I'm currently riding a 38" Alva American BandAid deck, and I like it a lot! I'm Looking for something similar because I have a large crack making its way across the middle of my deck. I was wondering if anyone has seen the Dogtown Shit List? If so, what is the wheelbase, nose and tail lengths, concavity, etc. I thinking about buying the SkaterBuilt TRimline but, it costs $96.00 !!! I like 20-21 wheelbase, double kick nose and tail, good concavity. I've also thought about the Bulldog Gashead but it's really wide. Any suggestions? |

The Skaterbuilt Trim Delux is more than worth the money, in my opinion...
otherwise
have you checked out the Gravity Brad Edwards? It's a nice stick.. nice and light for a 40"er ..double kick, good concave, 22" wb.... |

If you want a board like the Alva you will have to check out Afroman, Gringo or Skull skates they all have longboards with a similar nose. The Skaterbuilt deck may best the best deck for the money listed but the nose comes to a point. While it does have a nice "Kick" to it I'm sure there are lots of tricks that will be more difficult to do on the Trim Delux because of the nose. |

I just ordered my Trimline deluxe. The guys said they could modify the nose to the shape like the Howard H. Model. I can't wait to skate it! |

Skaterbuilts are sweet.
Check the for sale section
Comets are sweet also, I'm working
on the comet collection err quiver!!!
I believe those two are my favs,
I still need to get a Fibreflex though
but I can wait because I prefer rocker over camber.
But then again a S-camber would be cool to check out.
There are some really cool boards
being made these days. |
