Heh just tried using a tech deck, I set up it up with bollies and pheon ng tape and it's really easy to do tricks on, anyone else have this? Like I can pull switch and nollie heels really much more consistantly with it haha.

you know what, i'm still using tech decks as my setup :'(

im getting a lowpro tiramisu with lowpro wide trucks though spretty soon... cant wait. My first real fingerboard.

Tech deck - no control.

For some reason, I can do hardflips more consistently on Tech Decks. They look a lot better, too, haha.

Heh, interesting topic.

I made a setup of a G7 TD with Creekwood tape, TD risers, China regular trucks with Creekwood soft bushings and Close Up wheels. This thing performs so amazingly well. I'm going to build another setup like this as I'm going to give one to my old friend that I used to fingerboard every day with.

Gonna put brt's on this setup just to see how it feels

take a pic finn with Brt's haha.. yeh i land Tres so much more consistent haha with a TD with Rip

I can't use them at all :S

interesting some people can and others cant... as they are skinnier i find them harder to control flip tricks with, and not so easy to grind with.

i tell you the tech decks from 2008 are really good, smoother wheels and better stock grip, my mate has one

I can do tres and hardflips more consistent on tds but kickflios for ne are like super hard!!

I would wanna see a pic with BRTs Finn!

^that, kickflips are hard, but tres aren't.. Haven't tried one with rip in forever, I need to do that again!

i don't find kickflip on tds hard, but i find it hard to keep them to one rotation

tres are easy i think becuase the board it pritty light

I just ordered and now im awaiting my first non tech deck fb, I assume the size will give you better control over flips etc, but o don't think I would ever stop using them because there defo a cheap alternative

yes that is exactly what i am hoping for - which board did you order and how long have you been fingerboarding?

i got a 4 corner complete, looks nice decent reviews really looking forward to its arrival
im finger boarding about 6 months

Are they bad? Or are you just trying to be the man by putting me down, bound to be better than what I had.

you should check out there site very reasonable prices and stuff looks good.

I don't know how quickly an fb will get destroyed hopefully not at the same speed I go through boards in real life, but when it does I'm gonna step it up again and get something nicer.

Now that I'm aware of brr stuff especially the trucks i really want them :shock:

yeah when i discovered brr it blew my mind!

four corner is chinaa loads of other not well know company get china stuff 4cf just became famouse

Ah so I take it China is bad, is it the deck itself chinese maple makes inferior skateboard decks I know from experience

so you skate too?

i dont know anything about this stuff :/
