In the first Mix of Expert Sk8 boards, there are only 6 boards. Only 1 of the 6 has soft wheels. That's the Almost board. Actually, the Almost graphic is my favourite of the 6 that are out. All Expert Sk8 boards come with soft bushings already installed and you'll find a spare set of hard bushings in the packaging too. The first mix only features high concave decks and they're developing low concave Expert Sk8 boards for the future. You didn't specify your concave preference so it doesn't matter. TL;DR STOP LOOKING AT BABIES' BALLS. THE ALMOST BOARD IS THE ONE YOU SHOULD BUY. |

Gilly, I know my stuff. Studies show that British babies have larger baby-balls because they can act as floatation devices in the case of a flood. |

Yes. The answer to this: - OneNightInFiji wrote:

Like close up? Or even oaks? Thom FuckinGnarly has one with soft wheels. Based on what he said, I am guessing the TD soft wheels are not as soft as Oaks/CU. I still need to get a board with soft wheels to see for myself and add to my TD collection. So yeah, Thom has one and I think a few people here have tried his board, including Kerry. Maybe they can answer. |

| I tried the soft wheels and they're like a grippy as ywheels. horrible imo, but if you like physically having to push with all your strength to do a powerslide, they're probably alright |

| Was gonna buy one, but seriously, whats the point, it's a shitty quality mass produced product which won't be used as my main and none of the components will actually be useful for me. |
