I love the 32.125 X 8.25 shape and noticed that they usually only do 1 pro graphic and one Proto graphic per drop in that shape.

Wondering if this shape is solely PS Stix or if they started making it in BBS too.

The Jake Johnson board in this current drop:

If anyone wants the new Bledsoe 8.375 for cheap I'll sell mine brand new. It's BBS but the nose is really steep- like FA steep but not squared. My toddler was having a meltdown at the shop so I didn't get to compare it to other decks I know and realize this before buying.

I'm interested yo. If you still have it.

Anyone know the nose and tail length on this size?  I was considering it for my next deck.

The nose is steep. Pretty much a shovel nose. Almost like a Hockey or Alien nose.

Nah, my friend had that one and it was not steep. Almost as mellow as the Proto. Tail is 6.55 and nose is a tad under 7. I love that shape.

The 8.25 that has a length of 32.2 that was a BDK deck in that drop has the square/steep nose.

I wish they would just use a shape code.

I’ve stocked up on this shape in just about every Quasi drop since 2015. Relative to Crail boards which I rode almost exclusively from the 90’s through then, this shape has a Shock G Humpty Hump sized schnazz.

Which is more mellow?  The 8.25 x 32.125 or the 8.25 x 32.375?

The 8.375 32.125 is mellow, but it's confusing now since the BBS shapes seem to be steeper

Ok

I had one that had sort of an egg shape, but not quite - it was nice but I never really connected with it. Most of the acid ply boards have a fuller shape and I think there's an 8.625 in this drop.

Idk

Is acid ply actual different shapes or just new/different graphics?

You have to look at each deck. Some of the BBS shapes are new and seem to be steeper versions of Limo shapes

So other than the length and wb of their two 8.25 decks, is there a difference in the shape/steepness?

People say Tactics is wrong, but this looks very accurate to me.

SPECS
SIZE   8.25
LENGTH (IN):   32.125  *  more like 31.8 measured flat across (PS Stix measures with the concave)
WHEELBASE (IN):   14.25
NOSE (IN):   6.875
TAIL (IN):   6.5
I talk too much about skateboards.  Sorry.

Do other quasi decks have the same shape as the 8.25 proto too? Or is it exclusive to the proto?

Lots of the Quasi team decks are the 8.25 Proto. Email them and ask they are super responsive and helpful about how to identify which decks are which specific shape. I like the mellow 8.38 and Proto so I email when there's a drop I like.

In an effort to curb my madness and skate the gear I have, I set up an old 8.125 PS Quasi I thought I'd given up on. Coming from a super stiff Palace, it felt completely limp the first couple times I tried it. I was so bummed because the shape and dimensions seemed perfect at the shop. 

I love this thing after today's session. It felt snappy and had that nice whip that I look for in a deck. I hope Quasi keeps this shape at PS because I will buy them if I see them. It's flat, short, with a mellow tail, blunt kicks, and under 14.25 WB. Lovely. It's listed as 8.125 x 31.75 x 14.125 but definitely more like 31.5 long if you measure normally.

ahha can relate to this all so much. They always seem to get better after sitting for a little bit. Maybe i will dust off those acid ply decks from the stack

cheers!

Lol. Eldee is definitely a human. He’s like a raider on horse back who’s kinda scared to do battle. Somehow he closes his eyes and swings his sword wildly and wakes up in a pile of dead orcs.

How many different shapes do quasi make? Iv got a JJ board right that doesn't have the sqaure kicks they normally have (loving the shape) also had the world wide graphic that had a different shape to. I'm aware they make egg shape boards to but it made me curious what their other shapes are like

From my recollection:

8.25:
1. Proto shape
2. square shape with 14.25 WB
3. less square shape with 14.38 WB
4. Twin Tail
5. 14" WB shape

8.38:
1. 32.125 shape, which is square
2. 32.2 shape, which is not square, more mellow, slightly longer tail, great shape love this one.
3. Twin Tail

8.5:
1. 14.25 WB shape 32.25 listed length
2. 14.5 WB shape, 33 listed length, super square

Can't recall anything else but I know they have 8, 8.125 with tiny tail, some new twin tails, 8.6, 8.75, 9, football

How is the concave?
Skating a g027 right now and I think it’s pretty flat, right? I like alien and fa concave. How is quasi?


Also do other quasi decks have proto shape too? 8.25
