lllongneck, i rode with rich and chet today. The weight of the decks are good. I was just answering the guys question about if they are light decks.
I was definitely a fan of the decks. The 3 stage board had super snappy ollies and i was liking both the concave types i tried (smaller or larger flat spot). The decks rode really smooth. they spun really predictable and were solid while sliding the lip and the edges allowed room for error.
Rich and Chet were killing it on the decks. Those guys have so much pop.
The shop I work at will be carrying woodworks now. |

To me a woodworks are the most responsive durable and predictable wood boards out. They feel like a skateboard. I have been beating the crap out of mine and it is still going strong. I am so happy I started riding these, the best choice I have made about which skate to buy in a long long time. They slide damn good on any rail, I hit my rail dry all the time and it slides fine. It also has a very comfortable concave and is really poppy wake to wake. Also the board stays with you very well, w2w or in the flats, the board is right there by me. One of the things I love about these boards the most is how predictable they are. _________________

wakesk8kid, my skate of choice is a 2010 tnt 38. the woodworks skates or any wood concave is going to be pretty different. its really hard to compare because they are really different |

EJazzle, and from your videos I've seen you kill it on the TNT, can't wait to see some footage with you on the WW. How would u say the Woodworks compares to a New? particularly the Mogley, but any New really. |

Agreed, WW is amazing. I love the extra weight, the board stays under your feet so perfectly, never floats away or anything. You would think that since its heavy your stuff might not pop as high.... HA well let me tell you that is NOT the case, ive never popped higher stuff in my life! I like how my board is a bit wider too and it cannot ever see this thing ever breaking its so solid. |
