I like it. One of my best feeling setups is an 8.38 FA on 5.8's. Still getting used to it, but it feels roomy and snappy at the same time.

I guess these are the times we are living in. Love this shape. Might turn one into a wall board, but will probably end up skating it. If this GX order of an 8.125" arrives before this one is dead I will skate the GX board in between to switch it up.

Polar 8.25
Ace 44 (no bottom washers)
F4 55mm 99a

Coming down from my 10.5” Scram and 9.75” Dane1, this will be interesting... Almost want to try Classic shaped wheels. Pros/cons over Conical Full?

Always cool to see madness and polar have these wheel well decks, but im curious to see if it actually makes a difference?

My last three boards all had wells, and I can confirm they’re the least gimmicky gimmick there is. They actually make enough of a difference for me to pick something will wells over something without.

Loved this board. If I wasn't poor I'd buy as a wall board. Pretty sure it's not pressed in a size I'm comfy with.

I remember that somebody already asked but I can't remember any answer, what's the deal with that acid ply thingy?

Medium mellow, wheelbase is long tho so makes it feel more steep.

Acid ply is just some paint thing i think, nothing special.

What do you do with your tail? It looks like it's wearing down super fast.

Woah, don't really leave man. I feel like shit because I laughed

i don't mind a good old tail drag, its just the way that bro jumped to conclusions asking you to leave.

Go have a look at Butfartrapedick's profile, i think it was his first post he did not know how to grip a board. Now it seems like he grips 2 a day and posts 20 times a day, some of the nicest looking boards out and actually give valuable advice to some brothers.

Just keep at it bro or should i say keep scraping

I tail scrape all day, too. Who cares? It’s a skateboard, it’s not meant to last forever. It’s meant to be abused.

Plus, skidding to a long, slow stop by dragging your tail on the ground looks fucking rad.
