It doesn't fucking exist, the pop is in YOU...

Unless the board is waterlogged or some other type of handicap
THE POP IS IN YOU, NOT THE BOARD...

I hate it when people blame there low tricks on the pop of their board, unless it got rained on or is extremely old, it's not the board, YOU are the one who pop down on the board...

ok i'm done.

If you can dunk a basketball, then you pretty much have a lot of pop.

it does sorta,

have a few decks, never get any of them wet because i hate skating when its even slightly damp. one deck has really good pop and managed to ollie on top of a bench's seat (was a little high for me) and the other i found hard to ollie say 12 inch, it really does. not so much that you can always blame it on pop but different wood and glues made differnt hardnesses, making it better to pop

I have a really old Zero deck that was never rained on, but flexes a good quarter inch when trying to pop. It spent a few years in my garage, so I'm guessing the tempurature fluctuation softened it up quite a bit. It only takes a few inches off my max height though, so I don't get why people complain.

Now that I think of it, keeping your deck in a climate-controlled room will probably help keep the board stiff longer.
