Personally I did not like the oak. I bought an oak and then sold it after riding it and went back to my 4-trac.

StandUp, ya that was weird, i really liked your board tho, i hope it doesnt break, that thing is a classic

StandUp, the Tech 42s and really bad delamming problems. I would recommend sanding the board down and then resealing it. There are thousands of topics on this forum about resealing a board Smile

yea you need to get some kind of sealer and coat it like 3 times.
those marks im pretty sue is the graphis bulging out, and not the wood, but if you keep riding like that it will get worse.
Shows how well made them liquid forces are Smash

XdrummerX my oak did the same thing as that liquid force with the graphics.

mine cracked to the second day i had it. i was told to put candle wax in the extra fin holes to prevent the plys from delaming

Do you still recommend the skates though?
