Won't be getting a new deck for a while, but i wanna get an idea...

[Skate_The_Rain]

on what i might be getting next, i don't wanna break my deck and not know what to get

and this time, it's at 4-way tie...

Girl vs. Krooked vs. Toy Machine vs. Habitat
(i'm slightly leaning towards habitat and girl and slightly away from Toy Machine)

i'm currently riding a Enjoi Whitey Panda 7.5
so far i think it's good deck, i just wish i had gotten a 7.75 to make my landings cleaner and my overflipping habit go down

i've heard great things about habitat, girl is seeming to get real cliche (dun hurt me) but it seems you can't go wrong with them, Krooked seems to be sort of a cult favorite but idk how good they really are, and toy machine is really just out of curiosity

so anyone got any tips?

[HabitatSk8ter]

Habitat

[Skate_The_Rain]

Habitat

yeah... i'm seriously starting to lean towards that
but then again, i really wanna try out a girl, cuz they seem to be the most popular
(and i read that review on the habitat, is it true the tail and nose are like "Squarish"?)

[knightsoftheabyss]

Girl> Toy

But I can't help you out on the rest.

[Vans4eva]

Girl habitat or krooked. all 3 are solid boards, can't go wrong.

[girismyhomie]

krooked easy

[lakai_or_die]

krooked or habitat easily
girls have shit for pop and are popular because of fully flared and mine razortailed in 4 fucking days 4 while i had my mystery for 3weeks until it started to and girls snap easily dont get one
not sure about toy as i heard they suck nowadays

It's round but kind of squarish they don't look awkward or anything I should have rephrased my review. Girl's suck pen0r. From what I've heard DLXSF boards are the best I'm getting a Real next week. Habitats are amazing great shape great concave great pop last a long time

[welcome 2 hell]

dont get a girl there shit get a krooked or real coz there both the same or toy machine i've heard good things about toy machine krooked and real but its really up to you

[Fallen_rain]

GET DARK STAR!!!!!!!! hahahahahaha never get dark star they heavy as hell

[obstacle2252]

krooked
they last and dont razortail quickly
the reason its like a cult favorite here as u say, cause its on of the best boards

[DroppinBows]

Habitat.

[lilro]

krooked easy

Wow, I am fucking sick of hearing you rant about Girl decks and rave about Mysterys in EVERY FUCKING THREAD.

If you get the right pro's deck on Girl, it will skate well. The best shapes are the Mike Mo and Koston decks. Most of the other ones have that soggy feeling and snap easily.

Mysterys on the other hand, feel like waterlogged Zero decks. I'm getting this feeling that they're the leftover Zero wood that was too shitty to make it into production. I'm not sure if I just got a warped deck because it seems like everyone on here likes them, but mine was soggy feeling, had ZERO (0) pop, and chipped like a mofo. Same with my friends' Mysterys..

Out of all the options the OP chose, I would recommend Krooked. All of the stuff you hear about DLXSF decks is true, they are simply amazing. Toy Machines are great too, but the layers of the deck separate relatively early in the life of the deck, and after that, it's all downhill.

[pain.]

ive had many a toy in my day and i have loved them all.

the girl i had was pretty decent too, just watch out what kind of model you get.
i one of the koston models and it held up really well.

girl uses the same wood in all their decks just different molds so your wrong there and making yourself look stupid for saying that id gladly neg you if i could for that

you prolly had a bad batch because ive had 3mysteries all great boards
my 2nd mystery chipped but only once and it was because i was skating this 4 in town square and a security guard knocked me over and my board went tail 1st on the ground

Let's see, where in my post did I say anything about different wood?

You're proving me right, buddy, I said some shapes(thus meaning molds) skate differently than others. Many of the decks I've tried from different pros(like Rick Howard's) don't skate well, feel soggy, and snap easily. In molds like Koston, Capaldi, and Malto decks, the boards skate well.

[graffeedy5]

Girl decks are made with shit wood, they are really overhyped cause of the team.

Krookeds are great, I like them alot, they have a great feel to them and dont get soggy easily. Krooked kicks the shit out of all your other choices.

if a brand uses the same wood a different shape isnt gonna make it feel soggy unless the wood is soggy feeling
shape doesnt affect how easily a board will snap unless its bolt patterns are say further apart or something like that if the wood is strong the deck will be strong
just admit your wrong

[shaanXattack]

You're trying to get me to admit I'm wrong but you haven't said a single thing to prove why Mystery decks are any good..

[lakai_or_die]

im not trying to prove mysteries are good you're saying that certain shapes makes a deck soggy and snap quicker when thats abunch of bullshit
a shape will only improve your personal liking of the board not how much pop it has or how easily they snap

[HabitatSk8ter]

I concour(if thats how you spell it lol) on the fact that shape has no affect on the "soggy feeling". :)

[shaanXattack]

The shape itself doesn't affect it, but if you try out different Girl pro models, which I'm sure everyone on here is too hardheaded to do, you will notice a difference in quality.

[WhiteyPanda]

Guys come on your attacking shaan because of a deck he likes he kinda has a right to defend it I don't see why everyone has to gang up on him

[lakai_or_die]

no you fucking wont are you really that fucking stupid girl uses the same wood meaning the same fucking quality maybe you like the shape better but you're not gonna get better quality skating a fucking koston deck instead of a carrol deck now shut the fuck up

[mindtrix34]

I've had both krooked and Girl. I say krooked, but the Girls that I had were good too.

[lakai_or_die]

Guys come on your attacking shaan because of a deck he likes he kinda has a right to defend it I don't see why everyone has to gang up on him
im not ganging up on him because he likes girl its the fact that hes saying shape affects how long a deck lasts

[shaanXattack]

no you fucking wont are you really that fucking stupid girl uses the same wood meaning the same fucking quality maybe you like the shape better but you're not gonna get better quality skating a fucking koston deck instead of a carrol deck now shut the fuck up

Ahaha, you're fucking funnnnnny. You're getting all worked up because I like a company you're too pissy to try, and that since you haven't tried enough of them, you wouldn't understand what I'm saying.

You also try to use the same facts to attack me in other posts.

Fuck you.

[lakai_or_die]

fuck you ive tried girl ive skated my friends before too they suck
get over it

[ssonsk]

Girls are good boards for like a couple days. Now enjoys just flat out suck.

[Fallen-is-ballen]

Girls have a sick shape, but mine razortailed in a week and the plies were extremely thick.

[HabitatSk8ter]

To tell you the truth, girl decks are actually pritty good, i think the team says it all, i dont think Eric Koston or Mike Carroll would be riding "shitty" decks, i do admit they arent as quality as other decks but they are pritty legit, i wouldnt mind having one

[lakai_or_die]

theyre pros theyll be able to adapt to any brand they get sponsored by and actually thinking since theyre team skates them means theyre good just proves how little you actually know

[HabitatSk8ter]

? i never typed that lakai, thats definately not what i think. I was stating my opinion soo i really dont get it why are you being all defensive??? Putting it your way "theyre pros theyll be able to adapt to any brand" then you should agree with me in that a skateboard is a skateboard anyone can adapt to anything wether you are pro or not there are just some advantages some decks have over others. People have opinions so if your gunna be all bitchy and defensive over an opinion maybe you shouldnt be posting.

[irideongirls]

girl is so good. get mccrank shape. mccrank shape > all

[mindtrix34]

theyre pros theyll be able to adapt to any brand they get sponsored by and actually thinking since theyre team skates them means theyre good just proves how little you actually know
I've had 2 Girls and they were fucking great. Wow, they were bought because someone likes the team? No way? How else are they going to fucking market it?

pro skaters switch boards like every few days....so they don't really know how long they last

[Always The Hard Way]

i like mystery,blanks and habitat

[lakai_or_die]

pro skaters switch boards like every few days....so they don't really know how long they last
exactly im saying they dont last long enough to be spending $60 for something that lasts 4days

[xVivalaskater94x]

Girls are the worst out of the four.

I had a toy machine it was pretty good it didnt break until after 3 months which is pretty good. But I did start to get razor tail after 2- 2 1/2 months.

I had an AWS which was awesome except the fact it snapped after 2months. Fantastic shape hardly any chips. I hear Habtat is just a stronger version of an AWS.

I have never skated a krooked but a guy told me at the shop thats all he skates and there good.

[mindtrix34]

My Girl lasted more than 4 days. Both of them did.
