Late to the party but I nominate @Mantas Behemoth XLR. I also want updates.

Wait was your semendeed completed in 2023? I follow your Need 4 Speed thread but I thought it was older than that…

Completed in 2023 indeed. Funny enough you were going to nominate it last year but it wasnt finished lol

Well then of course I need to renominate

Definitely an inspiration for where I started with my race boards

Thank you, thank you :partying_face::partying_face:

I’ll get the 3 nominations updated tomorrow.

In the meantime, I’m thinking it might be fun to get some skin in the game.

@Flyboy DMed to share a totally rad and unique prize.

This is just a community based volunteer prize pool.

I’ll add a prize to the prize pool also. Just something of $25 value I’m not using that maybe someone else would be stoked on.

Prize pool donators will be on the hook for mailing items to winners, but I can help coordinate. Low value and just for fun, unique shit is 100% welcome here. Antisink - hell yeah.

PM me with a pic of what you got if you want to participate in The prize pool. Any international winners will likely need to have a supporting international prize donator, so just keep that in mind. This is for fun, but things may not work out perfectly.

Top 3 to 5 will get to pick from the prize pool. I like prize pool selection because people end up choosing things they can use instead of receiving something that might sit on a shelf.

Lmk what you think.

Adding a note to rules about prize pool.

ANYONE can win SHITTY BOTY. In order to receive pick from the prize pool, you must be a forum regular. If you end up in the top 5 - you get bragging rights, but you don’t get a pick from the prize pool if you haven’t logged in and participated in the community regularly. Who decides? I’m chairman, but there is a secret cabal that is consulted.

My build of 2023 submission :

  • Keeps giving me random errors.
  • Gears are very noisy.
  • Free roll is terrible.
  • Absolutely sensorless little thing.
  • Very shitty little short board.

Thanks! I’ll post up a picture tonight - I liked seeing yours come together too, you gonna bring it to esk8con? (if you’re coming)

You’re forgetting that it is a constant money pit and always requires your attention

Yep I’m coming to esk8con and the loud zoomi boi will be coming too. It’s mega fun and dialed in right now. The only thing I might add is a foot strap up front
