... Seriously? Flat drop from a height, most likely with speed.... versus cruising into a gentle transition? You tell me which is more likely to snap your deck.

Sarcasm aside, I'll contribute. The razor pros I snapped before I moved onto the deck of champions broke on drops, but were worn out on the right side from learning to grind on sketchy ledges, so thats obviously the big fault. They snapped at the dropouts where the deck would be contacting the ledge in a grind and the deck is the thinest.

My TSI has lasted me a very long time and shows no signs of wear whilst grinding happily along those same sketchy ledges I cut my teeth (and razor pros) on. It is only now starting to crack after a year of heavy use and sketchy street landings. Its cracking at the welds that connect the headtube/neck to the deck on the bottom of the deck (most likely because I ride with my front foot pretty far forward).

Easiest way to break a deck:

1. Find any drop to flat thats at least 5 feet high.
2. Do exactly what you shouldn't do, and go at it very slow to maximize the impact.
3. Do a shit tailwhip or inward or something and land with your feet up near the headtube.
4. Make sure that when you land, you're leaning back enough to where you almost fall off the scooter, but manage to save it.

Every time I've broken my deck, it was when I was just chilling and not doing any tricks. I would just put a bit of weight on my bars and my deck would just fold lmao
