From Addict

I rode my deck perfectly fine i don't have anything against addict i just think they should make it a little bit thicker by the axle area.
I don't ride consistent flyout nor am i sketchy (to my knowledge), i also didn't use the axle it came with i used a nut and bolt and it still cracked in the back.
It's alright though my friend is cutting it to about 19.3 long so it get's rid of the crack and it'll be harder to banana.
 
I havent had one problem with my deck. I love it and i think its prime as fuck and solid. Yeah they should have made the back thicker but if you know what your doing and your not a dumbfuck nothing should happen. To many haters against Addict!

Addict will get better, think of the first District decks that came out and think of them now, design hasnt changed a huge amount but they're 1000 times better than the v1's just give them some time to figure everything out.

ggod point, hope they change that stupid brake!!! i'd consider buying one if they did.

I shred and havent had a problem with the deck at all, maybe its cause i dont land sloppy and do flippy wippy tricks to fly out or a sketch lang on a quarter.

At least they were man enough to come out & say it was a default. Unlike other company's who just hide when their parts break.

Most of us ride Pegs, so we had the chance to see what's up about the back axel. because pegs were acting like an external spacer.. so sorry about that.

First time we saw that crack was during that California trip last summ,er it was on Matt's deck and it happened after 3 month and half of shredding. He did wallenberg after and no problem.

Then yeah travis is right, and people who complain about the banana effect.. there's tons of reason. As billy said before. But also when you're used to ride a 81 angle with a strong deck (phoenix, mad, district, proto..) and switch to an Addict in 83 which is pree soft then yeah.. you got to get used to it.
