How do you deal with the wheel bite with 6" wheels?

Nice. I wasn’t worried for PU set up but for big AT wheels

I don’t run this deck with these. It’s just an option to mock it up.

Ok, thank you all for answering the polls. After the Chinese holidays I am going to propose these two options and see which it is more feasible in terms of rigidity/time/production cost. For the single groove, I need to ask first. Not sure is possible without increase the deck thickness.

Overall measures:

36inch length 9.6 wide pockets 530 x 82.5 x 24 mm (25mm in the drop through version)

Option 1: Drop down

Option 2: Drop Through/Down

I had to keep it open at the ends because I was afraid to get wheel bite if I go closer to the deck. Once they make it, it would be possible to test it and see if it is necessary or not. Just in case I increased of 1mm the thickness of the board. So in this version the pockets are 25mm deep, instead of 24mm.

Ok, agreed on the prototype. I should get it in 20-30 days. Exciting! :laughing: Of course I went for the carbon fiber top layer. Specifically drop down for the moment. We will discuss drop through later that it’s easy anyway. I wanted as strong as possible so added carbon fiber and fiber glass. Should be like this at the end I think it’s sick!

Looks very good… I dont know why i have never seen this thread!

I am not that huuuuge fan of the bulldog shape… i loke it more smooth. But thats totally a personal thing!

2 things that go through my head:

Is the Core really stable enough? U create it from a solid piece of wood… i thing this is not as stable as a layered version, isnt it? I really dont know… just my first impression…

The channels are very deep… go for a deph of 22mm. Safe that two mm for more stabiltiy. The haya even works with 20mm on the prototype.

No I really wanted a little short tank. Thst was the purpose. I had all more flat deck so far and really want a drop down.

For the core, that exactly what I asked but making a metal mould to press the right shape immidiately means 800$ only for the mould. Since it can be a single deck project that would be just crazy. The block of wood is actually made by like 35 sheets laminated with epoxy glue and then milled. So it’s not a single block. The company said they have made other is the past and should be fine Of course the more core the better. That’s why I out the central wall too. Concerning the grooves thst would be awesome but how can it work with 22 only. Unity is 22mm, NESE module too. If you just add a damping material then won’t fit anymore. Maybe 23mm can work but would be really tight

Unity is 19mm :stuck_out_tongue:

But u are right. More space is better… Was just my thoughts. on the Haya prototype i just got 20mm space by wrong milling I created some smaller nese modules and it works just fine. No dumping material of course, only from the top lib.

Therse bottom lib looks cool… how is it made? Also wood? Maybe i should read the hole thread frist ^^

Ah good I probably measured wrong mine haahah. Yes same principle. Wood. I had to go with Baltic birch instead of maple because is already expensive as hell to make it. But I then found that is quite common for integrated deck due to the higher price of production. My original idea was to add fiberglass sheets in between but since it has to be milled it’s not possible because you will break the fiber anyway. I put the lid below because I didn’t like the idea of standing on the weaker parts above the electronics and because the drop down shape makes really difficult to put the lid on top. The module I have for the NESE are 21mm so maybe 23mm deep will work too.

@rey8801 How’s progress?

Is your deck compatible with 110mm wheels? or bigger?

Hi. Both of the decks are in production at the moment.

The Bully deck is taking longer because is really complicate to make while the other one is almost done. Couple of weeks I should have both finally! Had to change a bit the design to accommodate production limit. I will post it once I have them

Shoot from the AT deck production gallery

Tha Bully Deck is inspired to switchblade landyachtz so what you can run there you will probably be able to run it on this deck too.
