| Everyone makes very good points. Don't forget that you only have one review (from what I've seen atleast) and have been open not even a month. While you're putting in hard work it takes alot more to get t where you want to be man. Just keep at it and don't focus so much on selling decks. Just keep making decks for the hell of it and get them as perfect as you can and keep letting people know you're still around. |

| So a small update I've been perfecting the shape of my 33.5s and also the cruisers will be up shortly on the website. They're looking really sick, I'll have a few photos up soon of those. Also I've been working on a batch of some new graphic decks, all woodprinted ATM, but real wears are in the works so be on the lookout for those. Also, the website has been revamped! Using some artwork generously givin to me by Bakko and his daughter, it's really standout now and looks totally awesome. Still no pictures, I've been back at school the past week and have only a handful of time to spend on deck making, which have been spent building a micro-studio for taking some beauty pics of my decks. Expect to see them by next Saturday on compiny.bigcartel.com Thanks guys! |

| Nice man, Looks really good! It's a pretty neat feeling seeing my own graphic on a fingerboard I didn't make myself.
Have to say I agree with BrorS though, as the holes do look a little off.
Your rail is just about done BTW...

| Compiny pool shape review by Chima_ via Reddit Setup: Compiny pool/cruiser deck, 4corner tape, Tech Deck longboard trucks, 4corner bearing wheels. (soon to be with bollie wheels and no logo bushings) First Impressions: The board came packaged nicely and arrived very fast Shape: The board is really wide (34mm) but it still feels comfortable. The square tail is nice and has lots of pop. The nose is smaller than the tail and it is nicely rounded (but less rounded than a normal board). Because of this shape you can still do all of your street tricks with the board the right way round, and nollie is also possible but nollie flip tricks are harder because of the larger and steeper tail, but still possible. The concave is mellow with a medium/low kick nose and a high kick tail. The concave is noticeable but not over the top, I like it. Holes: Some people have had problems with the holes before, but I think that these problems have been mostly fixed. It did seem like one hole was slightly out but I found them to be fine when putting my trucks on. They were also nicely countersunk. Bottom Ply: The graphic that I chose was one of a set of compiny graphics, it's of an old fashioned camera in front of a wave pattern/design. I believe that he does do custom graphics on request too. The bottom ply is very smooth, but not overly shiny which I like too. Great for boardslides! Final Thoughts: This board is a very nice board, and for the price ($15 canadian) it is really great value. The shipping was reasonable and fast, especially since it was international. The customer service was brilliant (he went and got me some Tech Deck trucks (I did pay for that!)) and I would recommend Compiny for this alone. I would recommend you go buy a Compiny deck, they are great quality and at a great price and you would be supporting a new company ran by a great guy. [6] http://www.compiny.bigcartel.com |
