I'm not sure why but they skipped them this season or something....they are kinda hard to find right now....
How many different 8.125 shapes does DLX have right now? I want to skate DLX boards more but I can't get on with the 14.38 wb. It's kinda weird to me that DLX manufactures trucks that extend a setup's wheelbase and also have mostly long wheelbase decks out.

The only thing that may bug some people is that the nose is a little short, so it feels more like a "twin-tail" deck. The nose definitely measures under 7" (maybe around 6.75"?)Anyways, I dig short boards and the 14" wheelbase feels a lot more responsive than the standard DLX 14.38 wb. I really wish DLX would put out a few 8.25's or 8.38's with a 14" wb...

How come DLX don't make an 8x32 shape like the Pass~Port or Polar? It's the wood shop right?I'm just not a fan of the 8.06

I'd love shorter wheelbase like 14.25 on an 8.5-8.75 deck
Perfect dlx shape would be: 8.25 full, mellow kicks, mellow rails, mellow concave, 14.25 wb, 32 length, symmetrical with the length of the nose/tail between 7 and 6.75...hahah please make it happen 8.25 mellow low Pro full se twin shape (sorta name)
DLX boards seem a hair wider than at least what the axles are measured at.....an 8.125 looks perfect for an 8.25 truck...
