| Looks cool! Are you going to use wedges to correct for the camber at the truck mounts, or just use different baseplates? |

Nice work you hippy bastard
Seriously no joking nice deck man.
shouldn't the back of the deck dip down to dumb the rear truck?
Is it gonna drop thru? can you wedge it on the top and have room for travel and height?
07 season like you race in events?
I dig on the Fishbone w pirate patch thats cool as hell |

@ all: thanks for the compliments
@ buckethead: will do
@bigfish: when i stand on the deck it is near flat, but yes gonna wadge the first truck maybe to make it more aggressive cause randall types mounted like this become less aggressive..
@ kidsonwheels
about the dumbing down, that is what it does
about the drop tru, hehe well no i like to make holes in my decks without a reason 
what do you mean with the place for traveland height, if you mean place for the wheels it has
and yep 2007 should be the year i start racing, not for racing sake, just to be able to ride more on closed roads |

Looks good Kenny.
Now, I know I'll sound ignorant, but how and why do you drop the trucks thru the deck?
The graphic looks fuckin' rad bro, now get a haircut hippy

well it's a speed board, and a truck mounted in this way is just way more stable then a normal mounting, cause now my deck hangs on the trucks, instead of leaning on them, and just way more controleable and stable on speed, also makes it a bit lamer, but i love to skate soft bushings so that kinda compensates
and get a haircut, heheh, i'm on my way lol |
