| I personally don't like the proportions of the kick sizes compared to the rest of the deck. TD Expert Sk8 decks employ long kicks and a tiny wheelbase but I don't think it really works out.
But this is just the first opinion. Other people can post their thoughts. |

| I agree with Xi, kicks are too long and wheel base is too short. Might feel nice, I don't know but it looks a bit weird. |

| Thanks for the feedback guys! But the kicks aren't actually going to be that long, that is just a cutout from the mold I designed, so its not the exact length of an actual deck. I think that is like 113mm long, and a deck is 99-101mm. But the wheel base is a little shorter, just like on my other decks. |
