Thanks Cfav and Cnova,

I really enjoy the deck!!

I drilled an extra set of rear truck holes to have a 23.5in WB to go with the stock 21-22in
WBs... So it multi tasks well....

The mellow concave lets the camber do it's thing and keeps the torsional flexing to a
minimum.

Love the Nosler bullet shape, a classic racing deck look.

Later, Tod

Oles is the man! I can believe the save you made on Hobby Park, you
moved like a super-hero!

Congrats on your jug, and the big beef award.

Nice to hang and skate with the Freak Brothers.

maybe he will grip the whole board next time, might help him stay on. However, that was one sick save, and I loved watching it over and over and over in the mexican party room.

Mehico?

That's the big Mexican party room to you Civ.

Hey, anybody get a line on the pics Gilmour took in there? There had to be close to 50 watching the vid.

Gilmour, post it here or where?
