I could not say they're bad decks, but I got really disappointed with mine...shape looks cool in picks but then is not that great, and also they're only 30.5 so if you like 32mm decks it is too skinny I guess... Hmm.. but mike schneider uses g13 ? .. I thought they are good.... I'm just looking for another deck... but don't know what deck to buy .. yes he uses them...so? it does not mean that they're that good, as I said they're not bad decks...mike makes them, he probably likes them a lot but that was just my opinion and my thoughts about the deck, which I share with some other friends of mine. |

Why isnt it possible to use nollie wheels or somtin. It's because BRTs push the bearings because of its design and BRR ed wheels have ways to prevent bearing slippage due to BRTs pushing the bearings. Non-BRR ed wheels experience bearing slippage when used on BRTs. |

First they go out in the woods and find a nice stick that they sharpen and use as a spear. Then they use the spear to hunt down 2½ deer and 1 squirrel. They cut the prey open and take out the ribs. The ribs are the base material for the trucks. Deer ribs for the hanger and baseplate, squirrel ribs for axles, kingpins and nuts. The ribs are shaped with a rusty spoon and then to make them harden really good they expose them to sunlight in 2.45 seconds. No more, no less. It's very important that you are exact on the time, cause otherwise your trucks will break. After the sunlight exposiour you have to coat them with a varnish. I am pretty sure that both Blackriver and Ytrucks make their varnish themselves. The usual method is mixing acetone and your own urine. You use the same method to shape all the parts and then put them together. If you want locknuts instead of regular nuts you simply add some of the squirrels intestine to the inside of the nuts. I hope this helps. |

I think I saw some guys that were going to bend like a 0,5 cm thick piece of wood. They ironed it first (one of these thing you have on clothes to make them smooth) so they got kinda hot and wet I think (they maybe used a liiitle bit of water) I think they clamped the piece of wood to a round thing so it would get that curve. Left it there one day ore more. |

| the only problem with bending wood by getting it wet, is the probability of it warping while it's drying |
