change in deck length

[joshbeattie]

so ive ridden a razor ultra pro since my first day riding, and its starting to feel to thin, and its awful for grinds, so im about to buy a v2i, but is the change in length noticeable? will it take long to get used to?
and to save making another thread, is the district integrated headset any good?

i went from an ultra pro to a v2i, it didnt take me long to get all my tricks back maybe a week. whips are a bit harder but its so much better once you get used to the v2i

 

[joshbeattie]

Alright, cheers man guess ill go ahead and buy one then(y)

I went from an ultra pro to a French ID.
That was a little tricky but you will get so much better.

Hell yeah its noticeable at first. When I switched from an ultra pro to V2i the length made it harder to pull up, but with the length, width, and concave specs, cruising felt soooo good. so i did that for a day just to get the feel. then tricks came easy

they have a new district that is the same length as a v2 (and ultra pro) but its flat bottom, much stronger, light, etc. I went from an ultra pro to v2 and took just a day or so to get used to but already is soo much better for grinds, etc. can still fingerwhip flat so thats a good sign. i should know what its called but dont heh sorry

 

[joshbeattie]

Aha, the v2i sounds sooo sick, can't wait to get out and ride it :')

You meant razor (you said district) and yes that is the el dorado

 

[A-Brad]

no they have a new district heh. i didnt know about an el dorado but at the philly comp the other day a couple people were riding them (Tommy Christiana, Wyatt Brown is getting one, etc.) its a black deck with monsters on the bottom

edit: its the DK-2 SCARY KIDS. now that I'm reading about them it might be the same length as the v2i. http://www.districtscoot.com/products/decks/dk1-v2.html is what i have though and works really well/ was easy to transition to from an ultra pro

I think the scary kids edition is shorter than the normal V2i's

Changes in decks always feel awkward at first, but anything other than a razor will eventually feel a million times better. I'd say get a v2i, the extra few inches will feel great once you get used to it. If you worried about the length, then the skullaz, dna, benj, and scary kids v2i's are shorter/same length as a razor

Got the v2i in the end, it not going on my scooter till Friday, but I'm sure it'll be fine :')

haha I went from a tank mgp not being able to double whip flat, to a v2i scary kids and got doubles flat consistantly 3rd try. You will love it dude.

when i switched to a v2i from a rup, i lost consistent double whips flat. but everything else feels much better with a v2i.
