Amazing boards for the size and shapes.  I recall some had double drilled wheelbases but now they all seem to have single wheelbase options.


Re sizing options - I didn't know this for however long, but go back to saved notes every now and then to recheck.

Edited these to show the different size options.


Add space then width=XXX number you want inside the img brackets (no spaces except between img and width, eg

[ img width=300 ]



I talk too much about skateboards.  Sorry.

Easy!

I copied your pics to the Woodshop thread too.

Love a good top pic with sticker (and cool stain / shape too).


Thanks for putting up all these images.

13.625 wb is wild. Sick they are doing like proper 90s "reissiue" shapes. Actually looks like a blast to skate.

yeah they have a nice little write up here (summary for relevancy)
"then we dug up another archived shape from the @alienworkshop quiver for the sunrise colorway, this time we took @robdyrdek 90’s mantis shape, tuned it down to Bens specs and coined it the grasshopper, it’s 8.75 and rides like an 8.38 with a 13.625 & 14" Wheelbase."

are there any brands who have an 8.5 14wb as a constant? it's something i'd like to try and i've skimmed the last couple of pages but being in the UK we always end up getting products a bit later, stuff like those antiheros on the previous page etc aren't here yet. that 8.55 14.12wb kanfoush board is in stock here so if i can't find any 8.5 14s i might try that.

John Gardner has a shape on Creature that’s an 8.8 with a 14wb. It’s a twin tail. so while it’s labeled an 8.8, it feels like an 8.5.

freedome 8.75
8.75/32/14.25wb






I noticed that those new boards are not PS Stix.

The Free Dome site says USA, so whether it is just for this specific Motorhead package or a change, anyone have any other info?

8.75" Width x 32" Length x 14.25" Wheelbase

Officially Licensed Motorhead Geoff Rowley Pro Skateboard

7 Ply custom charcoal dyed veneers.

Dyed, not Dipped!

I think when they were using pennswood, yes.  Their latest drop seems to be a mix of just bbs and control. The one in the link looks to be control, and those 8.5s come with a 14.37 Wb on my experience.

Cross posting from the setup thread. I’ve set this one up with the 13.625 wb and it is an absolute joy to skate. Usually an 8.125-8.25 guy but I’m loving the feel of this board so far, it’s way fun

Can confirm that they are no longer exclusively 14in wb. The logo boards used to be all pennswood like Gene said and all had 14in wb, but from asking Ty Beall and Brian Downey it seems the pro models have a variety of lengths and wb's. if you dm Palomino I bet the dude will let you know if they have any of the old ones left. I managed to scoop pennswood 8.5 logo board from KCDC last winter, but I feel like I got really lucky.

appreciate it but like i said in the post those AH's wont be here in the UK for prolly another month atleast - always takes a while for DLX stuff to reach the UK and get sent around to shops etc. settled on a pennswood pressed lovenskate board, graphics a bit shitty but nothing some acetone cant fix.
