Anyone buy the grimple true full

love how dumb the gimmick of an uncut board is and the fact that it's selling out everywhere instantly

Were they skating it like a normal board, or set up like a cruiser or something else?

Just curious, not a worry either way.


I could see that thing being tail block central - just have to tail block everything in sight - with such a wide squared off end.

Skating it normal. The kid that had it can skate anything. I’ll see if he’s got anything with it in IG and post it if so.

We won’t be stocking blast anymore probably. Had so many issues with shipping boards and gear over seas. Duty fees, returned to sender 3 times etc. maybe another run of roller surfer decks.

That’s fair, I remember snagging one of the craig boards from 35th when you got the 1st drop

I hope one day blast gets it together to somehow start bringing product to the US on their own

Thanks for doing it in the first place

sadly since brexit getting them in mainland europe is quite shit too. i bought 2 decks last weekend. and the shipping and import fees alone cost me 90 euro.
but i do really love their decks..
would be great if they figure internatinal distribution out better. but dont see it happen anytime soon.

Slave Warpig 9.5 . Added wheel wells and redrilled using an old Indy baseplate to shorten the wheelbase.
Ace 55 with inverted kingpin on the rear, stock bushings, 1/8” risers
Shortys hardware sucks- the bolt heads are narrow and one of them is now sucked down a few plys and lodged in the wood wtf
OJ 54mm 99a / Spitfire 56mm 97a full cone.
Bones rail cut down to not wheel bite and moved around so there’s 30+ extra holes.

This board literally looks like it went through a war.
Love the setup though.

The situation really is unfortunate. Brexit doesn’t affect getting stuff from the UK to the US but to EU it’s just fucking shit. I’d have gotten that shaped Lovenskate collab deck with the tea bags and a T-shirt, but I really don’t feel like paying almost double price due to shipping & taxes.

I also hope they’re able to figure out distribution internationally as I think they’ve got a rad thing going on and would love to see them survive and flourish.

while cool-guying is a real phenomenon, studies show that 83% of all cool-guying incidents can be attributed to the cool-guyee being an awkward weirdo

I am also thinking the corners would wear down a lot more than the middle, so that would work well.

Some other square tails would often chip in the corners, so after the first owner was done with them or was over trying to clean up the corners, I had machined them down to more rounded kicks and they worked well as cruisers, but would also work as normal wide boards too.

Scroll down on the fist page.
Might not be the right decks up yet. The one listed Big Boy is def not the Big Boy shape.

I think it used to be chicobrenes.com but is now chicostix.com

I have seen increasing issues with some websites / shops from here in AU where they time out or just don't load.


This is a screen shot of the new boards, yet to be released, but as there are very limited numbers, so might sell out quickly.
