you say youve been riding elements, but they suck. flip, blind, world, and all those suck too. youve never had a good board.

try something from deluxe (real, krooked, anti hero), DNA (habitat, AWS), tum yeto (foundation, toy machine, pig), or kayo (dgk, expedition, organika)

Elements do suck, and follow spenser's suggestions.

i didnt say you said "ive been riding elements, but they suck"

i said you said "ive been riding elements," and then i said they suck.

if youve only ridden elements and those other boards that you thought sucked, you have nothing to compare them to, so you dont really know how good they are.

Agreed. Elements are awful decks, how would you know if they are any good, if you've never owned any other type?

the decks you said your friends had are about the same as element, id say a little worse. and.. i guess zero is better, but theyre still not so good.


look at my first post with all those decks i listed. try one of those.

I think you should get an Alien Workshop. Elements do suck though.

I had an element once. it was okay, they're not as bad as every1 says they are but they sure are not as good as AWS, DGK, Zoo York, Girl, And i rode a chocolate this weekend it was awesome

don't get offensive if people tell you your board is bad because you're still a good skater. The reason you like your element so much is because your so used to the shape. If you want something along the lines get a habitat, they have quite some concave but they have more pop and last better. Just skate it for a couple weeks and you'll grow into it.
