Info On V2 Broken Phoenix

[JoshNunez]

I had been hearing about the newer generation phoenix decks and how two of them had been broken. So I wanted to figure out where they broke and why. I wanted to clear the uncertainty.

So instead of posting a thread to ask where they broke, I asked the man himself, Tom Floyd.

He told me in this message over Facebook:

"We had a small run of 20 decks that our machinist cut wrong at the rear brake area and he welded a plate in and we heat treated that. Two of those plates have broken and we warrantied both decks no questions asked. None of the V2 decks have ever broken at the headtube."

So if you didn't understand what he said, the newer decks broke by the back of the deck, not the headtube.

Just even more proof that Phoenix is one of the best decks out.

[Hogan]

ya your welcome^^ and thats what i was thinking when my brake just fell off but its cool i got a new one and tom was chill about it

 

[Justin Vogelsberger]

i want a phoenix soo bad but the round bottom is what scares me i dont wanna slip out of feebles

 

[Eli G-unit]

^^ they made it like that so its easier for grinding

 

[Justin Vogelsberger]

i know but my friend says he read that it makes it easier to slip out of grinds

 

[JoshNunez]

not really, I have one and it grinds fine. Unless what you are grinding is waxed, then you will slip out really easy.

 

[Justin Vogelsberger]

ohh idk its between a phoenix or a tsi

 

[Eli G-unit]

have a ride on both and see which one you feel is best

 

[Hogan]

phoenix for sure they feel more solid and the bottom grinds prefect you dont slip out

 

[mattttyler]

phoenix ftw you just gotta stay balanced i hit rails like 7 feet long and it doesnt wash out from under me its soooo good for grinding i <3 my phoenix

 

[Riley Hughes]

yeah dude, if you balance right on the phoenix you won't slip out.

Also some more legit info.

I asked Tom about the warranty.

Here is what he said.

"Our warranty is full replacement if it breaks in 90 days and $100 on standard decks if it breaks in 6 months."

And also...

"you always get the latest deck we make. If you had a standard headset deck then you would still get the same type of deck. I will let people upgrade to Integrated for an extra $40....so $140"
