I might be wrong but I think that's their old Barbee shape.

This one?

Not for me personally but found this for any small wheel enjoyers out there. Ground and Sea has Spitfire lil smokies in a couple of size options for ~$20.

Cool find, you can buy Shorty's hardware by the box of 10 or 25, that should last you a good while. And you can stock up on pivot cups, bushings, axle / kingpin nuts and speed rings.

Lol it's funny you say that because that's how I came across it.  I was stocking up on all the random things like speed rings, bushings and nuts when I saw they had the lil smokies for cheap.
[close]

I would stay away from these guys. I purchased a bunch of random hardware and stuff from them and when I got the order the quantity and style of some of the items I ordered was wrong. The order also took awhile to ship. I reached out to them multiple times to try and fix my order, but I never heard back from them.

Sorry, old sub thread, but I just got scammed by these guys so to speak. For the exact same product, the lil smokies. They claim they have them in stock, and a week went by and I emailed them about my order, and they said that they are still being shipped but they don't have a tracking # or ETA. Let's see if I even get my money back. Stay away indeed.

Just bought 2 Element decks for $40 !!
I’m a new, older rider (38)

What trucks/setup should I use to help give my pop a little help?

8.0 element 31.75(L) 14.25(wb) 6.35 tail
8.25 element  32 (L)  14.25(wb) 6.5 tail

I currently own ccs trucks with 52” wheels -8.0
Indy trucks with 54” wheels - 8.25

Should I get new trucks combos ?

i would probably replace those ccs trucks with either thunder 147s or venture 5.2 if you want to have a size 8" truck in your quiver. those trucks push out the wheelbase slightly resulting in a heavier pop feel which feel nice when you do get a solid snap.

i would say pop is more affected by your technique than trying to fine tune a truck/setup combo, but that's just my opinion. others may agree/disagree

Hows the fit on the element clothes? I’m tall with a few extra pounds. I’m an XL that runs big or a slim XXL.
Might be early to jump in on a sale this week but they have some damn good deals.

I have one corduroy jacket. The length is perfect for my height (5’ 10”) but it’s a bit on the slimmer side.

DC, RVCA, Quiksilver and Billabong always have the same sales as Element since it’s owned by the same parent company. If anyone needs cheap surf or snowboarding gear, now is probably the best time to buy.

Haven't owned any gear from Element since I was a wee lad wearing my brother's hand-me-downs but I decided to try the Burley Chino's for $17.50
Same. Reminds me of the Donny Barley, Hughes, Cannon, Pepper, BAM, natus, Forbes days. Element had an epic team

For awhile I rode Kenny Hughes featherlights exclusively. 

Yeah, I caved and ordered the Burley chinos and jeans. 
I did want to give them a try, so win/win.   
Enjoy your life.

I've ordered this deal a few times. I selected the size I want, and specified the shape in the comments, they shipped exactly what I asked for each time. I was both stoked and surprised.

Asked for 2 couches, got em. Asked for a couch and a loveseat, got em. Asked for (2) 8.5 twin tails, got em.
Wow sorry, didn't realise I was dealing with a sick cunt here
