I’ve got two long decks coming that I’m extremely excited about. One is an MTB deck that I’ve been riding and refining. It’s double-concaved with a 35/25 degree nose/tail angle. The construction is bamboo/carbon-fiber/fiberglass.
I’m also working on a long drop-deck. The drop will be 1 3/4" and there will be an option to cut holes for drop mounted-trucks. It will also be double-concaved and the construction will be bamboo/carbon-fiber/fiberglass as well. I’m working on the mold for this one right now. I’m hoping to test it out with a BN 270 set-up.
You should see the long enclosure. They have really nice flex and strength. They seal up really nicely too. I ride through water all of the time and I haven’t had any get in.
Mine are pretty reasonably priced. When you add one to your deck on my site, half of the cost is the installation. If you just want a long double-stack with hardware it only costs about $80.
i was test fitting everything to everything last night, seeing what works so i can get more of em. the short one fits the hosoi hammerhead pretty much perfect. iirc id just have to move one set of mounting holes a centimetre or so, dealers choice.
as for water sealing, this one is pretty good, with a wide gasket on the deck it should be good to get wet.
yeah im messing with the hosoi right now and your short enclosure is a fuckin PERFECT fit for the deck. but the no matter how i line it up it just baaaaaarely blocks 2 mounting holes. -_- im seriously considering making a cutout and just using it. easier and quicker than plugging holes. eh i gotta plug holes anyways, fuck it. for real though, it looks like they were made for eachother.
@EreTroN 100%. I’m happy to make blanks of different thicknesses. I’ll also do different levels of finish. For instance, you may want me to do fiberglass on the bottom but leave the top naked so that you can skin it with graphics. I’ll do custom colors as well.
