I Got this 7.75" DGK board at the end of June.

First Impressions: It has a mellow concave and is some what light compaired to Mystery and the average shop deck. Also the tail and the nose are the same size so you don't have to worry about which side you're skating (if you're not into that nose/tail bs).
Skateability: When i started skating it the pop was amazing and i just fell in love with it. It stayed krisp for 2months and the pop was still like brand new.
Durability: It didn't chip for 2 months untill i slung it across a parking lot (like an idiot). I also started skating stairs and loading docks every other day when i got it. It held up great and had no pressure cracks(even after i broke it). I even tried to break it, i tried stomping it, jumping in the middle, i even tried to break it board sliding real hard still didn't break or crack. Eventually it broke a little when i let this fat kid skate it and he stomped a bigspin pivot. Even after he some what broke it i skated it for 2 more days fine. I eventually put it to sleep on Friday.
After thoughts:
Is it worth buying: Yes it's a good board for $54 and will last you a long time even if you break alot of boards.
Will you get another one: I do believe my next board will be a DGK unless i cannot find one, which i doubt will happen.
The only thing i don't like about DGK boards is the graphics on some. I'm not feeling the whole ghetto vibe. But they still have boards graphics that don't have any of that on it.
So there you have it my DGK review. Feel free to ask me any questions about it.
