In Greek Mythology, Zeus took on many forms. This is his newest.
Since snapping my deck (with an ill-fitted enclosure), I have replaced it with a West Coast Standard Recoil and Fishbone enclosure. Loving the stiff 10-ply, deep concave and drop, and especially the 11 inch wide footpads for my size 12 feet.
In moving my components to this deck, I decided to upgrade to Boardnamics adjustable baseplates running 40 degrees in front and 30 degrees in the rear. May switch the front to 50 degrees, but this thing carves nice above 10mph and is rock stable.
I also replaced the blue 72a TB 110s with the new 76a 100mm Boa Constrictors. I may be the only person who hated my TB 110s, but I am absolutely loving these Boa wheels. Very soft, absorbent, and carve like glue.
