graphics like that make me wish they still screen printed boards, or at least the ones with only a few colors.

what about DLX boards?  they seem to smear off rather than flake away.

The last two krooked boards i've had have been heat transfers.

Screen printed boards are the best.  Does anybody do them anymore?  The last one I had was a bueno...

pretty sure Superfishal www.superfishalsf.com is all silkscreened but they are $70 and are more art boards.

last screened deck i had was a Stereo a couple years ago, just before they split with Giant.

Thought I'd give these Deathwish boards  a try.  So far pretty good, except the graphic/paint peels off in chunks as opposed to rubbing off like normal decks.  Any ideas on that?  Anyway,

Spitfire ParkBurners 51
New Thunder JT 147 highs

Isaac making a joke at my expense, nice.

Actually, he's trying to point out that you should just fucking ignore them instead of giving them the attention they've been fighting for.

In other news, I set up a hopps cruiser board.  Indy 129s, indy bearings (they seem to be working pretty well), bones bushings and spitfire cards 54s.

7.88 AVE 'soldier'
Krux Low trucks
51 mm(smaller now)
Shop bearings
Jessup Grip

I cant tell if the wood is PS STIX or not. It says, "PS40809 (some number of the other)" I think that is PS stix. Haven't set up yet but the concave is pretty deepish. Big ass round nose, and a good sized tail (nose pissed me off, but I got it because of the rest of the board felt good)

I wish, it's a cunt hair too small for me. Haven't skated it yet, but I set up the J. Lee reissue. Long sucker, gotta be close to 32.25, almost an inch taller than the new Olly Todd.

I think it has something to do with head transferred graphics as opposed to screen print...

i wish i could post in here more often, but my last deck lasted 8 months or something like that. and my shoes are mostly old ones from sponsored friends. i think i bought 3 pairs of shoes in the last 7 years. i would love to have enough money to spend it on skate stuff.
