Can someone give me some Generator/Bareback options for an 8.5 with a short WB?

I'm loving this Polar 8.75, mainly because it has a WB of 14.375 and not the 14.5WB of their 8.5 deck...

Thanks in advance for help Pals??

B16 from Baker and Deathwish (8.475 to be exact) and Anti Hero Navy Eagle logo deck (8.5 wb 14.25)

[close]

I never really paid attention to the B16 discussions on here...but now that they may affect my own board choices, I can see that it truly is a magical shape.? 

any idea on the size of the nose/tails on the B16 vs. the AH Eagle 8.5?? 

[close]

The Baker B16 has a shorter tail according to Socal

Baker B16
Nose: 7.125"
Tail: 6.5"

AH - 8.5 Eagle
Nose: 7"
Tail: 6.625"

thanks for doing that legwork... I always forget SoCal is so great about getting dimensions up

I would guess the anti hero isn't as pointy as the baker too. Alien makes a 8.5 with 14.25 WB that is a super full shape. Skated awesome. Max Garson chose the shape.

I am OBSESSED with the Hockey 8.5 shape. Ordered a whole bunch of them over the weekend.

Where in the hell are all of these 7.75s coming from?

Picked up two Toy decks today - both 7.75. Should get me through the summer.

Also pictured are some really muddy classic slip ons.

That shape looks great. Are toys still pressed at Watson?

Last I heard it was PS. The one on the left is one of their "budget" decks and it's labeled made in China, wheres the one on the right has no specification that I've noticed.

Nose and tail are both pretty big. I think length is 31.5

had my shop order a 9 inch anti hero eagle popsicle but it got delayed till monday, and i got anxious and wanted to skate today, so i went and grabbed the 8.75 popsicle they carry. length and wheelbase are shorter than the last 3 9 inch popsicles I've skated so its definitely a change.

Holy shit a lot of good looking boards these last few pages! Every single one. Everyone is bumping up in size. 8.25 is the biggest I can go. Good to see an Isle pop up. Micky and Clamy's AWS. Tangar, love your IG clips brother. Twist, gotta give you credit buddy you definitely march to the beat of your own drum with your setups and I respect the hell out of that.

Jud - who is that in your sig? That is one of the most beautiful ledge tricks I've ever laid eyes on. I'd trade a lifetime of something good to be able to do only that trick over and over again.

I'm with you, Heritage. I can't go over 8.25 anymore.

One of my favourites right now, so I had to pick this one up. I'm still looking for a classic Pendleton board for the wall.

check ebay, some guy in australia is selling some. pretty high prices though

[shit_for_brains]

When I think of all the Don Pendleton AWS boards I skated, broke, focused, or otherwise destroyed I feel a little foolish

[tangar]

I almost feel that way, but they skated so good!!!! I feel more foolish for just tossing all my aliens, habitats and seeks in the garbage when they were broken or done. Would have been cool to have those skated and destroyed ones.
