| Good review, but didn't really understand what you mean under the "performance" part |

| Hmm. Then I'm not sure why the performance would be off... I thought you might be using a birch of some soet for inners. That is a more soft wood.
What is the size of the deck in length. Wheelbase range. And kicktail end to base of devk where transistion ends.
Measure all these in mm to the hundreths. For example our decks are 99.75mm. So 99mm amd 3/4 of a mm.
The "problem" very well may be in the kicktails as it is pressed well and there is no problem there.
Trust me, that took me a year to figure that one out. |

| I think if you shorten the nose/tail a bit they'd be nicer, definitely Glad you liked the review, and thanks everyone for the nice feedback |

| Good review Kerry. I honestly love mine right now... To be honest it's probably the best cheap deck you can get right now and Ryan works on them all the time so you can usually get one in a relatively short amount of time. I find doing tricks a lot easier on it but I think that's mainly because his shape is just about perfect to my size preference. I'm gonna be posting a couple of the reviews I've been working on for Lovedrug, Temple and Redemption soon... I just need to finish them off. Stay tuned folks. |
