Your hand gestures were pretty funny Looks alright I love the packaging. I won't pay $30 for a deck if it's not off flatface though. What was the red thin on top of the deck?

It was a little sheet of a velvet material to protect the deck within the encasing.

You can tell its handmade if you see it for urself. These decks are absolutely not China, but I will agree that 30 is a bit overpriced.

Well, ill restate that 30 is a but much. Honestly, id prefer to pay 20 and just get the deck alone in a bubble mailer (that's if the packaging is included in the deck price, which I imagine it is.) Aside from that, the quality and performance certainly isn't that of a "China", but also imo, not a 30 dollar quality. The shape is really unique. Medium concave and kicks, with that bump running through the deck. It seems like it almost keeps the board straight under your fingers. I'll do a full review in a week or so.

The Northwoods is not china, the deck is not china, iam sure. but the wheels and trucks are china and they got very proffesional pacaking.

I'd rather buy a China deck, then I know it performs hard decently. Haha
But it looks okay, I like your style dude.

Fair enough! Better safe than sorry. The shape really isn't for everyone, I can see why there's so much contradiction.

This has somewhat changed my mind about it, if the price would lower they'd have more sales

I completely agree. I'm not sure exactly how new of a company they are, but I don't think anyone's first generations of decks should be that much, whether they're incredible quality or not.
