Nice! I have the 8.3” twin tail currently but it’s a bit small for me. If that 8.5” twin tail finds its way to Europe I’ll definitely get one!

[backinaction]

Well shit.... two weeks after I picked up the non slick 8.3 twin there is a slick one

I'm riding a Real Low Pro II it's a 8.43" I like the shape and concave, it has more concave than what I usually ride but it's good ... the only problem is a huge wheelbase it's a 14.75" and it's annoying I considered redrilling, but I'm too worried I'd ruin the deck.

I’m very glad DLX makes boards with longer wheelbases. They have shorter ones too. Relatively few companies have decks with wheelbases longer than 14.5” and then you mostly have to go over 8.5” in width. DLX does have shorter wheelbases too, for example the Antihero 8.5” navy eagle at 14.25”.

Generator standard wb is 14 3/8 which is a bit long....PS is 14-14.25 usually.  You throw on a set of thunders on a generator board and if the nose or tail also happens to be .25 longer you notice it for sure.

Sick about the twins....ill keep my eye out...wish they had an 8.25...actually 8.125 but I'm trying to be reasonable about this.....

They have a Wair Twin Tail 8.25 x 31.8 with a 14.33 in wheelbase - just not in the current catalog. There was one available last spring.   

They have released twin tail 8.0, 8.25, 8.3 and 8.5.    This fall they had all but the 8.25 available.

8.38" too with those twin tile graphics a year or so back. 14.5" wheelbase on that one I think. Never saw it anywhere in Europe and am afraid the same will happen with this peachy 8.5".

I had the tile one, it was sick....8.25

8.3 is just a random size....

Thanks. That's the 8.3" one though. I've got one of the earlier 8.3" decks set up now and it feels a tad small for me so I'd really like to have the 8.5".

[Brad Breath]

I’m a huge fan of the 8.5 full but they don’t seem to release as many of that shape. 

None in any of the newer drops.

[SpankerChief]

Hey Slap Pals,

We're working to some new Deluxe deck shapes. Any shapes you like now that could use a tweak to make it perfect?

If anyone has any suggestions, ideas or input we'd love to hear them!

So I really like the Heavyweight shapes however a full nose and tail would be great...

I'm loving the 8.3 Ishod twin tail, it's Just Peachy.

I'm now at 3 real fulls, two se and i think 8.25 full se it's where it's at, but the concave is too much, I asked skatedeluxe if they have the concave IV, they said from I to III. So I'm considering buying 8.25 mellow low pro, is the difference between this shape and a full so evident?

[Sedition]

The SE fulls are pretty dope.

Personally I'd buy real stuff because they often have steeper concaves.....if I want something mellow I'd skate any other generator board there are tons out there.

I would get the Grant or the Ishod.  Quick search revealed nothing though.

The 8.25" Full SE is damn near perfect (the short WB is it's weak point for me riding anything other than Thunders).

If you look around you MIGHT be able to find the lowpro II SE, super limited runs and it was a while back.

The shape difference is very noticable, especially going back to a regular non-full real...especially on an 8.25, they are decidedly more pointy. I'm riding a non-se 8.3 Twin tail and it's an acceptable level of 'full' but not near the 8.3x full.

Still waiting for DLX to make the the 8.25x32x14.383 in a full...probably never happen tho.

I want a 8.53 with a 14.55 wb, slick nose, emobossed tail, money bumps, twin hammerhead noses, hanging klansman graphic drawn by Gonz and the tree must be screenprinted but the klansman can be heat transfer.

Reed, can you help out?

For sure.

Each will come with an original and personalized Gonz painting, and a lifetime supply of Tenga's.

Ha ha watch it happen.

I begged DLX for a Lee Ralph Krooked Gest Model for a long time over on their Message board and lo and behold...

...one day it happened.

I'm sure it happened b/c Lee Ralph deserved it but I like to think my internet begging had a little role to play.

Oh and Low Pro II it while you're at it

Seriously tho, the other 8.25" in a full would be all I would ride.
