My new longboard! :D

in #blog7 years ago

My old deck was starting to crack, time to buy a new one :D
Not only did I buy one, I bought TWO!

The old board (the top one obviously), still looks okay. I had been using it for 1.5 years, every day... I've stunted it, drove it over a frozen beach, slided it on ice, soaked it tons of times in rain... Now it's dead!

I loved my old deck, but really wanted more freedom. So I decided to pick a smaller (37") deck. It's lighter, it has two tails (which makes doing tricks a lot easier), and it's more fun :D

The board at the bottom is a big cruiser deck. More the standard skateboard shape, but bigger in size and with longboard wheels.

This was all in the package:

Normally they add a cool t-shirt, now they added a bright pink bag xD

Let's put the trucks on the cool new deck!

The result:

It's PERFECT!

Congrats with your new board @maxse - I wish you will have a ton of fun "grinding" the streets!

I'll give you an upvote for the coolness of your new boards!

BROOOOO! That one is a drop carve! I love it! It is incredibly good for carving and cruising! I have a 37" 2013 model. If it is for cruising i recommend you to use it with Gullwing Sidewinders (really good trucks by themselves), it turns really nice! I would love to have one as new as yours <3.

Unfortunately it's not looking new anymore :p
I'm using gullwing charger II trucks and I love them! They're not as twitchy as the original bear trucks :)
Photo of your current board? 😂
5 years old... You don't have rain in your country? :p

Sick board dude!! I really like the art and design done on it. Thanks for sharing!!!

Thanks! I rather had this print on it:

Unfortunately it wasn't available. Not that it matters a lot. I rarely see the bottom side of my board :P And it'll get scratched up fast anyways :P

nice boards...

Thanks! You ride one too?
