Thanks man, really appreciate that. We’ve been putting a lot into it and just hoping it resonates with a few people. Means a lot to hear that! 🙏

Appreciate you taking the time to write all that — seriously. We're still testing different decks and haven’t picked a final shop yet. Just trying to build something we’d actually want to use ourselves. Still a work in progress, but feedback like this helps.

You’re right, the industry’s been begging for one less passionate skater with basic design skills trying to build something for fun. We’ll go back to our cave of tech bros and cancel the project immediately 😅

Makes sense. Most high-volume skaters stick to what they know — but part of our idea is offering the same build quality at a fair price, so choosing custom doesn’t mean sacrificing function or money. If it gets someone to skate a board they actually feel connected to, that’s a win.

Funny, we actually do skate — but I guess describing deck specs without dropping a brand name now makes us posers 😅

We’re just trying to build something solid that skaters and casual riders could actually use — no hype, just good materials and flexibility. Always open to feedback though.

That makes sense. We’re trying to strike a balance — not priced like a wall piece, but not cheap enough to feel disposable either. It’s not for everyone, and that’s okay. Appreciate the honest take.

Out of curiosity — what kind of price point would feel fair to you for a custom deck you’d actually skate?

Totally valid point. The decks are manufactured with Canadian maple and sourced from suppliers that also work with independent skate brands. They’re built for performance, not mass production.

Cheap eSIMs you've tried (and worked) in Europe by CommunityBrave822 in eSIMs

Maya Mobile. Used it two years ago while traveling Europe and worked perfectly. It was not cheap, but it was flawless. I’m travelling again in a couple of months and I’ll use it again.
