Does anyone know what the WB and length is of that 8.4 Real deck with the cop car and instructions on how to smash it was?

Think it was in last year’s spring or summer lineup.

I don't know the board you're talking about but every Real 8.4 I just looked at has a 14.25 wb. I had a Cardiel Antihero last year that was the same dims and I'm gonna hazard a guess is the same shape. I really like that shape. That set up was stolen out of my car before I really even got a chance to ride it so I look wistfully at the AH 8.4s all the time. I've got other stuff to skate before I buy anything else but I'll likely get another one. Good to know that DLX has that shape for their other brands. Thanks for making me look that up.

Nice!

I like it a lot too. Is that considered an SE (short wheelbase) for Real?

Jalopi has some short wheelbases to. We’ve got an 8.28 with a 14.1 WB at the shop right now. Deck is under 32” if I’m not mistaken too.

Recently been skating some Ishod twin tail shape. Shit is 8.5 wide and like 32.62 long with a long wheelbase. Im pretty tall so that long ass board feels so god damn good. Every Ishod board I skate with this shape makes me feel like im wreckin shit 24/7. I stepped my friends board the other day and it felt like a god damn mini.

Those 8.28s are great, I rode a few when AH did the Fanta Pfanner series waaaay back.

Currently riding my second #numbers edition at a similar size: 8.28” x 31.775” deck says 14.12 WB, website says 14.25 (it's actually 14.12); second board doesn't feel as cripsy as the first one tho, ollies sounds pretty dead.

Shape is really nice, not pointy, not round and not square, just sort of regular popscicle with a slight taper. Steep and Deep tho!

I would like to see more shaped boards along with a more blunt boards ranging from 8-8.5 and as for shapes plzzzzz bring back the “try concrete” board

Serious Tea Drinker · « **Reply #605 on:** May 01, 2019, 10:19:32 PM »

Loving the shaped eagle 'Brown Bomber.' Short wheelbase 14.25" and wide in the guts at 8.8 but nice taper meaning it rides more like an 8.5" Nice long tail and nose that's not super long.

SE are the short editions of the Full shapes. All SEs have quite a bit shorter wheelbases.

Fuck! I don’t like how short my board feels. I was wondering why it felt kinda weird. I like anything from 8-8.25. I like a standard wheel base. This short board is, well short.

Has anybody tried the 8.12 x 31.25 shape? I want a smaller wheelbase but i don't know if it is too much.

I love short, and the wider the board, the shorter it gets is ideal for me. Chode ideals. Don’t ride dlx as much I’d like because most are too long/wb too long. Length is an underrated part of the board-user experience and for sure personal. I haven’t figured out the sacred math

The AH Jalopi shape is awesome. Love the shorter WB.

There's a recent walker tail feathers, busenitz one with stars on it, AH BA devolution. Krooked hasn't made an 8.12 sub 32 in a few years.

We don't have any 8.12s with the short 31.25 WB in the line right now.

I could ask production to put it back in the line if there is a big enough demand... How many people on here would ride it?

I'd give it a whirl. I'd personally prefer more shapes as similar to the Jalopi as possible. That board felt amazing.
Is there anything out there similar ala 8.25 with a 14.1 or so WB?

Many thanks!

Please do, my favorite shape in a long time! Love how short it is with a short wheelbase

Idk · « **Reply #628 on:** June 25, 2019, 07:50:22 AM »

Lenny please! Just more 14” wheelbases please! 🥺 8.0 8.125 and 8.25 length isn’t as important but 14 inch wheelbase go. Especially on a deluxe board.

Murge · « **Reply #629 on:** June 25, 2019, 08:34:16 AM »

I had the jalopi Archimedes board 8.4 with a 14.125 wheel base I think. Best board I’ve ever had
