Wow, this orbiter deck really has seen everything.

I was very close to selling off this build to a friend, but he ended up getting an ebike so after scrambling parts and stuff I figured it’s time to upgrade this since I have the Kushboard Pico already, which is a more precision and lighter board than this.

So one time I left the board on and the battery drained because the antispark was the old ones that dont automatically turn off….

So I thought of doing something very odd, taking the small DH stooge 3 links with Loaded hubs and plopping it on this deck.

Paired with a 10s2p P45B pack and a Xenith, I got to work.

I had to sand the previous holes and seal it with epoxy. The old enclosure gave up so I re printed a new one in PETG CF, and painted it too.

same goes for the deck. A sanding job on both faces and a new coat of paint.

This has the best truck size to deck ratio if you ask me. Both are proportionately sized and fits so well.

7 years old and counting, i give this board new life. Can this be counted as a submission for BOTY hmmmmm

How does the printed enclosure hold up?

Pretty well actually, i don’t ride aggressively so it has never hit a curb or bump, but no significant damage or splits so far.

All the iterations of this are great. The 3 links and the hub wheels look nice. You are motivating me to get back into building… I have so many damn parts lying around.

I’ve been on a on and off building spree, back in the 2018 period there would be a build every 6 months haha. Now i kinda have one of each type of board for my terrain, so builds are less. Tinkering with your brains and hands are good once in awhile.
