All I am trying to say is that it would have been different if the deck came straight to you and wasn't used by someone else and plus I am sure the deck Melvin had isn't as good as the new batches Jarred has been making this year. He has been making the decks better and the pop on my Little G and Emerald is way better than the Mason I got 3 months ago. Maybe f you like the https://www.facebook.com/pages/Northwoods/173396459337205 page you could win a deck and realise that your wrong about the decks. I amn't saying your wrong about that perticular deck though.

I laughed my ass off at the china no mellow mold happy
Jarred was nice enough to send me some of the old wheels and the bearings all fell out after 30 minutes.

My iPod has auto correction on and when I tried spelling jarred it spelled jarhead lololololololol

Jarred has made a really unique shape, and its not even "almost exactly" the same as a china deck. And knowing it was in Melvins possession, who knows what he did to the deck... lol

wait so let me get this straight. you ONLY dont like the shape now? i thought before you said:

Performance on this deck was horrrrible

now, it seems pretty unjustifiable to call a deck "horrible" because it wasnt your preferance.

and:

Noel wrote:


also the pop was abit meh and it was flexible

to be honest this deck looks like a china brand no lie


so then if a china made deck was YOUR shape, youd be okay with it?

Guys, how about lets not talk shit unless you own the deck yourself, and have had it for a reasonable amount of time. im not trying to be the one to disagree with everyone, but Its really unfair to bag on a company just because of what a few others have said.

Im not trying to give my own opinion on the deck, as i have yet to try it, im simply saying its pretty mean and unfair to bag on a company thats done nothing but support Fingerboarding.

Wait so this review is based off of word of mouth not personal experience?

he claims to have used the board, but it wasnt new and he doesnt even own the deck. he got it from "Melvin" somehow. thats what i understand anyways. I just recieved their Hex Bolt trucks today, and ill be getting the deck this Friday. ill do an unboxing followed by a review then. with pictures/ videos.
