The 'ol reliable hexagons. Fun fact, these are stenciled and cut from a Settlers of Catan tile.

Briman · March 20, 2019, 3:07am

Does it have to be griptape or can it be glass frit grip.

@anorak234 done lost it already.

Figured I’d make up for cheating the last competition by running a clean one this time

anorak234 · March 20, 2019, 5:06pm

It can be glass frit, sure. That sorta counts as grip tape anyways

It’s my grocery getter, the store lights charge the uv powder for a fun ride home.

Designed in Inventor, lasercut, laid over white carbon fiber vinyl, then applied to the deck.
A creative way to make the board look cool and also claim it as my own

Edit: Finally able to add more than one photo.

I’m not entering, wouldn’t be fair since I’m a mod, but I feel compelled to show people the work that @Sender does. Epic is the only way to describe it.

Just so everyone knows, Riptide is now sponsoring this competition! The winner will be getting a bit of swag in addition to the bushings already listed as the prize.

Briman · March 22, 2019, 1:59am

What if there is a tie? Cause currently there is a tie for first.

Also would like to say thank you to @RipTideSports for sponsoring this little competition. What you and Tracey do and the products you put out are a great asset to the skate scenes.

ninTHIENdo · March 22, 2019, 10:43pm

If there’s a tie, and I’m a part of the tie. I’ll go ahead and let the other person take the prize
