If I didn't just buy the 600s I'd be all over those BRN/BLK 440s at that price.

So just a heads up. Got my clearance element decks today. A whole 2 weeks to ship and a week to make it here to the east coast. No free grip

They were BBS as listed. Only the top ply is dyed. Super mellow concave with steel kicks

It's a solid deal if you fit into certain sizes for some colors seeing shoes as low as $30-40, but this is the early access, after all. Still: $50-ish bucks for some pour in G6/Michelin cups ain't bad

I'm going to guess a few more colorways/models may drop in price right before Black Friday hits as I believe they did that last year

Did you get the one that says 100 % wood or 100% maple. There are a few 8.25s im looking at and was trying to make sure how to tell which ones are BBS.

Campus 80’s. I do wish they were just a hair more padded but they work.
It’s wild that adidas jacked the price up so much, and that it seems like they rarely make decent colorways - and even crazier that adidas’ skate shoe division doesn’t produce a cupsole campus.
For someone w.no signature ur awfully hostile, & that is why I do this

Those ones were the pricepoint BBS wood over here in AU when I saw them, then the next time they were all on China wood which had the other usual China laser engraving info, so it is interesting to see they were still BBS for those ones.

Did that pic have natural top or is it yellow?  Kinda looks natural, but as you said, only top ply stained and I know when I take pics of boards, the lighter stains show the laser engraving a lot better than the darker stains.


Also I was going to copy your post to the Woodshop thread, just making sure that is ok?

Thanks.

Time to re-up on 20 dollar logo decks.

I know that I am like a broken record about this, but I can’t stress how much I enjoy these decks. And how often my friends who are skeptical about Primitive skate them and love them.

Whatever the common pro 8.125” deck is. Yeah, Ace trucks. The decks all have short wheelbases so if you have little legs like I do, they’re great. I imagine someone looking for a long wheelbase with their Ventures might not feel the same way.

I get the 7.75 primitive logo decks that cost $20 each. I put them on 8 inch venture lows and have a great time.

Nicely done. I nearly pulled the trigger on a First Gear order but I saw I was getting charged tax even though I live in a Oregon. Maybe that gets recalculated at a later time but most online stores never factor tax in when you are ordering from a tax free state and have your address plugged in.

Zero has the bailout mystery boxes again. 3 decks for 120 with free shipping. I just ordered one of the boxes to stack up 3 decks for 40 a piece. I know primitive, dgk and zero are doing them right now. All similar prices

If you put it on the shopping cart on the Primitive one and you just close the tab you'll get an email saying that you forgot and if you wait a bit longer you'll ger another email with a 15% code
Sir, I'm going to politely, but firmly, ask you and your common sense to leave this establishment.

Does anyone know which of their current decks they have for sale are BBS?  Had a couple china primitives and the shape was horrible.  Emailed them this week and this is all i got:

I would gingerly assume that any pro model deck is SUPPOSED to be BBS and that some of their team/non-pro/collab models tend to be non-BBS from time to time.

Others believe that the mystery box sales often are to offload the China wood decks that didn't sell as well as the BBS ones. All speculation since myself and others had mixed experiences with buying mystery/sale decks during black Friday, Christmas, etc. from Primitive.

When Primitive support says "newer" does that mean current drop? 3 months back? 6 months back? Who knows...

One thing to do is find your size and deck of interest on the sale and then image search or type in the deck name to see if any other shops have it. Then check their images/call them to find out if you're that invested
