GX1000 Brand

Stoked on the swap to BBS!

Has anyone bought a pair of the dimethyltryptamine pants? Looks pretty dope.

Yeah I actually just picked up a pair from my local skate shop.  They're sick.  I normally wear a 36 true to size, but I was able to get these in a 34 waist.  You could definitely size up and not be wearing clown-ish panats for sure.

I see they have the red (wine) color ones on sale on the website for only $40 right now too.

They fit slimmer than a Polar surf and they're more tapered than a Polar 93 for reference. They're not a true denim but they feel like a really soft denim and they're great to skate! 

Hope this helps.

Kick angle is easy to measure with a smartphone and some bubble level app.

I'm skating the PS 8.625 currently, and just managed to get the BBS version on offer, kick angle is loads mellower on the BBS, and it's 3/4" longer overall.

Left board is: GX1000 - Jeff Carlyle Buck 8.25 (PS)
Right board is: GX1000 - phonehome 8,25 (new BBS)

The new bbs phonehome is 81,5cm(thats 32,1in) and way more squared, liked the cyan blue and simple draw on it but that pictures didnt really convinced me..

So it looks like all of their decks are BBS now.  Are these BBS GX shapes similar to Hockey/FA?  Is the nose as steep?

all vibrations go straight to your soul

Soryy to bump this again - just seeing if anyone can compare the steepness of the nose to hockey/fa on the BBS shape.  It looks nice and square from the pics - I just want to know how steep that nose is before I try one.  Thanks.

I'm currently skating an FA and just ordered a GX from the Spot sale. I can post pics once it arrives

[Thebird]

That would be awesome.  Thanks

been skating an 8.6 GX for a couple months now and i love it

[SupremePizza]

Gx is 8.38 and fa is 8.25. Gx is noticably longer, slightly tapered compared to fa, kick on the nose is mellower, concave looks about the same or slightly mellower

I want one of those Bomb Hills hoodies but not looking to pay $80 shipping. Wonder if any Canadian shops carry them. Couldn't find any at the 10 or so sites I searched tonight.

Menu in Vancouver bc usually has gx stuff in stock.

I ended up getting one of the t-shirts instead and it was the shittiest gildan blank that's ever touched my body. I wiped the sweat off my brow skating one night and it scratched my forehead lol. Needless to say, I'ma pass on any of their clothing from now until forever.
