nooo they didn't say it was just for flow at all. if you actually went on inside scooters blog you would've been able to read the actual interview. they are gonna make different parts designed for different parts of riding. they're gonna make parts for street, park, tech, and flatland. they just said that its not for rider who land really sketchy and it said people shouldn't do flyouts ALL THE TIME! it never said you couldn't do it at all. people need to read.

Still, clearly being that light, just looking at where the welds are etc, you can tell there was some strength sacrifice. There is much less metal to metal contact to be welded than most decks. Not putting addict down, their stuff looks legit, just saying.

it's awesome everything is light, but i hope it's still really strong. like the one steup they have pictured on their site is only 5 pounds! thats nuts, but if stan, matt, alex, etc. are riding the stuff i'm sure its pretty damn good.

when stan airs like 5 feet out of quarters in his vids and drops his scooter, i dont think that deck will take too much of that unless it is that strong

well cause most people are complaning about it saying its not for sketchy riders and wat not just dont buy it its simple but if they say its jusat for flow riders and wat not i mean mckeen is on the team and he mostly does street tech stuff and if it works for him it should still be good no matter wat style you ride

well it looks amazing, but they stated its specifically not for riders who r sketchy or do flyout tricks....umm that seems like they sacrificed a bit of strength for the weight. Idk about all of you guys, but I like flyouts and when learning a new trick I'm always sketchy. I would rather have a heavier deck than a deck you have to land perfect on not to break

haha, they didn't sacrificed any strength. It's some of the strongest stuff out there and also the lightest!

Sounds lik some bike parts.
I think 4kg set up is light enough!
I rode a 2.7kg set up and wasn't for me, didn't have enough momentuim to keep it nicely controlled.

i wanna wait until they release their products so i can see how easily their deck will break, kuz i really want it. i hardly ride flow, nor do i do flyout or drops too often, but i still do it sometimes and i dont wanna be cautious about breaking a deck. thats the worst constant feeling; when you think your deck is gonna break.

This all sounds amazing. Especially for people who don't do sketch-balls flyout and ride mostly Tranny.

Im just bringing this out there, but flow riders arent perfect? Even if your messing with a new transition, you can accidentally land in the wrong spot or toss your scoot. In my opinion decks and all other scooter parts should be for all types of riding. :\ Otherwise you get riders who wont hit spots because theyre scooter cant take it. Just sayin'.
