| Hi Guys this is NOT my Post its kerrys form unite and just thought it should be shared on here http://www.unitefingerboarding.com/So, I'm sure you've all heard of cuatro, well known throughout the scene for ridiculously amazing lacquer beyond compare. Like, you'd look at it from across the room and it'd be like looking in a mirror. Such beautiful decks. And now they've stepped up their game with a shape thats even better than the previous 'spicy' mold. See what I said about the lacquer? Look at those decks, they look like looking into a crystal clear pool of water. Amazing. These decks are mad genius, which have two (2nd and 4th I believe) plies of carbon fiber in them. Which, as you'll know if you've ever skated a carbon fiber skateboard deck (old element fiber lights anyone? Ahh.. those were good. Now element suck..), they're insanely light, but with soo much pop, and really really strong. I've always wanted to try one, and, yea, these decks are going to flatface, so I really hope I can pick one up! Although, however, more mad genius exotics, and a bunch of cuatros, will be out on the new shape soon ish, so I might wait to beat the initial rush. Seriously, great great work though! Noah makes some amazing decks, and the new shape has made me go from 90% wanting a cuatro, to 100% wanting one. Good stuff man! |

Well.. g12s are great decks I think they'll go fast ish.. not fast enough that anyone who really wants one wont have a chance at getting one though.. and there will be a stock on the cuatro website some time I think ^_^ |

| The carbon fiber makes it thinner, but at the same time makes it lighter and stronger. |

| Yeah, g12s are great, just not my preference in shape. My friend has a mad genius though and it's insane! And the new shape looks really sweet, probably gonna get one Not to mention that the one I got was from a messed up batch or something, and only had 4 plies, and snapped after like 2 weeks

Na, I didn't know anything about the fingerboard community and wooden decks. When I finally figured out that that wasn't the norm it was a bit late, and I had my BW so I decided against it. |
