Funboxskate.com anybody with experience on decks?

I was almost sold on a Moose brand board till I found 2 separate reviews of guys posting them with the nose broken off… forget that! So now I found what seems like the perfect deck, 41.5, big double drop https://funboxskate.com/product/ldp/
Im 6’4" 223lbs, any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
I also saw some at Ehlers’s Skate Shred, but that 2" drop with drop though on the funbox site looks so cool and I can’t find that combo anywhere else!

I am going to do a full TB build with his new off road tyres and slim battery and want to go low as possible on first ebuild.
Thanks Y’all!

… or you can wait a month until torqueboards releases their new deck which is a drop deck with an integrated cavity for the battery and then you can run low low and not have to worry about scraping most likely…itll be a hundred percent torqboard board through and through

Is this a real thing??

I’m rocking a suzie slide though, awesome. But too short for you at 6’4". The deck you linked is 8ply whick is a bit thin for big dudes. You might end up reinforcing any deck with fiberglass/cf anyway, which should open up options?

That funbox deck is only 8 ply maple. It’s probably better suited for 150 lbs or less analog.

I’d shoot for 9 ply absolute minimum… Especially being 40+". Personally I’d only settle for 10-11+ ply being 200+ myself. If less, than bamboo plys + FG or CF layers or just FG/CF layers.

I’ve had a tail snap off a 13 ply maple topmount no drop deck/no cutouts… That’s what you get with esk8 minus composite reinforcing.

Skateshred is solid. One of my first diy used a skateshred drop deck. Made cutouts to help with wheel bite and it still holds
Up great. Im 210 lbs btw

My moose deck just broke, so I just ordered one of these decks as it seemed like the next best option for the price.

I will test it out and let you know how it is!

I have had their hazel board for the last two years as a normal push board. Great concave, slight flex, and has taken a whole lot of abuse but it is still going strong.
