These are the last four boards I‘ll buy for months . I already have 6 other decks waiting to get skated, but who knows what’s going to happen to board production/distribution in the short term. I’m hoping that what I have will last me the next 4-6 months
Sure buddy.....
Was going to try one of the Krooked Pricepoints decks a while ago, hope they are good.
AH John Cardiel 8.06
Came with 149 Thunder Team Standard (Green and Purple), Spitfire wheels and bearings. I'll keep the board (because Cardiel) and sell the rest for parts. Only unfortunate thing is the grip is the flaming Spitfire one.

I’m so curious about you:
You are not a child.
You are decent at skating.
You have means.
Why do you buy these wack combo-paks from what I can only assume are fucked up channels? I don’t understand it. I know you are in Europe or something, but wtf. You don’t have shops over there? Why the obsession with old, cobbled together packages of weird shit? Why not just get one, good thing?
Why am I being an asshole?
This made laugh a lot, but really a LOT. Thanks.
That means the most to me, thanks brah. I'm having that engraved on my tombstone.
I like picking up janky lightly used setups on 2nd hand sites in my country. I'm a bit of a truck & board hoarder and been trying to collect boards of the pros I liked growing up (Arto, Appleyard, Cardiel, Kirchart, AVE). Usually I pick up these lightly used or almost brand new boards for $40, keep the parts I like and flip the rest. I'm usually able to turn a $20-30 profit while keeping the stuff I like. The second hand market is big where I am (South-East Asia); brand new setup are pricey due to shipping and import taxes, a brand new setup costs $190 and up.
Was luck to pickup this setup for around $40, should be able to sell the trucks for $35, wheels for $20 and bearings for $10.
And no I don't think you're an asshole.
