Welcome, stock 139s, 58mm 80Ds, risers, dramatic grip tape. I think that the 80Ds make it harder to ollie. They're just a tiny bit too soft. But for hauling, they're amazing. This shape kickflips like a dream and is fuckin' perfect for no-complys.
i saw my grandma bail off a 4 set once in my house and she even got up and came to red lobster after.

That board is so sick! One of the best I've seen from welcome.

I totally agree about the 80d wheels. I can't skate mine for shit, but they're smooth as fuck.

What size is that welcome? I've never seen that one.
This has me cracking up, what exactly does Black Flag have to do with measuring your dick starting behind ya nuts?

Skateboarding is nothing but a game to find the right fits to appear like you're a proportional human being instead of a midget or a giant.

here's another one from the roster
neal hendrix new deal deck from 1991. the double kick was around for a couple years at the time, so the shape wasn't anything groundbreaking. i saw one of these go for $600 last year, but i like to skate mine. it even has those terrible turning gullwing street shadows. the ones with the plastic baseplate and axles that slip by pushing on them

fuck you bama

Middle board is used as my cruiser.

8.75" AH (WB is too small, you can tell just by comparing it to the 8.5" decks next to it)
ACE 66s
Indy 1/8" shock pads
60mm BONES ATFs
Zealous bearings
MOB
Bolts

It's and SMA 'Eight five' (can't really see it but that's written just under the back truck), setup with ACE 55s w/magnesium baseplates/Bones Meds/MOB/56.5mm Pi wheels/Black Panther 7s.

They're made in SoCal, I live in Santa Monica and the local shop near me carry them/tons of people around here use them (I love blocks away from a bowl/crete park where the team skates).

Tail is a bit tapered/narrow for my liking but I've moved up to 8.5" for street and swapped my Cardiel from bowl to street and needed a bowl board again (the SMA).

SMA on the Left: (tail is a bit pointy but other than that, it's very nice, plys are thin/board is light), AH Cardiel on the right.

When I found out about them I knew Id' ride'em. Hard to beat a local company in your city, especially when it's SMA. They're high quality for sure, tho they do carry a premium at the shops: $60 as they are all hand-made/stained and no two are a like.

If you are interested in getting one and they don't respond let me know and we can work something out. The shops usually have limited stock as they sell out VERY fast.

Thanks man. I'm not an expert on cruiser wheels or anything but I'd say they are good- super smooth and quiet.
