It seems all the serious longboards (afroman, bds, etc.) are at least 9.5" wide. Is there anything out there in the 36" range that is more like 8 or 9"? Something to run seismic 155 or indy 159, that type of thing.
I've been skating my son's Deathbox Inouye, the older one with the Fuji/Wave graphics that is 33" x 8.75 (and then cut-in narrower in the tail), and 16.75" wheelbase. I dig it but, hey, it's his and they aren't really available anymore to buy another one and I don't want to thrash this one too much 'cause he digs the graphics. So what I'm thinking is something that's like 8.0 or 8.5 x 36 with 18" wheelbase. Is it custom order time?
