Just finished up this deck for Cory (Sorry for the wait, its on its way now + extras) :) It started life as a sick bright red blosom. (Bottom ply). The wood used for the ply has a lot of figure and awkward grain patterns. you might be able to tell from the first picture). Anyway the reason i used this deck is because when that paint wears it will make a sick pattern where the paint stays in the grain lines. Its not the best picture, but the paint is metallic British racing green. Quintessentially British. Then the '4 way' graphic is put on top. So you get a graphic that wears to green, then wears to red. I want to set this up for myself!!! Grrrrr. I know you originally wanted to Fluro green on the bottom ply Cody, but i thought it would be sicker with a darker green, then there is a lot more contrast when the graphic wears, as essentially the graphic is very similar in colour to the fluro green. Deck makers know best ;) Hope you like!

I like having some time to make decks. My deck making timetable looks quite good for the time being. I got this pile of Hard knox decks drilled and shaped this morning. There's some tasty looking knox's in this batch and when they are done they are going to have to be one of the best 'bang for the buck' decks going. (If i say so myself).
Things are overcrowded in the fingerboard market right now....At least thats how i see it. So the only way to fight back is to offer product of quality for prices that make me sweat. Not good for me, but good for you. Also going to have some fluro painted ones in this batch, and the Ampersands collab Blosom graphic any day now. Don't' forget i still have some of those limited Ampersands decks on the store. For 11 pounds each you cant go wrong. Support and buy one before i double the price. Just set one of these badboys up. These things perform a treat. Look it too. At 11 GBP each beat that.
More in the way of quality at discount prices coming very soon in the form of Hard Knox. Drilled loads of those today so those will be up soon....Ill save the picture for tomorrow. Also shout out to my new fingerboarding pals in my village. Cain, Jack and jack2 :) This one off deck is on the store now. It is a crazy 'wildwood', then coated in fluro yellow paint, then the Eddie graphic on top of that. Wear on this will be amazing. One only. On the store now. Also on the store are blanks. These are on sale for the time being. Sorry for the terrible picture. If there was a colorway you wanted put it in the notes when you order.
Ampersands oldschools will be up on the store by the weekend! Finally got these sorted and ready for pocketing. They will be up on the store one day this week. Ill put a post up here when they are going up. Limited numbers on these and a good price too. Be sure to grab one.
Sorry for the bad pictures but i was in a rush. They are done anyways :) Look good eh? Two really cool Blosom setups that caught my eye on the forum. The first is OLi's with a homemade 'pizza shop' graphic. Looks really good i reckon. Oli's deck also made it as 'setup of the week' on the Unite forum. All your daily news going on in the fingerboard scene.
