Thinking of getting a Zoo York deck because nostalgia/regional pride.  I saw Chapman mentioned awhile back in the thread, but does anyone have any recent experience with them?

The local company I get boards from are pressed at Chapman and they've been treating me pretty well.

Have you ridden a Girl deck recently? The new wood they're using is way better now.

I love when people are like "DGK has the worst wood ever!  I only skate Real and Polar!"

that's why Cab addressed it right, you're not a board company if you don't press your boards, you're a board brand/graphic designer firm.

looking at their insta, DGK seems like a clothing company that makes skateboards

what's the current word on toy machine decks?

[pointandclick]

what's the current word on toy machine decks?

the current word is: garbage.

[Sativa Lung]

I’ve never had a south central but I just got a bacon and I love it. Hoping the pop stays. It’s a little more concave than I usually skate and I’m into it.

I recently started skating a SC deck too, it's a DOA "flat as fuck" and I really like it. It's up there with Quincy and BBS/Gen (but still slightly below good Pennswood) at the top of my list.

Does yours seem to be thicker or less rounded than other decks? I don't know if its a SC thing or a product of the flat concave or embossing process but it sorta seems like the bottom ply isn't rounded off or sticks out more than other decks I have. It's most noticeable at the nose and tail, you can really feel it when you hold the deck vertically from the top.

They are PS Stix. I've been riding one for a couple weeks, I had a foundation before that. I like the 8.38 shape they have, I think I liked the Foundation shape better though.

PS has been one of the best woodshops ever....but recently people have had a few complaints leading me to think they can be a bit inconsistent.

I've skated about 10 PS board over the last 6 months and haven't had an issue with a single one

reach out to the reps, make the list yourself, and share with the thread. You have more access to this information than most!

thanks man!

[cosmicgypsies]

OP list has Habitat under Jart for EU pressings, is this still true/relevant? I've had a fair few boards out of Jart and they've all had solid shapes, my friend picked up one of the Habitat NASA boards and this shit has one of the weirdest shapes I've ever seen. 8.5, nose is very big and square very similar to Hockey boards but the tail is ultra short, kind of squared off almost and there's zero concave on the thing. Like you set up for a 360 flip back foot in the pocket and it's just flat, feels like standing on a fucking table.

Does anyone know which wood-shops ThankYou and April skateboards are using.

[jtrpma]

i've heard that quincy might be going out of business after messing up a few orders this year.

[NORTHBYMIDWEST]

Anyone know where Send Help decks are made? they used to have made in the midwest stickers so I figured Quincy was making them but not sure.
