iirc, bollie decks aren't that great^
try temple decks, they're wide and cheap.

Hey I about to buy a redemtion but I dont know which mold to chose could someone give there opinion?

They're all really good but I'd go with the MMC med/high

And skullcracker, don't get a bollie complete, they're really not that good to do tricks on haha xD and are expensive!
I'd suggest an FL deck, where you get to choose how wide it is and whatever, you'll get the perfect deck with medium kicks and have it wide! The link is in my signature

But if you want something cheaper, but I wouldn't actually say is better in performance imo then get a redemption, redemptionfb.com

And as for the other parts, check out nocomplyfingerboards.com for some wheels and trucks! The smoothie wheels are like bollies but I've heard they're much better and come with the awesomeness packaging! And the wide trucks come in some cool colours that are at a cheap price

The owners of the three companies I've suggested are all amazing people, who try their best pushing fingerboarding to the next level and need these customers! Go get a wicked setup

... I find I can't ollie or do like tricks unless I have an obstacle to ollie onto or over.

I don't know why but I can't seem to just ollie or do tricks on the spot? Like flatland or flatground stuff I can't even seem to ollie...

>_<

HALP.

pretend your doing tricks over something. I think your one of those fingerboarders who need speed to do tricks, huh? Just practice more flatground you will get it in no time ;D

It's not even really speed I don't even know what my problem is. Like I can grind and do stuff onto obstacles fine and my ollies are actually pretty clean. It's just when there is nothing there to ollie over it just never works.

Well the only thing that will work is practice haha

Awesome.

I'm going in the right direction then.

I will take your advice to pretend I'm ollieing over stuff though that sounds like it might help.

Thanks Brian you're a boss.

No problemo

I typed up a whole guide for you and you didn't even look at it

Max, get momentum by going backwards to get that motion of the pop on the ollie and then scoop forward

can u answer my other question that i just asked

Are Mitt Fingerboards any good? 'cause I might be getting one from fingershop for Christmas,
so, are they any good?

^Yea, but the mellowest shape. the other ones are way too deep imo

Could someone suggest any Uk made decks 'cause my mum said she's only ordering from the UK? which means no redemption

Blosom Fingerboards. Possibly the best ever british deck company!

Yeah, Blosom seems to be the only decks made in the UK. If it's just UK distribution you're after, you might still be able to buy some decks frmo Fusion Distribution. I'm not sure if they're closing or closed though. Maybe someone can update us on the status.

My other suggestion would be to look in the second hand market. Unless you REALLY don't like used stuff, it's a really good idea. You're already in the best place to look for things. Check in the Buy/sell/trade part of this forum, the majority of people here are based in the UK.

Try 6 or 9mm ply wood^

I used 9mm for mine, its really good. You could use even thicker wood if you are going to do the park "stacking style" like the Unite park.

yea, I used 12mm ply

Thanks Xi, ill have look at fusion and see, and ill look at the buy/sell/trade section
