the team section up and running really soon. Seriously!
Go
Skate! Day was a Blast!
Some of us who were lucky enough yesterday to get out of the office and
go skate yesterday. While us responsible guys were in the shop taking
care of the biz, the rest of the guys made it out to Skater's Point, Solvang
Skatepark, and then they finished off the day at the Wildo. Backdoor Boardshop
had a raffle up at the Solvang Skatepark and one lucky kid out of about
100 people at the park was able to snag one of our "Fish
Out Of Water" boards as the top prize. Definitely the highlight
of the raffle!
Revenge
is sweet...
If you haven't noticed already, we put Revenge trucks on all our longboards.
Why? Well, cause we really like them.
Conventional skate trucks were never meant to be used on longboards.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we know that Indys are great, blah, blah, blah but
they're meant for popsicle decks. I mean come on, would you put ketchup
on vanilla ice cream because you "bleed" ketchup and have a
big ass Heinz sticker on the back window of your Ford pickup truck? OK,
maybe our boy Ky who works out in the warehouse would do that but
we can pay him to do anything. So if you're going to buy a longboard,
why would you screw up the performance by riding regular trucks? The turning
radius with a conventional truck for a long wheelbase is ridiculous. Revenge
trucks take longboards to the next level and make turning so easy it feels
like you're surfing or snowboarding on land. I mean, come on, you can
turn a 48" board between two cars parked in parking stalls! Es
loco!
If you haven't noticed already, we've got alot of experience riding all
types of terrain and our riders can attest to the Revenge performance
and feel. But have we mentioned that Revenge trucks also eliminate
wheel bite? Revenge's patented locking system actually prevents you from
turning your board too much and biting your wheels on the board. This
means whether you're cruising to class or just going to check out the
surf, you can cruise with ease knowing that you're not going to stack.
So check it out. Take a look at other some of the other longboards
out there and you'll notice that they put wheel wells on all their
boards to try to prevent wheel bite. Funny thing is, those boards still
wheel bite even with the wheel wells. They know it, we know it, and you
know it. That's already something like reason #57 to use Revenge trucks.
So when you take look at all of our boards and notice there are no
wheel wells, what you gonna say? We don't need them suckas! We got Revenge!
