Just another company in the long line to be into this thing for the money.

Personally, why would their riders care if the wood was from China or the US...they can get free decks whenever they want. And besides, it only costs 3 bucks a deck if you are getting them from China.

One other thing that bothers me about some deck manufacturers. They claim to support the US skate scene and indeed press their wood in the states. But I'm finding out that if you want to get a heat press done that they ship that piece off to China to do. I believe that the costs in China to do heat presses are like 30 cents. I say BS-you don't get one cent of my money if you have China do any part of the process.

Consolidated might very well do the majority of their decks in China, I don't really follow that crap. But I think that those particular decks were printed in the US, in a small quantity.

Hey OMA, Why would you want to press with a heat press? Cold pressing is better for the wood.

I think he meant heat transfer graphics.
