Diamondkey STOCK ON! I Worked real hard on all this stuff guys!

Diamondkey right now, is in the works of experimentation. I am seeing what I am capable of doing and basically "feeling" a ramp company out. We are now officially established. But I am thinking the kinked rooftop and manual pads will be a one time thing so these will be very limited edition. I'm not sure if I will do them or not. Don't get your hopes up, hahah. I am trying to nudge Diamondkey more towards marble/ granite obstacles along with some delicate mini brick work, rails and unique obstacles like the benches!

I want Diamondkey to be a continuous line of new and exciting products, some to stay for a long time, some to go, each piece is handcrafted by me.

When doing this company I thought other companies prices were bs and I really wanted bring shipping costs down. Turns out, they are actually very accurate, especially FF. And since I am renting out part of a shop I also am inclined to pay the heating and electricity bill of the parts I am using and the hours I use the machines. So I really couldn't down the price of shipping or anything yet. :/

Yep! Around america that is basically the set price but to Europe and U.K. The international price for shipping is about 2 dollars extra but I'm just taking the rape on that.

Nice rails I have seen today excellent works on it ray hopes it sells out good.

Ray, this all looks absolutely and utterly shit.











Kidding, looks fucking awesome, I really like the marble bench

I agree! The bench is pretty <3

Bump.

I'm diggin the Wooden Bench and the Marble one

Which wooden bench? The one with the back or the flat one?

The park bench is super cool. Awesome work man!
Yes, shipping is a beast isn't it! The basic rate for a small international package just went up 43%. I haven't shipped out ramps as of late, but I am betting that is going to be super expensive. I have been focusing on making my obstacles the 'right' shipping sizes so I can use the flat rate boxes.. but what a pain!

good luck on all this!
Jim

Thanks Jim! Yea it's kind of a pain but I lowered them to as little as I could. They're still not even paying the full shipping price. It's alright tho!

this all looks fucking godly.. EXCEPT the rails. Really they look such carbon copies of airflo. Like, I know they didn't invent the round rail, but they've really grown their market recently with painted legs. Either paint the whole thing, or what I think would be more interesting would be a painted logo on the feet, in different colours (or maybe just paint the feet and not the legs). But right now, I really don't like the vibe you've got with those. The red, orange, purple, and blue and some of airflo's signature colours, so if you're going to use them, don't do it in this way - or if you do expect negativity to follow, some of the airflo supporters get pretty intense, haha..

Otherwise, as I say everything looks SOOOOO good. Really good work, really loving all of it, and the prices are great too. Just I really think you need to work on the rails before you shoot yourself in the foot - the fingerboarding scene as I've seen it is very unforgiving, if you do something like this you could create a constant blob of negativity that'd harm your companies rep in the long run, which you really don't want - especially given how seriously impressive the rest of the product lineup looks in every sense, from craftsmanship to creativity.

Keep up the good stuff though

im having the marble thing.

What Kerry said.

The rails look very similar to Airflo rails with the coloured legs. I know Airflo didn't invent or own the idea but the similarity of them is too great and I think you will get a lot of hate for that (remember the Yellowood clones?). The coloured legs on the rails seem a little odd and if you had other obstacles in the same colours, it might pass. Otherwise, I have a suggestion: to have raw legs with a Diamondkey logo on the leg, much like the natural look of the other obstacles. Maybe you could paint graphics or patterns on the legs instead of solid colours.

Although I admit these obstacles look really great, I currently wont be purchasing any.

Yep! All diamondkey right now is just a feeler. I have the tools and supplies to make basically anything I want right now. The motivation to follow.

I am testing what I can do as far as boxed ramps, marble obstacles, wood obstacles, and definitely rails. This is my first stock off all these things. As the time passes some models will be discontinued and will be very limited edition and some models will be here to stay.

I want to bring on a continuously new feeling vibe to the fingerboarding scene only by bringing out new and fresh products very consistently.

The rails as of right now are just prototype. A couple of them have already sold which is nice.

I Do plan on doing something different on them to make them stand out from all the rest. Engraving would be sick but it is extremely expensive. I do want to put out that natural look though!

wow the ramps look amazing i realy wanna sesh the wooden bench.

Read the first page, boom, Kerry Said exactly what I was gonna say.
But still, looking good!

this looks dope, i'm not going to waste your time with a paragraph because i know you are still just feeling this out

i'm excited to see what happens for this company
