i've been waiting for that Curb Killer 2 for a couple months. my local ordered it so hope they actually get it. (also hope they ordered a couple since mainland europe missed out quite bad on the last one)

can also spoil the other eggs artwork, the 9.25 symetrical will be similiar to the 9.75 egg that's already out.
and also saw the new Dead Dave will have wheel wells

i hold it in for a while but between now and the next 5 days they all gonna appear online already. that all i saw tho. they only show me the big boards.

Really looking forward to that symmetrical Razor Egg, hope that it's gonna be 9.1 like the original or is that gonna be the 9.25 symmetrical that's gonna drop?

When I see there’s any activity in this thread I know I’m about to see 1 1/2 pages about heroin eggs

Woodshop · « **Reply #4325 on:** January 26, 2022, 05:51:42 AM »

Heroin definitely seem to have a good market share of the big boards covered.

I think the only issue is if there are enough of them to go round, as many people seem to want them but cannot get any, which might be more so just in some areas.

Either way, it is cool to see so many out there.

69 bruh. Nice to see 169s on one of those Enjoi 9" pops. I figured it would be barely noticeable hot rodding but still cool to see one set up. Shoutout Jake the Snake

That 9" Enjoi looks nice. I enjoyed my 8.75 Enjoi, and I was just thinking about setting it back up last night. Also found myself clicking around their site last night doing some window shopping (9.12 football looking real nice.) They were never, ever my thing but I guess I like Enjoi now?

For real. If you told me 10 years ago that I'd be skating the shit out of dwindle boards, I woulda thought you were crazy. Here I am though. The 8.75 pop shape got me started (madness) and I've ran through like 3 of the pilz 9.1 egg shapes. I'm a big fan of that one. It's worth checking out if you're into eggs. Reminds me alot of the villani egg, but a hair steeper concave.

Put some bigger wheels and some rails on the Beamer so it's a bit more of a truck. Funnily enough it's now easier to ollie it.

I’d skate that. I’d skate that so hard. Are those diamond shapes routed, and if so, how do they affect the rails?

9.25" Couch... The 151s seemed to fit my last one well but this one looks a little magic carpet in real life. Tempted to put my 55s on it but it will be pretty squirrely with Aces...

Skating 169s on a couch shape right now. They’re a little noticeable sticking out in the back depending on what angle you’re looking down at but it’s not too bad.

Such a surprisingly good shape. Had to rein myself in from preemptively buying another one of the same deck.

MysticalTypeExperience · « **Reply #4338 on:** January 29, 2022, 12:01:48 PM »

I wanna buy one of these pretty bad as they're a Milwaukee based company (my home town). They come in 8.25-10".

Anyone know what woodshop the shovelhead shape is from? It says made in USA so I assume South Central or Pennswood.

Beer City has their own wood shop I believe. They’re boards are really sturdy. Definitely a solid pickup and they last forever I’ve heard. I have one but I never skated it.

Yeah it’s a couple of plys deep. Rails dip down a bit but also, as a Beamer, it dips up between the rails. Was going to run them along the channel but didn’t like it. Put the screws straight through the board on my first go lol

Took mine out for a quick flat/ curb session and I am now in the same boat... want another to stockpile... so fun. The 151s work so well with the short wheelbase. Made the transition from a 14.75 WB with Aces feel pretty seamless.

Was just looking for some couches after digging the loveseat. KCDC has a couple available for 25% off with code BOMBO25 (from the sale gear thread). Craig has a variety that you can get 10% off with code NINECLUB.

They have their own wood shop for sure…pretty sure it’s the same company Santa Cruz used back in the 90’s ( furniture company in WI.). Super sturdy wood/ mid concave. I had a wide mouth shape 8.5 a few years ago and it was great.

They didn't want to give any more info but Regulator is the Distro (which also includes the woodshop) for their boards.

I had a few pass through my hands a while back and they did seem like decent boards, although I didn't set any up so didn't get to skate any either.

* I just remembered - An old (really old and totally thrashed out) 1031 deck came in from someone a long time ago when they got a new board and I had a stand on it, so although totally flexed out and almost an inch off the kicks, that thing was still skateable, which is more than I could say for some other boards.

Plan9Customs · « **Reply #4346 on:** January 29, 2022, 05:53:02 PM »

I used to ride a lot of 1031 boards. So if Regulator did their(1031/Beer City) decks the woods comparable to BBS.

I know it’s probably sacrilegious to say this here but I didn’t get on too well with the 215s so I threw on a pair of 159s with some 60mm OJs and this is now one of the nicest cruisers I’ve ever skated!

Nah. 159 is a fun size and to me more practical. I actually prefer the bullet 185mm to the 215s. Enjoy your setup.
