Let me see your Evil Beemers.
How much are they retail? and are they BBS or a special wood shop?
I'm getting old and fat like Gonz. Maybe I can learn backside lip slides on curbs? Probably not, but I am still tempted to hunt one down on SSD for the challenge...

I also picked up one of the Kevin Rodriguez beemers but haven’t set it up

it's like trying to ollie an ironing board, but lots of fun, especially on ramps.

Here's mine, it was the blue/white/yellow stripey one but I can't stand the graphic.

This is the beemer 2

Beautiful Beemers. I hope they are getting used.
I think I'd use Thunder 181s if I had one.

(neither of us will ever own one)

Clearly the right answer is 77s
(Smiles through the pain)

I was skating mine exclusively and got really used to it but it eventually made my go-to 8.5” board feel tiny. I have 215’s and 60mm wheels. Took a few bushing swaps to get it right

Special SSD release

sorry for the dumb question, but how come these are so expensive / limited and hyped? seems like it would be a shame if you ended up loving the shape.
-
well, they probably take twice as long to route and sand as a regular board, then there's the mold, then ect....
-
a skateshop chain in my country has some of the ssd beemers on their online shop but they are selling for 3 times the cost of a regular board (like 200 usd) and I dont know if i can justify the purchase lol

The MSRP on them is $125 , resellers usually post them for 300+… maybe your shop is splitting the difference… still pretty steep
-
Love the idea but I have accepted I really wouldn't use it that much. Good luck to those of you on the hunt tomorrow.

yeah ill skip on it, realized I would then end up needing 10" trucks and probably want to make it a christmas complete and be $500 in the hole hahah.

I got lucky and was able to get one. I did some frontside ollies on a ramp with it and they felt really cool. Some parks and spots I go to get a little boring, so I like to have a shaped board in the car to spice things up. I'm gonna need to switch to Thunder 181's asap though. I was fooled by the marketing; no matter what the stage, Indys just don't work right for me

Thunder pop is undefeated

I wanted one as a dog pulling sled but my homie gave me a nice sculpture cruiser deck. So I can't really justify the purchase. But would probably be great for those 25 mph mushers
-
Been wanting one for a while definitely hyped to finally get my hands on one. Gonna probably throw some bigger wheels on it

Stoked to see one being ridden. The Jersey Barrier carve looked great on that thing and so did the kick flip.

Right?!?
I love seeing it skated like its a just some regular set up.
Very much props.
Gnar'd.

Looks like another full size Beemer on the way in Fall.

Man, I wanted one for a while, then finally ordered one online and it was the mini version, it’s so short I took the trucks off and now it’s just another board in my closet. Kinda bummed

the coupe is kinda disappointing.
pretty hard to mistake one for the other even in shop pics though.

hopefully they make as many as they did coupes? or you think the coupe just didn't sell well and that's why it looks like they made a lot?

Ehh not really, but the shop I ordered from didn’t have any sizing listed on their site, either way I’m bummed

The Coupe has no nose. It’s easy to tell them apart.

buddy has this board with 181 thunders and I was able to pop a switch heel on it the other day. Felt fucking wild. Really fun board , pop shoves, manuals , fs airs all feel so cool .

I’ve been trying to get my hands on a Beemer for a couple years now but best I could do was the Ladybug and I can’t see myself setting it up. And the coupe definitely looks too small.

I have the coupe. It’s kinda fun, but definitely not my favorite. Hope to get a full size one eventually
-
I picked up a coupe in the skate shop. Looked crazy short. I might try for the next drop. Thunder 181s for me. Those things are pretty damn light for their size.
-
Beamer coupe is even shorter than the zogger :o
Kinda feels like a rip off considering how similar they are and the Beamer is twice the price
-
Having both a Coupe and a Zog on ice right now, they’re not very similar in shape, and the expense in the Beamers come from the unique mold and the extra cutting/routing/finishing.
