Ever see this board before? Or the website? I have one of these on order - looks real fun. It'll run on sixtracks and the wheels of fire (of shit). I think it comes w/wheelwells his other big boards do, anyway.
I am supporting the biggest ego in skateboarding.
Waiting by the door...

Hmm... I'll have to add this to the shopping list. Wonder how it differs from the Black Cadillac model. |

Bill,
I would also like to know how it differs from the black caddy deck. I had one but could never get comfortable with the concave...a little too much for my taste.
But if this one is more mellow, then maybe it is worth considering. I would set it up with a Randal/Indy truck combo...using soft wedges. Wheels...if I went with the Alva wheels, it would either be the 62.5 hard duros or the 60mm/99s.

Now that is a sick deck. Why 7 ply, though? 8 plys for a board that length, for sure. Love the graphics.

I never rode the cadillac but this one is wider w/a squarer tail...the caddy looked like a big popsicle.
I'll ride it this week and report back.
And Mark - the "Praise the Lowered" tee is a riot. Thank you.

Glad you liked the shirt.
I'm going to order a couple of these decks (Alva American). Should be a good size for a lot of folks. |

I got it set up w/Tracker Sixtracks and some old Powell Two Rats 97a/60mm. I'll put some softies on it for Independence Day.
Minimal flex under 180# - can't wait to ride it.
