| Decks look amazing all always. Nice to see a company that isn't trying their hardest to get stocks out. Instead taking their time making an incredible product. |

| The last midskool 8ply looks really nice..the black and white wood is amazing!! The tony cruisers color schemes look amazing also!! also just noticed that custom 9ply with the red top has an incredible modernish look to it..like a classy 70's man cave or something.. the top says oldskool and the bottom has a deep artsy look..dosent even remind me of a skateboard haha its a work of art! |

It's more than likely reconstructed man-made veneer. Similar to the woods Blosom use. |

| Wow, thanks for all this positive feedback!
Sorry for the huge delay with my restock - i am literally sitting on a pile of midschool shapes ready to go online, but I have too much going on around me those last weeks.
The new generation of decks are all pressed with 15-17 tons of pressure, left in the press for at least 36h and are using an improved mold for a more defined concave.
Oh and that white veneer is actually birchwood. |

| Honestly, these boards make me sad. Idk why. They are perfect in every way, shape, and form. I think I'm just jealous? Maybe I'm sad because not enough people have them so I can never try one out haha. It also may be because not enough people know about these. Point is, these decks are so good, they make me sad. Keep up the amazing work! |

| So are you using regular thickness veneer and just pressing it at crazy amounts of pressure to make them so thin and 7 ply? Really cool nonetheless. Decks look great. |

Decks look great. I can't say for sure but I'm pretty sure that's not what he' doing since compressing it a ton would only squeeze out the glue and dehydrate the veneer. |

| It says in the website that he presses it at 17 tons... Which should press out the glue.. Maybe he lets the glue set before turning up the mold. Either way he's not pressing it at 17 tons for nothing considering I press decks at around 4 tons and even that is too much I think sometimes. |

I honestly did not know that haha. I still don't think it would work but I have never tried it so I can't say. |
