Does anyone know where all I need skateboards is made and how the wood is? Also any info on create skateboards? Has anyone tried either of these or pizza?
Tried an 8.5 pizza deck two winters ago. Ps stix, it felt dead after not too long. Concave was steeper than a typical dlx board.

I'm very disappointed with the last two Polar boards I got...
Anyone knows if they have changed their wood ?!
Possibilities are everywhere, search and enjoy.

Quasi, Alien, Habitat, Welcome, 917, Hickey, FA, and WKND are all PS. Quasi has had a few boards that are 8.5" x 33" with a 14.5" wheelbase.

Oh sweet confirmation. I knew they were. I just wasn't sure if maybe they had changed it up.

Recently I was recently told by two shop employees at different shops that 5boro is actually pressed at Chapman. I was playing around with the boards and they seemed more solid than other Chinese decks.

Can anyone confirm or deny. Would love to get the Trahan board but I won't buy Chinese manufactured boards if I don't have to.

chapman is not chinese manufactured?????
good come sausage

Is Alien Workshop still Schmitt Stix? Bought this board at the shop last week and it kinda lost it's concave and pop after one session of flatground, then earlier today I noticed the nose had delammed and cracked. Mind you I had maybe put 4 sessions or <10 hours on it. Always loved Schmitt in the past so I'd be surprised if they've lost this much quality.

Is it a new graphic? Sometimes older boards have been sitting too long at a skateshop and won't match the quality they normally have.

PS boards are hit or miss in my experience. Some are awesome, some are horrible, and little in between. It's why I swore them off.

Guy at the shop said it came in that day. I suppose that's what I get for buying anything other than Deluxe.

Are the krooked price points made the same place where the team and pro boards ? I found only one shop in Vienna that carries krooked and they have some price point boards, but i'm not sure if they are good

Does anyone know where The National Skateboard Co presses their boards? I've always been a huge fan of their art direction and overall vibe but it's almost impossible to get their boards here in the US.

I was under the assumption that they're made at Dwindle.

If they were, wouldn't they have PRC and all the dwindle style markings on the top sheet?

I did a quick google search and there's no markings in the top ply that says where they are pressed.

correct me if i'm wrong, but here's what i've gathered so far:

PS Stix: Quasi, Welcome, some Alien/Habitat, FA, Hockey, 917, Program (Siebens new thing)

Bareback/Generator: Polar, Isle, DLX (Real, Antihero, Krooked), Killing Floor, Baker, deathwish, slave, all kayo brands (?) many others

Chapman: Coda, Zoo, Hopps, Traffic, Supreme, Alltimers?

Pennswood: Scumco

South Central: Bacon, Dieta, Politic, Northern Co, Hammers
[close]
[close]
traffic is generator now.

I'm a fan of stiff/rigid wood - Santa Cruz, SC, etc.
Not a fan of heavy, soggy feeling (not a fan of DLX anymore, they've sort of a dull feel, PS is bleh

Pennswood seems to be scumco only? Short wheelbases...who else presses there? HEAvy is dead it seems

SC has plenty of options.

I'm really chasing that squarescicle quasi 8.25" shape but not PS stix :(

Scum Co. had the investigation series (junked cars) that had a very similar/square shape to the PS Quasi shape.  Bonus = Pennswood is awesome and may be the perfect in-between from PS Stix to South Central.

Yeah, almost bit but they've got a teeny 14" WB no matter the width; much too small for my legs/stance.
