Damn, you guys just got roasted
Thanks @MacKeeper28 for the nomination (and the help putting it together), I accept!
SO cool being in the running with all of these other sick boards, I’m genuinely surprised how well this thing turned out.
Somehow it hasn’t killed me yet, it’s the perfect overpowered daily ride.
Ahem *points at userna… *

You win this time Benjamin…
Probably why the “pictures only” thread gets so much action
It gets some use them mbs tires are nice but do not last. Torn between stretched kendas on hubbas or 8” novas on rockstar pro 2s.
I buy the harder compound version off aliexpress and they seem to last 2x as long at least. I hate to not support mbs but they wear too quick.
What do you think of the blue sun mate tires?
I nominate Mountain Man by @patrickcleary, absolutely insane for a first time build and the attention to detail is ridiculous. Mountain Man | A 4WD Go-Anywhere Mountainboard - #4 by patrickcleary
Thanks man! I so appreciate the kind words
Damn, beat me to it!
Man I was so stoked when I saw this. I’m not sure I compete with all the big boys, but can’t beat the Banana
I gladly accept
I have to nominate @AlexB 's Zelda because not only is it a clean Duality build, the grip tape design is over the top in the best way (ask him how it was done). Also it’s literally the board on the Duality trucks product page, which should say something as we’ve all been ooohing and aahing over those damn trucks all year
Haha thanks dude. Did I finish that in 2024? I honestly can’t even remember. I suppose I did!
Here’s my official acceptance post- thank you @lidocaineus!
[IMG_7049] [IMG_7046] [IMG_7050] [IMG_7047] This board has gone through enough changes that it’s officially not the original board anymore, so deserves its own new thread. Some of this board started life on Hercaleez but at this point the only remaining parts that carried over to this board are the Tomiboi enclosure and gear drives (for now). This board is based on a @tomiboi Deathtoll deck, 43" au-natural finish. Beautiful deck. He got the flex just right for my not-so-poasty weight. Some…
I know he already has Bog Roosh nominated, but I want to double nominate @Pecos for his blue koi build too. Such a cool little board.
So i saw the deal since unlimited went under on the hubs and snagged a pair and some extra sleeves, lets see what i can do with em.
