I hope this is a resurgence of more habitat in here, sure most of the team bailed but the boards and shapes are great

really liking this shape. decided to put together a “tech setup” first time ever having 50mm wheels and it’s been about 15 years since I’ve skated something below 8”. definitely helping with the flip tricks. highly suggest a b&c deck.

yea, they have that graphic in a few different sizes. I was gonna get the 8” in this graphic too but it was sold out. I’m normally a fan of very flat boards, but this one I like, it’s definatley on the medium side. very round nose/tail.

May use my Thunders with this one

- Anormal (chilean brand) 8.5x 32.25 x 14.25 looks like a full shape.
- Jigsaw griptape (also a Chilean brand, seems grippy enough but this one is a little blue glitterish)
- Thunder 1" allen
- Venture V-Lights 5.8
- F4 99 classics 53mm
- Swiss 6
This will be my main setup, for winter, since I don't care about screwing this board.

Chilean boards are hella good, I'm almost certain a lot of brands make their boards with Generator or at least seemed that way (I know this may not seem like something that impressive, but in Latin America local board brands don't always have the best quality boards) last board I had was a Wisdom 8.25 and it had best shape I've ridden.

Overall Chilean quality is pretty good, this one it was pressed here with Canadian maple and all that jazz.
I'm curious and scared.

pleasantly surprised to read this. i was reminiscing recently and came to the realization that my first "real" board was just a knock off Element heat transfer on a plank with no concave. Took me over a decade to see the obvious....

[Saint Coke]

Does anyone know of board brands with medium to steep concave? I am currently skating a deathwish but it's a little too flat for my tastes.

[yourbreakfsat]

Set up a new cruiser. I wanted to support my local during these times, and have a cruiser that's lighter than my old one.



Krooked Dan Drehobl Spinaul 9.25" x 31.8" with adjustable 14.25"/14.75" WB (I have mine set to 14.25")
Indy 169 with Bones Hardcore Mediums
OJ Mini Hot Juice 55mm 78a
MOB
Bones 1/8" risers (I'm going to replace them with 1/4" risers in the future)
1" hardware

It rides and skates pretty nice so far and the wheels actually slide (not as good as a hard wheel), but I was doing stalls on a parking block and tiny chunks of the wheel came off already. Not big enough that it affects its performance, but it's still a little disappointing.

any dlx stamped with a I or II, generally and politic, 5 boro or doa unless otherwise noted as flat. scumco deep dish concave.

Check out the wood shop 2020 thread and look at the brands that South Central makes (DOA, Politic). Pennswood makes a great deep concave deck too but they are hard to find.

Is there any 8.5s out there with a 14in WB?

[close]

Business & Company but stock is hella low

[close]

Surprised that they haven’t put the next line up. Dude that works there sent me the line sheet and said it was going to drop March 20th so I’ve been checking waiting for it to go up

Free Dome has a 8.5 with 14"  it's the one with the fire hydrant graphic. Check their web thingy

If by hardware you mean the two missing mounting bolts, they are probably not missing, its just that wider Indys (159+) have the old mounting pattern in addition to the new standard.

Thanks its my first big board in a very long time, it is fairly easy to flip compared to the olden days shaped boards. It is not bbs but it has a pretty decent pop to it. I will take a top pic and report back.
