Makes sense. Thanks for sharing that perspective

This thread is amusing. We all love trampa quality but most of us don’t like their policy. Apple has proved that their market strategy works…they also proved that works only for a while. Trampa guys have been screwing up things to all vendors in the way to put “THEIR PRICE” starting with vesc and ending with their last compatible nut. A well respected seller is releasing a new product and i read a lot of “copycat crap” lol. Trampa got what they deserve. A good competitor. Feb-20-2019

First of all, our decks are not made of carbon - gf - epoxy. Epoxy-Carbon-GF splits on the first impact since it is hard and brittle. Trampa decks are made of a raw material that we actually make and weave ourselves, since it is not a material you can just buy anywhere. The material itself, it’s weaving patterns and moulding technique are the magic. We can weave every layer differently to achieve the beautiful flex and torsion properties that make our decks so outstanding. A Trampa deck will swallow the worst impact without splitting. You might see some scratches, but that is about it. This is why we give a life time warranty. We replaced some decks that have had bad accidents, simply because we want our customers to know that buying a Trampa deck is a worry free invest that will last your life time.
A clone might look similar, but that is about it. The magic is in the material itself. Concave is debatable and hinders the deck to flex over the entire length of the board. Some users made themselves simple flexible wedges to ad concave and that solution seams to be by far the better way to ad the desired foot stance area concave. The underside stays flat to mount a wider tray, the flex is not affected and the wedge can be printed to meet your individual requirements. I will invest some time into R&D of user specific concave wedges. Would be a nice feature.
For the ones with a printer: and
Finally we have our production line back to normal, after a moving to a new facility and installing all machines on new beds. New, special electric HS 11 style decks are on the way to us, no holes, perfect for under board enclosures. We stretched them a bit and added some width, be surprised. We did a lot of deck R&D since mid of last year and we hope to show you some results within the next couple of weeks. We never stopped moving forward!

I thought it was a little rich, you handled this very well given the whole thing was derived from a fairly harmless comic pun with of course had an inverse view of reality.
You make your stuff, you get to choose who cannibalizes your market and for how long, some peops don’t like that…and it should be moderated when it gets out of hand but I feel this forum will not give you a fair swing at the bat

I find this doubtful. You may have a custom weave manufactured for your sole use, but I just cannot see you guys having an entire facility for weaving. There is far too much caustic material required, the licenses alone would be millions anywhere in a european country. Maybe its just a translation issue that you made that claim, I hope so.
This is where we, and a lot of people, disagree. The absence of concave and being required to use bindings, as there is no other way to ‘lock in’ is why a lot of people do not use your decks for street. The presence of concave and the ability to ‘lock in’ without bindings is why @kaly’s deck is so valuable.
Yeah, great, now that someone else has already done it your interested. People have literally been talking about this for years and you were never interested, why now?
That’s the point though isn’t it? Add ons wil never be as strong or true as a manufactured/pressed deck. @kaly’s deck gives you all of this without having to re-do it every few months.

I don’t know about Frank, but if it were me, there would be no chance in hell I would show any pictures of a proprietary manufacturing process.

All of you on here bickering and im like WHERE IS THIS KALY GIVEAWAY?! lol

The reason I ask is because the manufacturer of basalt requires high heat which releases caustic gases. If I understand correctly, this process requires a 4/01 13 permit in the UK and it’s expensive, as in millions of euros worth of equipment.

So from finally getting your trampa board in December you’ve become the trampa pro.
I’m wondering if you genuinely hate the design or if you’re bitter you ordered a trampa instead of a kaly.
