Edit:
'Can I start at any age?
You can start at any age. Children under 10 should ride under adult supervision.'
LOL. And why the hell is Northwoods distributing Z-Shred wheels and STILL trying to claim to be legit? Northwoods just comes across as a bunch of phony marketing crap.

| Peter, no offence but he has a point.... Z shred is eh... and the fact of the mater is Northwood is selling it.. Another thing is, you can't really tell him to say positive things when it's his opinion. We have freedom of speech for a reason you communist. |

I know he has a right to his opinion, I was just joking Tyler, jeeez man and the whole Z shred thing has nothing to do with me and the company is legitimate but it aint my decision to get rid of the wheels... |

| The communist thing was a joke as well, either way it would be allot nice in my opinion if they made their own "GRADE A" wheels instead of distributed Z Shred wheels. That's just me though. |

| Okay so ive been back on the forum 2 whole days and started looking at this thread and really I read every comment on all 4 pages read every word on the site examined all the products and watched team videos and this company seems beast the decks look georgious and besides selling z-shred wheels I don't see much wrong with the company other than about 10 haters who have been on the for since what July or August. When I first posted JT decks on here all everyone did was hate but guess what Hating just makes people famous (except Holden) And all i see is this thread blowing up and guess what every time you comment and it mOves to the top of the portal page someone is going to look thus more people are hearing about the company and you guys trying to bash the company out of existence for selling z shred wheels isn't going to work and tbh when JT started getting bigger the best mold I ever had was made by the owner of prowood and sold to me from the owner. So if anybody wants to hate then hate on me the company owner who has to use someone else mold and couldn't even keep the compang alive quit hating on a company that's still open that is working hard to be the best they can And to all the new and old people that are hating and getting 800+ post in 2 months your ruining the forum. Thanks and just an FYI id kill to be sponsored by these guys so stfu Justin |

Just why do people give it so much shit to write essays on stuff like this man, it's just a fingerboard company, the owner's not doing anything wrong so why hate on it so much! Exactly what I am wondering, you guys do not know the owner like I do, he dislikes posting stuff here because of the hatred........ I think I liked this forum when I just signed up |

| I really feel that Northwoods is in it for the money. Why does he need a copyright when he has just started, and his excuse when people complained was, to quote from Peter A, 'He's new to the scene', so why the fuck has he started a business? He also only picked up on the fact selling all china stuff was bad once people said, then he paired up with Z shred.
Sorry, But I'm not liking northwoods... |

Sorry, But I'm not liking northwoods... It's fine if you don't support Northwoods but the owner has been fingerboarding for more than 10 years and he is a real ripper, he just aint wiith the scene as much as you and I are. # Alex yah legend |

| Like RD said, it's just fingerboarding. If you don't like Northwoods then don't pay any attention to them. Just ignore their posts. It's that simple. |

Sorry, But I'm not liking northwoods... Actually, its the first plan of any business to make a copyright so that your product and image is protected. Its 101, really. Thats me standing up for business method, not so much this company. I dont know too much about this company, so i wont protect it. The products look suspect, that much i can say. |

| Alex J Making a brand means taking something serious. I call it putting on your big boy pants (its not 101, more graduate school type of thing). There is more to a company than just pretending you do stuff. You always write negative and hurtful responses on my post. You are entitled to your opinion, but I challenge you to educate yourself before making such assumptions and accusations. You truly do not know one real fact about me or what my company is doing. You are however, making a true effort to sabotage a company for bringing their A game to the table. You can be mad at me for being legit and taking fingerboarding as serious as Burton takes snowboarding or DC takes skate shoes. I believe fingerboarding deserves such a level of respect. ANYONE can make a fingerboard, it is easy. That is why there are so many pop up "companies". What is not easy is making a fingerboard perfect, high quality and full of thought, designing/milling a steal press, registering the company for legal trade and making art public for the world to see and more importantly use. I don't know anything about TEMPLE fingerboards so I pay you the respect of staying off of your updates. I spend over 10 hours a day working on my boards and company and have so for over a year. I eat and have a place to live because I work freelance production, editing and so forth. I support several riders (world wide), events (world wide), I teach people how to fingerboard, I donate my time and boards to a Children's hospital here, I even have special programs in place to help riders grow and those who truly need the sport receive boards. Whatever your complaint about any of my intentions, know this. The sick girl in the wheelchair and nursing staff did not care if my board had Zshred wheels or that a small group of haters on a forum have ignorant things to say. They cared about how to do a railslide or where else in the play room they could skate and how thankful they were for the experience. I am clearly in this for my love of fingerboarding and need to share it. Northwoods is a tool for me to spread the love. Question my motivation all you want, I know why I was put on this earth. I can bring a smile to a face, young and old, rich or poor, any race, sick or healthy with a small skateboard, I make with my bare hands. I am following my heart and making my dreams and the wishes of others come true.
Peace to you Ps. I added Zshred. I carry the same stock I always have.
