| Anyone know any big brands that I could get at my local shop that have mellower concave? So far I have really liked Creature and Real decks, if that hints at the shape I like but im pretty sure I like mellow decks |

| Mini Logo, Baker, Plan B and Habitat.
Those are the boards I've tried with the lowest concave. |

| I had a toy machine and the concave was very shallow.
I vouch for element, they have tons of shapes.

| My Toy machine had mellow concave. But my friends Real didn't really have mellow concave.
Zero, try Zero. |

| I had a Birdhouse that was super mellow. I would check into those. Stay away from Flip, they usually have pretty big concave. I also have a Zero. If I remember correctly, it has a lot of concave. |

| I find that there isnt that much difference in skateboard shapes, compared to fingerboards, its more about getting the right width for your preference.
Best thing to do is just ask if you can stand on the deck, or just pick it up and look at the concave in the shop. |
