I’m not that well versed on girl popsicle shapes but this one caught my eye. It’s not in the shape guide so it must be new. I’ve never had a girl board but I like everything about this deck.

It reminds me of the Baker Kader board that someone traded in and I still have set up for people to try = 9 with 14.25 wb and pretty much that same length.

That thing I have on Indy ti 169s and 52 mm wheels is just a little too short for what it is, but is quite interesting to see people do pretty much anything on it that they might on their smaller boards.


As you said, the SW listing here:

Gone since 1988.  I talk too much about skateboards.  Sorry.

I think t-funk was on that size for a while too, a couple of his pro boards were 9 x 14.25

Seen him on the "big bodies" shaped 9 x 14.25 as well

His more recent pro boards for sale have been 8.75 x 14.25, I wonder if that's actually what he's skating now

.

I was going to add in here the funny posts from Polar and Heroin about their boards, but I think people might not get them, or at least only get it when they see the comments of each brand with hearts to the other one.

Any which way, the new Polar shaped deck looks like a good one for this thread, with posts of it already in the Setups thread:



Polar In Search of The Miraculous - BMX Dreams (Eyeball Shape)
8.85 (Widest Point)" X 31.75"
Nose: 6.85"
Wheel Base: 14.25"
Tail: 6.5"

I pulled the trigger on this last week. Will report back here when it arrives. Crailtap has reportedly moved production to BBS, so it's very possible this is just the Kader shape that other folks have mentioned. I've never had one of those so I won't be able to confirm.

nice to finally see scram coming out with shorter wheelbases, they're always long. his art hasn't hit the same as a lot of older graphics, hope to get a scram in the future that checks all the boxes for my liking, that one ain't too bad though

Does my salba count? 8.88 egg kinda w a 14 wb.this thing skates about as small as I’ll probably ever go again, but it’s perfect every line is spot on. That opera thing might be cool to customize into something else but I’m not feeling it either

I usually like to have a sc or Powell pig shape around and I’m crazy about the salba. Don’t think I’ll ever get trucks below 875 again , but anything above 215s looks dumb to me

I don't think scram really does much of anything these days since Jesse left years ago

Have girl/chocolate stopped making the 13.75
wb Loveseats? I wanted to go back to skating that shape but hesitant if I can’t stockpile them. I can’t seem to find any in Aus and doesn’t seem to be many new ones coming.

I skated this shape for a few years and would be a bummer to not have that option anymore.
