Jessup Grip

I like this shape more than the 8.25 I had. It doesn’t have that twin tail feel with big nose and tail and which makes the 14” WB cramped. W/ the venture and the 14.5 it’s proportionate cause the length of the deck makes the nose slightly short and the tail feels slightly longer due the steepness. Will try to get my hands on a few more. It’s def a keeper.

Finished with my first ever Palace board, was pleasantly surprised. Went back to the Hockey 8.44 shape though because I liked my last one so much. Hockey Nik Stain 8.44, Ace 44 Classics, F4 OG Classic 55mm (should have got 54s), Reds.

That Aileen Wournos sticker.

Was so hyped on that sticker, made sure to put it where I wouldn’t scratch it off.

Damn didn’t notice it was an actual sonogram (not just rando graphic). That’s rad as hell! Hope you get another to ride or hang that one. Also, congrats!

Think I might have found my limit for board shortness with the Nik Stain 8.44. Decided to swap boards, but the next size up I had was a gnarmaste eagle with a yellow bottom, which might be the ugliest board ever made. Spray painted over it and doodled on it with a uni paint. Apologies about the grip, I think I didn't give the spray paint enough time to cure and it was sticking weird.
