[edy boi]

that whole idea was thrown out...........

 

[Mr. Proto]

You guys have to remember that TDI is not A deck, it is a system and a method of compatibility just like the SCS and UBS. We are trying to standardize freestyle scooter manufacturing to ensure that in the future all companies parts will be compatible with one another allowing riders to perfectly customize every possible variation of their ride which is something that no one else has done.

As far our patents go, when they are awarded we will grant rights to whoever we feel is most dedicated to the progression of this industry to use these standards. If we are not awarded patents for these designs then you can consider the technology a donation to the sport.

damn dude thats pretty legit ^^^ i got 100% respect for proto now, no doubt in my mind ill be buying one of these decks

Okay one question. If drilling a hole for the brake in the back makes the deck week, then Why would any one drill a hole at the main stress point of the deck?? this is a contradiction, Im not hatin, but I have already thought of this, and if i took one of my decks and drilled a hole right there it would ruin the deck

this dude used the deck on the mega ramp bro i think he'll be fine

the mega ramp doesent have aa crap load of impact because there is a landing with tranny, not saying the scooter isnt strong, but the inpact is absorbed mostly by the tranny on the landing

 

[c.roman]

true but i think the most damage it would get even riding street is a little wiggle... which can be fixed

 

[parrish]

you THINK, but do not know

On the mega ramp subject, theres no way he landed every trick he tried, that thing had to have come down hard from 20 feet in the air several times. And he was with nitro circus, so we know that thing took the beating of a lifetime.

 

[parrish]

with you on that one haha

 

[michaelchavez]

proto shud totally re-invent the buff bar too cuz it seems like proto buffs hav gone extinct

 

[c.roman]

Dude it is a pretty mellow landing, depending on what trick you do, it can come down with ALOT of impact.

Does anyone notice how smart Andrew is?
He just reinvented the world most growing extreme sport.
He has had to have gone to Engineering school.

2 problems

1.in the video it looked as if the whole top of the deck was like in strips ? wich would create an akward feel

2. brake does seem to sit pretty high

besides this i can still see myself buying one it seems like a pretty clever idea. cant wait for them to be released !

He already said that the deck isnt going to be like that on top and the UBS lets you decide how high the brake sits from the wheel.
