Are AWS and habitat the exact same shapes?
Any other brand with this exact shape?
Also shoe questions: do you like to skate superstars and / or half cabs or does it feel weird to you?
I feel like those shapes that AWS and Habitat use are exclusive to them, as no one else seems to have that same shape going on right now. From one deck of the same size (8.5) they were the same, but I couldn't say for everything in their range, but I am assuming they are, given they are run from the same place and have the same listed dimensions on their websites.
The older boards in normal shapes were the same as DLX shapes and sizes (of which I still have some) but they haven't done those more normal shapes in a while and everything I have seen lately from both brands have been pretty much the same, medium long blunt or squared off kicks with short wheelbases on the BBS made boards.
Both do seem to be different on other wood from various places round the world, with different shapes too, so just be aware of that. They are BBS in USA and here in AU, but EU might have a mix as does South Americas and Asian areas, as per people's comments about it.
Half Cabs all the way for me, but I also have a lot of different options in Vans shoes.
