I have to tell you all.....the deck is a thing of beauty! Shiny black botom, nice wheel wells, and it is pretty light compared to my Hustler. I gripped it and set it up with Randall 180's and my pink Shitfire Blackfarts that I have been saving for a special occasion  . I will try it in a bowl tomorrow evening. One teeny tiny complaint already tho.....I was expecting a deck with a deeper concave like the bigger Skaterbuilts. And to be honest except for a slightly wider tail, and the shiny black bottom this is a ringer for my Hustler which has what I consider to have a mild to medium concave. I am happy with it tho and can't wait to try it out. They even threw in grip and a handful of stickers...always nice to get free stickers |

| skated the new deck last night. nice feel to it and it is nice and light. pretty flexy tho, not used to the board moving under me, the Hustler was a rock. shape is perfect. was a little unsettling having the tail slide around on the coping when lining up to drop in, the bottom sheet is super slick. the Blackfarts work fine with it, 60mm is a good size for the 7' bowl we ride. I am sticking with it but not comfortable on it yet. |

I was just about to e-mail you that we got ours in, but I see you're already enjoying the sexyness that is Skaterbuilt...
Pics/prices/specs should be up @ MileHighSkates.com tomorrow.

rich, do you find it a little flexy? what do you weigh? I find I have to ride my back foot closer to the bolts to keep the flex action down.....but then if I lost 60 pounds maybe I wouldnt have that trouble
wonder if they could do a one off with an extra ply or two???

| the first runs had less formica than the normal skaterbuilts. the newer ones that are coming out should have the thicker formica |
