your tipsy-self was correct on this one, looking to get one soon too. This way I can get a 9" deck, egg shaped and twin tail. Perfect combo it seems.
The '80s were the worst period. You had these horrible pop bands growing their hair and calling themselves metal.

So stoked they re-released this deck since I missed it the first time around. Bonus points for the red top, I always put a note in asking for red or blue (anything but pink) but a lot of the time companies/shops just ignore it.

8.25" x 31.63" 14"wb PGI wood. Love this shape, this one has a slightly steeper tail than my last one but it might flatten out a bit more over time and either way it's a nice flat mold that's reminiscent of the boards I grew up on. Really enjoyed my last couple Blood Wiz decks so I have high hopes for this one.

polar 8.5. Interested to see how the wheel wells feel. I weigh about 145-150lbs, am riding 53mm PFC, Real wooden risers, and my wheel bite is digging so hard it's almost making wheel wells on standard decks ha ha ha never gonna tighten my trucks  :o


scumco ps stix8.5 (via SLAP pal) I don't know if/when I'm gonna set this up but it feels real nice as is. almost seems like the nose and tail are the same width, and I like that, a lot.

You bastard. I bought that Shin deck only to be told the next morning they didn’t have any left. I’m like 190-200 so my fat ass has been looking into wheel wells. I wound up having to pick another deck and got the Grund Notre Dame.
that would be crazy if your skin was made of hammers.

This Creature snap back looked cool. I like pillbox hats. My old man used to wear the classic baseball hats like that. Also got some Indy 149 Hollows to try. Gonna put them on my 8.25 and 8.5 and see which feels better.

@off nice. I was looking at footprint insoles online last night and didn't pull the trigger because the sizing and specs are kind of vague but also except for there ODB's their aesthetics are such fucking garbage. I don't know if theres an official  insoles thread on Slap but please post about how those ODBs skate. I'm recovering from surgery and need to get some high quality thick insoles.

Drove 45 mins one way to the local shop (my first time going there) 2 weeks ago for a set of those Darkroom wheels.
Got there and the sign on the door said “be back soon”. Killed a few minutes, nobody showed, and drove home, which took an hour. No purchase made.
Hopped on line yesterday and got them for $10 cheaper.
It’s not worth damn near 2 hours of my limited time to go back, ever.
Hope the wheels are rad.

Really curious to know if you have any idea where the board was made, which woodshop as it is a bit of a mystery and although I haven't seen any with my own eyes, I have it listed as BBS up to 2019 and Watson woodshop since then.

Not seeing anything from the pics at all to identify it, did it have a "W" with American flag or Made in USA sticker or anything?

Not a worry if it is a dead end, or you don't know - they are usually fun big boards to ride though!

Gone since 1988.  I talk too much about skateboards.  Sorry.

If you're referring to the scram deck I'm pretty sure they're prime wood. Or at least that's what the popsicles were last time I looked at one which was a few months back.

I remember someone saying they were bbs at one point in the past but I don't recall anything about Watson unless they did like a small run of some one - off crazy old school shape, which is something Watson somewhat specializes in (they make some of the Sam Hitz limited editions, some of the special Toy machine decks like the Halloween boards, and I think burger uses them for their old school shape)

FA Ave 8.25

Ruckus 5.5 (on sale for $20). Listed as lows which is why i bought them but they look more like a mid. I'll have to measure when I get a chance.

Two sets of wheels that were on clearance from skate warehouse. The day after I placed the order they started a sale that took a further 20% off all clearance items. Was pretty annoyed about that.

Satori conical 52mm 101a

 and

Bones STF 103A herpe boy wheels. Never skated the stf 103a and I've been curious about the V2 shape for a while, it's kind of the bones equivalent to tablets. They were on sale for $23 (assuming because Yonnie got canceled) and I needed to get to the free shipping threshold so I figured I'd give them a shot.

I bought a few things right before the MDW sale and feel kinda burned. I should’ve gotten some bones to try over the weekend but didn’t and feel doubly dumb for that. Let us know how they are though.

The Scram? I’m 90+% sure it’s BBS. Same wood that they’ve had since Nolan started selling out of shops. There were 2 exceptions though, the first and second Assault X Scram decks were Watson made.
I hoarded a bunch of the 9” shovels after Scram stopped making them. Then I found out that 35th Ave had the same deck as a shop board and I know 100% those are BBS made. Same wood, same stain quality, same clear. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck…
If it was about the polarizer, I have no idea where Neil has those done.

Yes sorry should have been clearer, but the Scram board.

Thanks for both replies.

It is a funny one as I had seen two Scram boards that people ordered from US shops, both different but both not BBS in feel, concave, etc so I was interested to know as a local AU distributor just brought some in so I was very curious, as they have 9 and 9.75 boards in their current stock - mainly for others I know who are after boards of those dimensions.

Gone since 1988.  I talk too much about skateboards.  Sorry.

Deck Specs:
Width: 8.27"
Length: 31.83"
Wheelbase: 14.22"
Nose: 6.8"
Tail: 6.6"

This is right up my weird dimensions alley...not quite an 8.25 and not quite and 8.3...Length and WB = not too long, not too short...tail around 6.5 Nose under 7" and on NHS wood.

Please be goldilocks, Please be goldilocks, Please be goldilocks, Please be goldilocks, Please be goldilocks....
How’d you like it? I’m looking at Santa Cruz stuff myself. I have a BBS 8.5 that’s so mellow. Kind of eager to try something by NHS/DSM and I love the dimensions on this.
