they're good while they last, but they suck after a couple months or so.

Nice review. Not trying to come off as an asshole, but it's spelled "Devine" no "Devon". Other than that, everything you stated was pretty true.

I really love the graphics, and they have the most amazing team ever.

Default Chocolate

I like the chocolate decks.
Better than other i tried, like Antiz and Flip
Chocolate's have more pop and arent too small

Yeah, I had a Devine Calloway, the Shotgun one. It was nice. It had fairly decent concave. It had great pop. Then, a week later. I get mad and throw it down and it snaps in half. Has that ever happened to any of you? I mean, it was a good board, but I don't think I am going to buy another..

they do break easy but they're not made for big drops or abuse. so don't ride chocolate if u skate stairs.

Default Fuckin' chocolate

yep. I'm pissed. had a chocolate deck for one week, one lousy week, do a frontside flip on flat, land even near the tail, motherfucker snaps off. Third time this has happened, too. I thought it was just a fluke the first two times, but no, now I'm done. Chocolate boards are not durable if you're over 165 lbs. and enjoy flipping tricks over a foot in height. Avoid.

Thumbs up yup.

good review dude, i agreed with everything. i usually ride Plan B's most of the time, but i just decided to try out a Chocolate for christmas...since then, it's been pretty stable...my kickflips up to bigspins and tre-flips are clean...but yeah the board does wear out pretty quickly... i haven't done a lot of board or lipslides that much, and the pic is about halfway gone. in my opinion, Chocolate boards seem like they're built for flatland and gaps, but not so much rails and stairs....good review man. oh i have the Kenny Anderson's Menswear deck :]
