i wont hate.. sure i do not like the corporate mumbo jumbo but now that i think on it, someone has to do the corporate shit so eh... second off, the reason i dont hate is cause i skate a blind.. it works from me and it feels more stable to me so i skate it.

skating is getting way outta hand...
everyone is on the edge of there seat for the next fight..
i respect and really like the older skaters. they skated at a time when skating was all fun. not this shit we see here

not to hate dude but i realize something, its just a ****ing company supplying skate shit. there are other companies that do the same. the only differance between us and the companies is that we skate for fun, they dont skate for money. there will always be companies. taht blank u want so bad is made by one.. and u no what? one day it will be just like dwindle. yup thats right. u no why? cuz they want money. they dont care about skaters.. they care about money. nothing else. sure they all start with good in em but eventually, well... we all no what happens..

i no i have made some opinions (yes opinions are ment to be swayed) taht go against a product like nike (still hate em) but still. i wont complain anymore. if it works, it works. i dont care just so long as your having fun skating. well LET THE FLAIRING BEGIN!

well, that article is from 2004

[BlindSkater]

then if tahts made in 2004, did anyone else get this far...

Effective November 1, Dwindle Distribution will be lowering the wholesale pricing of all its brands to pass this production advantage on to skaters and retailers alike.

so um.. did the price of a deck used to be $70 US? cause i always thought it was 50-60 range...

:/

I'm just saying their boards are shit. I'd never skate one. Even if all the better distributers like tum-yeto, dna and deluxe, become even bigger and make their boards shittier, I'll skate what ever comes next. There will always be smaller companies, so I really couldn't care less.

well as i said, i dont mean to sound arrogant, but all i say is skate what u feel good on, not what seems to be a non-conformist company. if you want a element, get one, if u want a blank, get one. really the only way a true skater gets a great board is through trial and error. u feel good on a blank, i feel good on a dwindle piece of shit.

Couldnt have put it better myself. Everyone hates on dwindle and element but a deck is a deck. Its not even like the decks are being made out of crap wood. They still use Canadian maple and they are being mare to precision every time so whats so shit about them.
