I want to know if any of the new ideas for improving decks work ie. element helium, almost resin 7/8, darkstar armour light.

Personally I had an habitat hemp ply and if anything i found it weaker but if you found any other ideas did or didnt work post here cause i want to know

the armorlight works. the helium is a scam, and the resin 7s do what they say they do, but are shit

Yeah, I have a hemp ply too and it doesn't really help. But I mean, seriously, what's a layer of cloth gonna do?

Black Label Powerbeams work.

I don't know about the rest of them, but the Element technology sounds like bullshit (maybe because all of what they do is bullshit).

The new AWS/Habitat X-band thing sounds kind of cool though...

it holds the board better after cracking. it actually helps alot.

um, no.
I know, that was a bit of a 'strong' opinion. but my resin almost broke really quick, and i liked the feel of my normal almost(no resin) deck better.

I think the resin 7s and work really good. at least for flatground. I'v been skating the same Almost resin 7 board for about 8 months. Its almost dead, but its still going.

i dont skate

how about popwar slick drops? do they really secrete oil to assist in sliding?
