Updated the list to add blankcheck, as well as a few other places that sell blanks, but online stores are out of stock.

If you're ordering bulk, shipping is usually can be a pain in the but. The CCS amazon blanks are really good. I actually just ordered a 3 pack again, but I can't confirm who makes them. Also if you order the 10piece it's the best deal at 20ea not including tax. The problem is you can't mix/match sizes and colors. Some of these stores offer free shipping.

The 10-pack of the CCS blems is an even sweeter deal and $180 +Freeshipping. Depending on how you plan on printing the boards

If you're near one of these sellers, I'd also recommend shooting them a DM to see if they can offer free pickup (and possibly a lower bulk price because they don't have to pay the online retail fee & taxes)

Such a good list too!!!


Does it seem now with almost too many boards on the market, more woodshops / manufacturers are doing their own blanks?

I know some had been offering select product for a while, but others were a bit more seasonal, eg I picked up a number of BBS made blanks a few years ago through a local distro, then of course everything tightened right up but now you can get them again easily enough, direct from the skatesamples.com site.


Also just on that, I was curious about delivery costs to AU from some places and it bumps them up to higher than what I can get boards for locally, just ordering 10 or 20 from some places.

Worth checking with local distributors who might bring in boards too, for anyone doing their own brands and NOT in USA or somewhere close enough to get them from one of the wholesalers / manufacturers.

there has definitely been an increase in blank deck availability. Particularly buying quality stained blanks is easier now. No more sanding off graphics when you have that blank deck itch.

It might not be so easy to add where those places get wood, as some do make the boards themselves, while others get whatever in from China or similar.

Eg:

Drifter = make their own

Pennswood = make their own

Legend = make their own

Prime = both make their own but also bring in blanks from China (as listed on their site)

Skatesamples = BBS

Blankchecksupply = Clutch

I might try this down the line. I am super excited to know that it is an option. From what I can tell, standard BBS Standard shapes just match the WB decimal places with the width, so like 8" = 14" wb, 8.25" = 14.25", 8.5" = 14.5" etc.

Some details on the CCS






Also
CCS Blanks from Amazon, I'm assuming are Dwindle because they're called "resin" Blanks. The Sticker on the bag says it is made in China. I've ridden a few, and they are excellent boards.


I just realized I could have gotten 3 assorted blanks with grip for the same price by ordering directly off of ccs. The CCS Amazon deck link is only cheaper if you buy the 5 or the 10-pack, but since they don't come with grip, you really break even.

if you don't need grip and like a natural deck, then SO far, this is the best-priced single blank deck shipped
(assuming you amazon prime)

I know this the the "Semi-bulk" thread, but I figured I'd share my research

I've loaded up my cart from blankchecksupply.com a few times it comes to about 85aud a deck after shipping
That was for like 4 or 5 at once

I'll just keep buying R7's cheap and blanking them out

Sorry skate shops but someone has to buy your sale decks, apologies for going off topic

[FGO925]

I thought skatesamples were ps stix?

Does anyone sell bbs 8.25/14.38 wheelbase blanks? I’ve never see any blanks (even non bbs) that have those dimensions.

OCD and Surfstitch have regular sales for Dwindle stuff, R7 for $50-ish aint bad. I wonder if they will bother replacing those brands once Enjoi / Almost /Darkstar finally bite the bullet.

And almost every other shop who has a sizeable stock of Dwindle boards, but the supply of those brands was pushed so hard and wholesale cost of them were often so low compared to any other distributors board brands, so it is no wonder that there were so many of them out there.


Yeah it will be interesting to see if there is a hole in the market, or someone else steps in to fill that space with similar quality and priced boards, but it would seem a lot of the other blanks or quick fix brands that come and go are increasingly on cheaper wood from China that just doesn't hold up, so not from Dwindle or any of the better woodshops, from looking at those boards in some shops, or that people are trying to sell here and there.

I also feel like a lot of those places are not so keen on blanks, certainly not like shops used to have a whole lot of blank boards for when people couldn't afford a pro board.  Maybe too because heat transfers have become so much cheaper and easier to do, more places are doing their own graphics so will not sell blanks at all anymore.

Skatesamples uses BBS? They have the pinprick on the front truck like clutch on the website photo for the decks, but maybe that was an old pic I’m interested in tying a bbs blank out

I had meant to reply to this earlier but got distracted.


https://skatesamples.com/

They list them as "Generator Skateboard Distribution samples", on the main page in the header logo pic.

Generator Distribution is the shop board (blank) option from BBS, so although they are not the exact same boards as DLX or any other top pro brand out of BBS, they are made in the same place and are very similar in quality and feel of concave, so from riding a number of the Generator shop boards from a local shop here in AU, they skate great and if you like BBS, then they will work for you.

The shapes are generic so again, not quite the same as DLX or other pro brands, but they all seem like they are good with proportions and they work, eg normal wheelbase, normal round kicks, not pointed, not full, etc.

The sizes I have had or seen include 8.25, 8.38 and 8.5 info as below (but could be different in the new stock):


Width : 8.125"
Length : 32"
Wheelbase : 14.25"

Width : 8.25"
Length : 32"
Wheelbase : 14.25"

Width : 8.375"

I am looking at the Shape boards on skatesamples.com

does anyone know what these translate to:
GS3
GS5
GS6

I discovered these two:

GS8 =

(Old school)
GFB =

(Football board, almost like Franky's but symetrical nose/tail)

There is an image on the site and it looks to be as if it is all of those shape boards lined up in a row. Because the GFB and GS8 seem to match up to those images in the lineup. They look to be smaller old school shapes.
