while cool-guying is a real phenomenon, studies show that 83% of all cool-guying incidents can be attributed to the cool-guyee being an awkward weirdo
cracked my fa 8.5 yesterday on an nollie varial heel attempt. broke two of their decks during covid times, either quality has dipped or i got fat my choices were to get the same shape or size up a bit. the only 8.75 my shop had in was this deck. bit the bullet even though the 13.75 wb and 31.65 length was screaming at me no. just gonna keep positive and if it doesnt work out, i have a fun cruiser and learned my limits on deck shortness. my previous shape will always be around.5boro 8.75 shred shape5.2 lo hollows w/ flat bottom washers and riptidesboardycakes benchwarmers 48.5mm 99asuper swiss 6bronze allenmob which ive liked with cupsolesaf1/jordan 1 lows shoe rotation

I've been riding the same Passport 8.38 for the last few decks but can't get them atm, anyone know of a similar shape - think it's like 14.25 WB and less than 31.75 maybe? I'm usually not a crazy dimensions guy but I like how they skate and know I don't like when decks feel too long (assuming thats as much the WB as well as actual length)
Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year
Another case of the lead feet killed another board slightly too early
quick update on the Muska deck - I'm not sure who presses Shortys boards but the wood is great. Light and crispy

I’m guessing Quincy, Clutch or Prime but I’ve never skated any of them[close]Guessing it's clutch because the description they used is pretty much copy/pasted from their website. Also I don't see shortys saying they're made in the USA (ASF/clutch is Mexico and I think I remember hearing they have another woodshop in South or Central America as well) but people will sometimes assume that because Clutch is US based and say they use 100% American maple that theyre pressing the boards here too. Did it have the clutch number/letter code on the top between the front truck holes? Prime sometimes stamps their too but they do back truck holes I think. Clutch wood is usually good, but some of the stock popsicle shapes have a longer wb and/or steeper tail than I'd prefer. The O shape is fucking great though and I've heard they have a nice flat mold too but I've never come across one.
