Idunno who on here skates. but I've been through three decks in the past week. I hate breaking decks, im not made of money, one was a fiberlite, and the other two were blanks, but still thats too often. does anyone else have this problem?!?!

 

I did when I was younger, either get sponsered or get the bulk quantity blanks off of the internet or a local skate shop.

 

I did, lol not the sponsor part, but 10 decks for 100 off ebay. I have two left...

 

you have to get the bulk bulk ones then, like 25-30 decks. It's all part of the game. You could always send letters to deck companies with your complaint that decks aren't made like they used to be and that they should prove it to you by sending you a bunch for free, or cheap.

 

Thats agood idea. I might try that thanks.

 

learn how to land right..I could make a snapped deck last for weeks, just make sure you have your feet landing on the trucks. But i always get blank decks, they have just as much pop as any other deck and are a half as cheap.

 

snapped decks happen....i'm sponsored by the local shop so decks come easy, btu in the meantime just buy in bulk and buy blanks for sure. Thats all i skate, pro boards honestly arent worth the money...

 

Yeah, bulks and blanks.

I pretty much always get used stuff cuz I'm stingy. I paid about 20 bucks for my first board, which was actually pretty nice. Free blank deck, used Destructos, Spitfire wheels, and China Reds. My local skate shop keeps used decks behind the counter, and gives em away for free as long as your smart enough to ask.... Best kept secret in town lol. You should see if your local shop has used goods for free.

Other than that I always get blanks; the graphics never last. Lately I've pretty much been stickin to my Sector 9 longboard.

 

word to blank decks in large bulk. my friend sold Element blanks back in the day. he'd buy a huge amount of decks and large rolls of Blackmagicgrip tape and sell a deck with grip tape for $30. i always got em cheaper thogreat decks, goodquality and fairly light.and i didnt care so much if they snapped since it wasnt some like $60 deck with some fancy design..

 

I always carried three boards in the car when I was out. Snap one, grab the next. Repeat. LOL
