My number one goal in life is to convince my local to switch from clutch to BBS. I love them but those clutch boards are so brittle for me.

I sometimes wonder how difficult it is to get boards, or what sort of quantities are needed for BBS / Generator boards.  Seeing all the things that say you can never get anything direct from them and have to find a middleman to get any is curious, even the fact that there are some seemingly random people selling BBS / Generator boards in smaller quantities, but also the wait time on some orders is still quite long too, unless something has changed or someone gets preferential treatment.


I also wonder about some selling blanks from various woodshops, as if someone bypassed the requirement to have graphics added before sale, or if some slipped through or whatever.
