So instead of starting a new post I did some homework and found a guy selling blanks from legends woodshop. These are very high quality blanks and great wood for those fan of bbs but slightly stiffer. The decks that I can confirm are Legend are the fiberglass top ones. Confirmed 100% see pics. He doesnt tell me if all decks he is selling comes from Legend (but its likely).

Hers some pics of a Fiberglass top 8.75 legend blank deck next to the Hstreet 8.5 version of same deck.



Same markings, same wood, same middle ply color. Unquestionably Legend.

Further confirmation here (look at color and size of Ron Allen fg top vs size the blank guy has)

https://h-street.com/collections/frontpage/products/ron-allen-klindt-art-p-special-street-edition

Also, the cored wheels he is selling is a true dual durometer that seems to be made by creative and identicle from autobahn dual duro also made by creative. I got a pair he added in for cheap. Deck and wheels was 35 with grip and its a very high quality deck. Wheels are shaped like spitfire f4 classics so not the popular wide shape but Im impressed by them and am riding them now. Smooth and slide is great but still hard. Imma guess autobahn dual duro 100s?? cant comfirm but theyre solid wheels about a few years old.

Just a heads up on a great deal and the opportunity to try a newer innovative woodshop's blank. Dont bother asking him about where stuff is from, he will not disclose. But you can contact him for custom orders to save shipping.





Very nice decks for those who like to try different wood/assemble process or need good blanks. Moderate steepness and mild concave.

Heres his Ebay for a fg top legend blank in 8.25".

Scroll though his auctions for other sizes or contact him for him to add wheels to your order or make it custom for you.

I cant confirm the non fiberglass ones are legend, but likely. Let me know if any of you try these. I am likely going to grab a few more now that I confirmed it. His auctions, some have wheels included some dont, contact him and he adds them for you. I only tried the cored dual duro wheels and the fg deck.

His Ebay store

Let me know if you guys get some cus these are my fav decks next to coldpress creatures.

Sick. Fonna look around later and see if he has any of the little kids sized boards I prefer. The integrated rails and reinforcements look awesome and make a ton of sense how much are those H streets selling for, shackle me not is one of the best 80s skate vids

Nice. Seems odd that the 8.125 has a wider wheelbase than the black 8.5 but Imma assume accurate. Let me know what you guys think

Straight up cookiedook dimensions....

I hit them up as well: the length of the 8.25” fiberglass deck is 31.75”, WB is 14.5”, nose 6.75”, tail 6.5”.

whoever designed that graphic should go back to airbrushing t shirts at the state fair and/or making stickers for the vending machines at second run movie theaters
Thank you for the unexpected nostalgia trip.

Agreed and Hocus Pocus of course is prob my fav vid of all time. Probably watched it 100x as it was my era. They sell their decks on their site (www.h-street.com) and it seems Socal has them too

H Street graphics and shapes are fucking dogshit.

And Magnusson is a dipshit. A total ‘face masks and closing skateparks impinge on my freedom’ kinda dipshit

Unfortunatly I agree regarding their shapes and graphics (with exception of re-issues). I have been telling him to just put a big classic black and white logo on his decks and keep it simple cus its a dope logo. This shape is nice though, its the Addison Taylor street version. Its a full popsicle and the build/feel is great. Nice mild kicks and concave and lasting pop. So having the option the get the blanks cheap gives you access to those decks, without the hstreet graphics and upcharge. Id love to support H-Street but the pool shape majority isnt my style. Id like to try this shape with the epoxy rails in a blank too but I think the minimum is 20 decks from Legend Skates

Straight up cookiedook dimensions....

I hit them up as well: the length of the 8.25” fiberglass deck is 31.75”, WB is 14.5”, nose 6.75”, tail 6.5”.

I think its off, unless they just made all boards over 8" 14.5 wb and this was a clearout.

H-streets addison taylor street and ruby taylor red fg deck as well as the socal measurements when theyre in stock
 state this:

H-street "This standard popsicle shape is made with a fibreglass top in two sizes, 8.5 with a 14.5 Wheelbase, and 8.25 with a 14.3 Wheelbase"

while socal reported the same deck with a 14.25 wheelbase.

https://h-street.com/collections/street-series/products/addison-taylor-street-p-girl-butterfly

I just measured my 8.5 and 8.75 and got these measurements.

8.75 x 32.25 14.5 wb

8.5 x 32 14.5 wb

So Im going to assume H-st and socal are more accurate, but changing a wb is very possiblly what happened. the 8" deck and 8.75 have solid measurements for me and Im liking the 8.75...Nice solid wide board with a huge nose.

Also wanted to add I got a quick hour session at the park with these wheels and I have to say, theyre good paired with minilogo bearings. I dont know if theyre going to replace my easy streets but theyre def going on the complete I leave in the car. I have had autobhan dual duros before and these do feel quite similar and it is the same shape (& look similar with clear cores)  and def worth the extra $5-10.

Found out Legend Skates now has a direct shop...and a smart rails deck with a better shape. Also blanks. These are very solid decks with good wood. I grabbed the smart rail and a blank. Sick blank deals at $35 shipped.
