i was going to get a mini logo but they only had it 8.25" ,got this instead,only £30 ,value for money in my book.

Yeah, the griptapemanship is probably the best thing about a newly bought deck. Whe I brought home my popwar and put the grip on it, I was almost crying with joy.

Why do you quote me if my post is right above yours?

ne hardware works, just depends if u sk8 risers or not, i think if u dont its 7/8 and if u do its 1inch but as for brand, they are just nuts and bolts, congrats on the new board. i think the only thing worse than waiting for a new board is having it and not being able to sk8 it!!! but congrats again

It looks good, but I can hardly see any concave on that thing. And I love new grip, even though it shreds shoes.

i took it out a minute ago,its raining here but i stuck it under my jacket and ran to this outdoor shelter next to a nearby school and messed around ,its really great.
tell me what you think :) i love my trucks. theyre just perfect ,no need to adjust the bolt.

EDIT: do you like the independant sticker on the tail? 4th pic. lol come free with my bolts.

Just go to your local skate shop and buy a crap load of stickers, and create a collage on your board :)
