Also, sometimes the picture will make the decks look shaped uneven especially the decks on the sides.
Don't worry mate about what Mikkel says, he tries to put down every new fingerboard company out there. He doesn't put in any positive feedback, it always has to be negative when it comes to him. Then again, he bans people for just speaking the truth and their honest opinion about him, because he obviously cannot face the truth
~ On topic, these decks look ace. I'd say let them sit in the dye a bit more, so they get more color and they would look more vibrant. You could mix some colors as well, to do a "Tie dye" effect, which is rad. And I love the shape of these as well! I don't know you seem to be pretty negative yourself...like to the point you need to edit your posts cause you overreact way to much. What mikkel said in this thread is called feedback not being negative. Being negative would be saying his decks suck or somethin else rude like that. Edit: dude you pretty much suggested what mikkel did? You clearly just wanted to take a dig at him. You're the negative one imo.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, im not like mad at anyone or anything, what Ryan has told me has given me ideas for improvement, and yet again, like i said i just started selling decks, making them..... well ive made plenty decks in the past. |

No! Sorry man I was talking to Blackfingers. Don't mean to spam your thread. I would have to agree that you should look into working on dying your veneer slightly better. I would suggest looking at food dyes as that's always done the trick for me. Just add a little bit of water to the food dye and you'll be good to go after a couple days of letting the veneer soak. |

Lol. Not every brand will work or have the same method for using it but it will work well once you find the right one. your dye is a lot better then when I started that's for sure. You could see the grain of the maple when I first started so at least you don't have that problem! |

| Just to chime in a little bit. As an owner of a Spot Deck, id say i'm very happy with my board. I came in looking for a deck with a shape that i don't have / is different. As far as the dye, i think its perfect. Its light yet shows a nice deep reflection, is spot on for the described color. I understand some folks don't like to see the wood grain? Yet i find that it adds another layer of awesomeness with color and pattern. But to each there own. Be sure the check out the review for those who want a little more pictures. Cant wait for those real wears!! Great stuff Filip. |

I have never banned anyone for speaking the truth, and i don't ban anyone without clearing with other staff. And i have never banned anyone for saying there opinion about me, as i don't really care about your opinion. If you don't like how the forum works, then you can leave As Ryan pointed out, i didn't say anything negative about the decks. The kid is wondering why he has only sold one deck, so i tell him what i would work at to make the decks more attractive. What exactly is your problem with that? |

| Hello guys after Spot Decks looking like a company that died after a few weeks, I have finally come up with something, and it is quite great in my opinion! A completely new shape and some simple split plies that look and feel fantastic! If you follow me on instagram (instagram.com/filip_bronola) I have one of these new shape decks setup with y's and flatfacexwinkler collabs, and it is simply awesome! So with my approval i have put the decks up for sale for everyone to see. You can find pictures and more information on my website; however, here is a quick overview of the new shape: the kicks and concave are steeper and deeper, the kicks are wider, nose and tail are more distinguishable, much much better quality deck rounding, stronger lacquer and dye, and more equalized dips. Over all this shape is much more fun than the old flat type shape and has much more pop! To find out more on this EPIC new shape, and some pictures, check out the site @ spotdecks.bigcartel.com THANK YOU! |

| The decks look pretty nice, but something I noticed on the stock description-
"Due to different prices of shipping, the higher quality of the decks, and the fact that I now make split plies, these decks are now going to cost more than the original $10."
Shipping is covered separately during checkout- surely it shouldn't contribute to the increase in price? |

| Yep it does, shipping to different parts of the U.S. for example California is more expensive the New York because I live in South Carolina. |

Not what Danny was saying.... Although we all realize that shipping costs vary depending on your location, this is added after the $17 deck purchase. Shipping will change the final cost of everything. However these shipping cost do not affect the production costs of the deck... |

| Being under 25 bucks with or without shipping these decks looks to be well worth anyones support to give them a try no matter what the item description on the website displays to be honest. Maybe rewrite some of it and make it short and sweet would be a good idea Filip.. |

| I think Danny meant that the shipping prices are determined by Big Cartel by the end of a purchase and aren't needed to be factored in to the product's cost.
Example:
The shipping on a $10 deck to NY would be the same for shipping on a $17 deck to NY.
Correct me if I'm wrong, though. |
