| g3s are nice, but, keep in mind they're td width. If you want a wider deck, you're out of luck, as with all closeups. Also, if you don't like concave, don't buy them, they're at least bw09 amount of concave, if not more.. Still, graphics are rad, pop is good, comes with its own rip stuff, trucks are single axle, wheels spin well for non bearing wheels as they're metal core, and, yea.. worth the money for deffs, just, a shame they're not wide, is all : o |

| Don't buy a closeup if you have a bit more money get the nocomply push completes there an amazing deal seriously if not I can sell you a beast or dynamite deck I think miles has a really good deal there though |

| seriously. dont buy a closeup, the shape is horrible, they have such a horrible feel to them just because it has a graphic and is complete it dosnt make it good the bushings dont even fit, theyre too skinny for the amount of concave they have. seriously, buy a cheap deck like a redemption, creekwood, dynamite, beast, panic, owood theyre all great decks and theyre alot cheaper |

And he uses his own wheels a lot.. Everything he sells isn't gonna be his preference, but he wouldn't sell things he thought to be bad quality.. On topic.. What jack said about push completes is a brilliant idea. 30 quid. Closeups are like 20.. for the extra money you get bearing wheels, nice trucks, AMAZING deck, tool, tape + a really rad carry case. Seriously, I think thats the best deal in the FB world. |
