Product Description : Great Condition ! This board's fatal flaw is that the rear-most truck mounting holes on the rear truck are past the curve for the kick tail. Hence, there is a significant gap between the board and rear-most 1/2" of the truck baseplate, leaving the truck's piviot point unsupported. The same problem, though to a lesser extent, is visable at the front-most portion of the front truck. Using soft 1/2" riser pads helps with the gap, but it is still not accetable.Bottom line -- the flawed truck mounting position makes this a no-buy. A better use of your money would be to pick-up a modern pool deck by Deckcrafters, PoolKing or Powell.Specs -- Could not find these anywhere so here they are.Wheel base is 16". This should be around 14 3/4", which would solve the problem described above.Nose extends 6 1/2" from forward truck bolts. The kick is pronounced.Tail extends 6 5/8" from rear most truck bolts. So standard kick.The overall shape narrows to the tail. Width around front trucks is 10". Width at rear most truck bolts is 9 1/4". Width 2" forward from end of tail is 8 1/4".Concave for the front foot is 1/2" deep.Tail concave is 1/16" deep.Board is made in China of Canadian maple. Seems durable, but is a bit on the heavy side. This deck is beautiful, I deliberately waited for this to come before getting out of bed. Looks awesome and is super wide but maintains a proportional nose/tail size. This is literally an oversized street deck.(An hour later...)Just got back from my first cruise, I'm in love with it. Goess perfect with my 10 inch longboard trucks. <3if data-blogger-escaped-30="30" data-blogger-escaped-appealing="appealing" data-blogger-escaped-bucks="bucks" data-blogger-escaped-div="div" data-blogger-escaped-hahaha="hahaha" data-blogger-escaped-it="it" data-blogger-escaped-its="its" data-blogger-escaped-love="love" data-blogger-escaped-think="think" data-blogger-escaped-well="well" data-blogger-escaped-will="will" data-blogger-escaped-worth="worth" data-blogger-escaped-you="you">
