wow words cant even describe how fucking pissed i am about the decks i have been going through. I break a deck every week and its a fucking joke. I really need to go on a diet i weigh 168 and im 5 11 and its not like i fucking suck hell if anything i ripp i do huge sets and handrails and shit like that but being big and breaking boards is fucking gay. every god damn paycheck i get its goes towards a new deck and shit. Im looking for a durable ass board with steep concave so any suggestions??? thanks so much if you respond to me with a logical answer.

Thanks so much man you have no clue how much of a hard time im having. Seriously i feel like quiting because im so fucking big but the thing is i dont suck at all. I have ollied the brooklyne banks ten and shit like that but its like now i break my decks on everything. Should i start running more and go on a diet god this sucks. I envy you skinny kids that dont snap decks like us big guys.

i said rev decks that shit thats not made from wood and that u can park a car on and will just flex and it looks really strong and also those almost decks that the put carbon fiber foam in might work but it might be a gimmick but i dont know

thanks alot man. I just dont feel any hope or anything. All of my friends are skinny as fuck and they are never break decks and i break a deck like every session and it really gets to me. I love skating handrails and huge gaps though. Im thinking about getting a toy machine?

haha yea i dont break boards too bad, but i know what you mean.
i know kids who suck and have had their boards for months and are all suprised when i snap one in like a month.

ayjay12sb
04-03-2008, 06:02 PM
haha of course i sweat like crazy man. But the only thing i like about being big is having my super sexy long legs that help me pop my ollies as high as i can jump.

Toy machine is your best bet.

DLX makes some pretty tough decks.

If you want something that wont snap, revdecks are good for that, but they just dont feel right, the shape is fucked.

Santa Cruz Powerlyte. Fuck dwindle boards.
http://www.santacruzskateboards.com/decks/index.php

"PowerLyte's super thin, 8-ply maple veneers and bullet-proof top layer yield the strongest, lightest skateboard decks available. Constructed 90% of wood, it's the other 10% that makes PowerLyte decks incredibly strong and 22% lighter. Compared to conventional wood decks, PowerLytes flip quicker and are 150% stronger."

if u wanna something cheap and durable get Blind Eternal Life Carbon Texalium or new Almost Impact support deck. They are at same price as Chocolate/Girl desks in my country and 2x more durable than them.
