Well, zshred hardly have a good 'legit' reputation. If he wants to help the scene, tell him to try and collaborate with Todd at NC

z shred is a bout as low or even lower than china wheels, id rather a pair of china wheels to zshreds lol

I think that's pretty cool, better than just reselling china wheels but a collaboration sounds good But a shame it's zshred though, and not someone more supportive like nocomply, this scene is so small, dedicated company owners need all the support they can get, not random ass non-supporters like the owner of zshred

I think he's going in the right direction with thw whole colaboration thing but like everyone else said, Zshred is not the company to do it with.

So, if he hasn't been in the scene for long, why has he tried to make money out of it? He should really have put proper research into this before he started selling other unlegit brands too. and all the 'jobs' he has? He quit his job, to try and bash money out of the fingerboard scene.

Peter, I bet the ffi hates you.
Just straight up.
Yeah man I've heard things about Zshread. I agree with what Rdcruzer is jiving... NoComply would have been a way better choice.
I mean I own China shit but that was before I knew about the scene. I plan never to buy another piece of China shit again now... Only buy from the real scene.

The advancement of the sport of fingerboarding is priority one for Northwoods. Northwoods makes an amazing deck that is designed to fit your fingers. Our decks are hand made by the owner and are available to you in different complete packages or buy just the deck to get all the great advancements we have to offer the sport of fingerboarding. Zshred makes great products too and we are a huge fan of their New Era wheels. NW and Zshred have put competition aside to work together and offer even more to the community.
The big news: You can purchase or deck for $29.99, deck/trucks 24.99, a complete with basic bearing wheels for only 37.99 or you can have a solid, professional setup for $58.99 which includes Zshred's New Era Wheels! New Era wheels are 100% made in the USA, beautiful and perform with solid perfection, just like our decks. We still offer the cheaper wheel to those who cant afford the better package, but we recommend the New Era wheels for the serious rider.
We are very excited about this opportunity and the complete boards with New Era wheels. The truly wonderful experience with this combination is unlike anything you have every rode. The wheels are available in clear and white with our hex bolt trucks in silver or gold. Find the combination that is right for you and find out the TRUTH about Northwoods decks, Zshred wheels and the tremendous efforts that go into bringing these products to your fingers.
If you have any questions or comments about Northwoods please find the real answers before drawing your own conclusions. Contact me at northwoodsfb@gmail.com if you want legit information. Negativity and rumors are the real sour in this industry. Get the true story at Northwoodsfb.com. We have dedicated our life to fingerboarding because we love it so much.

I don't know about the complete being professional, considering your company isn't that known, and Z-Shred isn't the best company out there...

I got my first Northwoods complete two weeks ago and the board I had been riding was a Zshred with new era wheels. My first and only bad impression about Northwoods were how much more awful the wheels were! I'm with anyone else on here who's tried fingerboard products from China. They're pretty awful in my opinion. But Zshred's new era wheels also fix that problem for me. Perhaps Zshred's wheels are not everyone's personal preference, but it's a step up from the wheels that were being sold with them. Every step up is a step toward success.
Jared has put a lot into making these boards, and he still has a ways to go, and many more ideas and improvements are being made as fast as possible. Of course, not everyone is going to like these boards. But please, consider trying one. I was having doubts myself, but I did not make any assumptions and I did not doubt their performance before trying one out. They ended up being WAY better than I expected them to be. This won't be the case for everyone, I understand, but I think it's wrong for a lot of people to put down any fingerboard company just because they prefer something different. People have been talking bad about them, yes. But people like them as well. Negative feedback is just going to encourage other fingerboarders not to buy a product based on another person's personal preference, when the product may have ended up being perfect for them.
I'm speaking for all fingerboard companies in general, not only Northwoods. Everyone keep your options open! These are amazing boards, and they are not the only products out there that are being rejected so easily. Decide for yourselves what sounds best, and if you question a product, ask someone who owns that product what they think about it. You may be surprised by it's performance if/when you decide to get your own. Happy fingerboarding!

True words Jake. You guys should actualy listen to what he is saying and some of you can't see that Jarred is putting his heart into his company.
