Check with myles for sure on the price (e-mail is buycassettewakeskates@gmail.com), but I think they're going to be right around 100.00 each with free shipping in the US, which I think is a really good price, especially since you can end up spending quite a bit more on some of the cassette flats on ebay. And as for payments, typically he'll send you a payment request via paypal.

texasT. There really aren't many pics of the flats out there because they were never sold. So far I only have the 42, but I'll be completing my 06 flat deck collection through myles in a couple of weeks. Here's a pic of my 42. The detail is kind of washed out in that pic. And here's a pic of the 41 (the yellow deck) that thomas had posted on the cassette blog years back. The only board I haven't seen is the 43. But in my opinion the quality of the graphic in person is basically what you get in the sample images. But I will see if I can get some board images from myles at some point. And if nothing else, I will post pics of my decks when I get them.

They're flat decks, so they don't have any concave on them.

Does anyone know if he's ever going to get the concaves? Personally, I'd be the first to jump on the 42" Concave with the bird on it. It may actually be my favorite wakeskate graphic i've seen yet. I wouldn't put it past myself to buy two and hang one on the wall.

second one from the right

thats exciting news but i also would like to see some concaves.......

I don't think you're going to see any concaves, or not in good numbers. all of the boards myles is selling are deadstock boards that never made it out to shops, including the flat decks. To my knowledge, very few (if any) true 06 concaves were produced, so I think myles would probably have to front the money to get new boards made, and I don't think that's happening any time soon.

Slapdown, I'm glad you clicked on one of christian's links! That profile had some bad ass shots, including the pigeon and c-logo image I used as the sample image for the article. He did some really nice work and like you guys, I wish those concaves were produced, or at least with those graphics on them. A few years ago the compound had a 41 and 42" concave, but hey had the flat deck graphics on them.

here's another image of the 06 concaves, and the 41 has a sign language thing going on with it.
