I might :) think this would be better :P suited for the Ranting Board rather :o than the FAQ Board. 8) Dunno, I figured this board :roll: was always reserved for forum-related |D material.

Hahaha!!!! That was a good one...
And sorry, man, but I'm not a skater. I could ask my friend though... but I'm not sure he'd know.

I honestly thought skateboards were skateboards. Yowza these things get technical...

I'd like to see skaters go back and use the 1980s model my grandma had when I was a little boy. Red, plastic board, maybe 4 inches wide at best, three feet long, no fancy stuff. :)

I still have the 2nd deck that came with the board originally, if you want that until you get a new one. As for a completely new deck, try Zero. I like their designs and they're street-based.
