And better get it straight, too.

I just got a brand new set up: Habitat Ed Selego 7.75 (a size up for me), low Thunders, Aste (Finnish company) 51mm and bearings. And black Half cabs which still give me blisters after a week of skating. I'm so over them.

I had an 8.5 toy fists but it was a scan of actual hands with Toy Machine carved in them. I didn't like it after I gripped it, so now it sits in my trunk in case I pull a fatty and snap my board.

I flip and rotate them around fairly often so they won't be out much longer, after a week theres only a slight suggestion of a graphic left anyway.

Girl boards are my favorite, never had any problems other than they seem to warp sitting on shop shelves more than any other brand I've picked up...I believe it's because they are so flat to begin with, that when they get stacked with boards with more concave, it causes Girl boards to warp...
