The Weca is a bit mellower but it's also shorter than the Pure so that makes out for the mellowness a little I think. What I mean is that the Pure is more like long and mellow kicks while the Weca is kinda short and has mellow kicks. Wecas are mellow though.

Okay, thanks for the info

Can you guys give me some advice which deck to get based on my preferences: Medium-Low Kicks, Mellow concave, under 100mm, defined shape and decently thin. Now the options for decks im considering are a Weca, Unique, Beastpants or a Bawsewood. Let me know thanks

I would suggest a Weca. They are mellow, but very defined.
Uniques are great as well, but the kicks are a little higher (just a bit).
Beastpants of course are spectacular, but the shape isn't as defined. It's more mellow and subtle.
I hope that helped

alright thanks a lot henry! Will pick up a deck from the new stock

beastpants are actually very defined for their shape. they are mellow but very easy to use heres a picture of two new molds

the colored deck came out better(defined shape wise). they actually have dips and they have a shape similar to a berlinwood but a lot mellower...and way better

Don't get me wrong, Beastpants are absolutely amazing.
I just think that you're rolling the dice with getting a defined one or not. They might come defined, or maybe not.
You don't run that risk when you buy a Weca

Henry do you know anything about pure decks? From kerry's review they sound absolutely amazing...

Haha, I was actually going to suggest a Pure deck. They are pretty similar to Wecas, but they are very long. Like 101-102, so I decided not to mention it.
Kick ass decks for sure though
Temple is also gonna be great Ryan makes a stock of 98mm decks. But I don't wanna flood your mind with a bunch of new decks, so I'd say go with Weca.
But these are all choices to consider

its actually not rolling the dice with getting it defined or not. my custom (maple and not as defined) deck only isnt as defined as the other because chris had to make it differently than he makes all his other decks. mine was specially short and wide and he had to change the decks dimensions to make it work right

I would suggest a Pure, they really are amazing. But they are 99mm, Henry.

So I'm stuck on trucks for my first pro fingerboard. I don't know whether to cheap out with some Chinas, or go all-out with some BRT's. For one thing, I like the price of the China's, but personally hate slop in the pivot and manufacturing from my old tech deck trucks. I know I can always add pivot cups, but I also want the feel of real skateboard trucks, so that's why I'm looking at the BRT's and ytrucks, but they're also expensive as a first-time buy. What would be my best route of purchase???

Also as far as wheels go, what are some semi-grippy ones I can use on any type of trucks that feel nice and smooth?

Thanks guys!

Rusewood trucks and wheels

How long and wide are Berlinwood Classics?

Go with china trucks for sure, you're not going to notice any difference in quality with BRT's. If you need 32 mm trucks, go with some TD longboard trucks, tune them with witchcrafts and you're just as good as some brts. For wheels, it kind of depends on what your budget is, but china wheels are really hit and miss for me. So if you can afford it, go ahead and buy some FF wheels new or off here and you'll be set.

As Sam said, some 32mm TDLB trucks with some witchcraft tuning is the way to go. As for wheels, I highly recommened Grand wheels, they have amazing quality wheels with a nice price tag.

LOL George.But James don't use gunners calculator screw method it only really works weel on y trucks.You could use some super glue in the threaded holes and keep the screws inside the holes overnight or so so that it makes a new thread

Or JB weld because it dried like hardened rubber and ends up like a locknut material
