i might get a flip deck (really cheap 20 bucks) so how is the quality of them?

they are a pretty average shape
nice pop for 2 weeks
nice flex
if youve been skating a while dont expect it to last over a month
but for 20 $ thats a good deal!
get it

a month is pretty good for me, my last few boards only lasted 2 weeks so cool.

the shape is the same but my penny shroom deck had a deep concave which flips dont normally have
it snapped the third day i got it

if you want something stronger than a flip, try baker they are the same but much tougher

i own one right now and i had to order another deck. these boards suck. they are really flat and the tail wears down really fast. they dont chip that bad but once you get a little chip it will chip and chip and chip till you have a big chip...LOL. but anyway. since its only $20 i say go for it. but be prepared to make ALOT of adjustments and also be ready to buy another deck. and after a while the shape of the deck will become sorta like a rectangle..........
