Thats a badass deck, Im usually not a huge fan of floro green but it looks really good on the CF.

Actually has great clearance, I’m running 78mm wheels with a 1/8th riser… cf is stiff, but the med/soft Venom risers and big 74a wheels tame much of it. Needs a foot stop and “w”…
A couple days ago I put ronin billets on with the tall barrels, it rides over rough ground even better now 
Super stable, propper 10 inch wide deck, running my trucks at 164mm atm, but going to try 154mm, also going to try flipping the my front rear hangars for 5mm rake front 2.5mm rear… trying to make it as predictable as possible for when it is wet.

Santa Cruz drop through I built for my wife
My main two boards. an old Santa Cruz deck (smaller more beat one) and a board I bought thinking I could replace it. I think it was called a zip something…
And my old gravity deck. Bombed crazy hills in PDX with that beast. It’s useless where I live now…
Obviously I sticker bomb things.
I’ve got two more complete decks (an arbor & landyachtz) and a bunch of old decks under my bed that I’m scared to pull out because the wife thinks I got rid of them a year ago. Lol

Another one in my quiver Rayne Dark Skull with Rogue cast trucks, needs some risers with the current wheels I’ve had to cup the RS bushings to stop wheel bite. It is less than ideal.

I also don’t like the lack of leverage I have from the rockered deck. I like to feel a little on top of the board/pivot point not under it. Call me strange, you get used to it after a while and then prefer the responsive nature

I feel like I was just looking at buying that deck recently. There’s always a plethora of boards for sale with it being a college town. So I’m constantly looking at used boards and low-balling people. Got a practically new Arbor complete deck for under $10 the other day lolololol

$10… I buying online… delivery…
The rocker and flares create awesome pockets and the center is really flat. I’m considering turning it “e” along with the Rogue trucks, 186mm wide so I should be able to get a pair of 6355 on there… It doesn’t have the best clearance. @michichopf rates them, I think he is running one with Ronins in Europe (well it was the last deck he hyped to me, so I could be wrong, but it is my guess).
Shout out to you MichiBro hope you’re killing it 
Thought I’d show off my quiver now I’ve just seen this thread…

Well since this just happened in the middle of my work night between work locations. I dropped the riptide off at home and grabbed the only board that was actually completely assembled.

My work deck is a metaltech. Good for pumping, freestyle and painting 
My real unpowered ride is a Globe Great Dane.
