Spring freshie: Magenta Leo Valls Free Jazz 8.25"x31.75" 14.125" WB (second time on this graphic/shape, it's my perfect board - Limosine seemingly uses the same shape too in case I get sick of brown), Thunder Team Hollow 148 (no red on boards, so I swapped the stock 90a red bushings for aftermarket Thunder 90a white bushings - I think they look clean af), Spitfire F4 93a Reynolds 53mm, Reds, Jessup, Ace 7/8 allen bolts

Not pictured: Cons Fastbreaks Skateshop Day black/blue - amazing shoe, wish all the colorways didn't suck usually.

Same except for Reds. Dims on that board are perfect for me. Wanted to skate Thunders for so long but those trucks are for people who are good at skating 😅

They are lows so same as V in height but with a softer pop

Wait, is that a different Magenta 8.25 shape?
I will measure mine later, got a Big Plant Team deck in 8.25 third time in a row now.

*Edit

Measured my 8.25 deck.
These are the specs:

8,23" (20,9 cm) 
31,85" (80,9 cm) 
WB 14,23" (36,15 cm)
T 6,65" (16,9 cm)
N 7,05" (17,9 cm)

Maybe pro model decks have a slightly different shape?

They have 2 8.25 shapes - one is a bit longer and has a 14.25wb, it's basically a wider version of their 8.125 shape.

Blurry pic... apologies...

last unused popsicle in my pile...



8.5 Ishod Twin (terrible graphic, can't wait to destroy) Steepest DLX board I have had in a long time with a 1 stamp. I typically like IVs the best.

Swiss 6
Jessup.

First time posting in this thread. Bought the bloard because it was bbs and my dims of choice (8.125 x 14 x <32) but had to marker-paint the ugly graphic. Thunder team hollow, f4, quantum isotopes. Uncle Fred fits well I think. Massive shouts to @PuffinMuffin for the supply with Slap stickers.

i mean all of us have to be thinking it: that graphic is now so nice
bravo

[devils acrobat]

Thanks, I am quite stoked on how it turned out. Was thinking of adding some clear coat to protect Fred.

Really enjoyed the Limo 8.6 I had last year, so I went back to the well.
Limo Palmer 8.6
Ace AF1 60 Lows with hollow axle hangers
Spitfire Reynolds F4 93a Classics 52mm
Acer titanium 7/8s
CCS Ceramics (these are surprisingly good)
Pepper grip

The 93s are great! Really no discernible difference in slide (compared to my usual F4 99s) when I took them to the curb spot. I recorded a few slides on my phone, I'll post that video in the formula four thread

I too continue to be impressed w/ the slide on these 93s.
Not a soft wheel guy by any stretch, but I will decidedly NOT be passing mine along to friends, as they are such an enjoyable ride.
Sorry, F4 97s: your younger sibling is just better at doing all of your “tricks.”

Did you happen to know what woodshop was used for your board? 

Or if there was anything to distinguish it, eg:
BBS - dot / dimple mark between front bolts
Clutch - letter and number between front bolts

Thanks.

Blind 7.75 price point deck with black magic grip
Venture 5.0 lo cast with stock purple bushings.
Spitfire f4 classic 51 bones swiss 6

Board is so fucking good. Tail is mellow, mellower than a mini logo. Nose is steep but still mellower than most DSM and doesn't have much concave. Almost perfect board for me, sturdy like a dsm with a flatter mold.Graphic and brand are whack. I just use the "Gideon Choi skated theese graphics" idea to not bum myself out

Rotating dunks, japan pros and AF1s

Looks sick dude!
I know the Blind Reaper is considered wack and all but those graphics are what I would see when I was really young and started look at some skate related stuff. So based on nostalgia I would buy a reaper graphic to hang on the wall (and maybe skate?)
