Z-Shred Emerge Complete Review SAM_1560

I got the package comes with a Bubble wrapped mailing enveloped and a Z-shred case that can hold 2 decks on it and it also comes with a lot of stickers. Their complete is already assembled right out of the box. You can also customize your complete by choosing the color of your trucks and as well as the type of wheels. truck is 29mm wide and the deck has a kingpin holes in it. The graphics of the deck is very well gloss lacquered and has a z symbol embedded on it. It still has a concave but not too deep. If you have an slim to average fingers the deck will be just fine for you. the 4 griptapes included are rubber, 2mm kinda rip tape feel, 1mm kinda rip tape feel and 1mm rubber with waffle design on it. I put the 1mm kinda rip tape feel on my deck because I'm used to it compared of the 3. I was amazed by the pop of it. It's very easy to do ollie and kickflip on this deck.

Z-Shred Emerge Complete Review SAM_1559

I noticed that on the low concave decks is that spins are much more slower compared to deep concave ones which is you can catch flip tricks much more easier in my opinion. By far it is a great deck I chose also the chrome silver wide trucks so that whenever I do grinds the paint won't tear off. The nuts of the trucks are also tight it won't get loose when you do tricks. the only downside that I can see is their pre-cut grip tape is way too small to cover the whole deck. I gave it as a feedback to them they said that I can cut the grip tape on the middle of the deck to make it even but I prefer not to because I'm just not used to it but It's not a big deal for me I just find it weird like deck is too wide for the grip.

Z-Shred Emerge Complete Review SAM_1557

All in all if I'm going to rate it from the scale of 1-10 I would give it an 9/10 The price over performance of it is just perfectly fine which you can get it for $39.16 + $5 shipping. It is a huge step up compared to TD and I honestly think that it is good for a beginners like me which playing for only 3 weeks. If you have the money I recommend it.
