This company doesn't have my respect. All their parts are rip off designs, with slight tweaks here and there to make it look different. Like the deck is a Lucky deck, just without the curves on the outside walls and they took the detachable downtube/headtube design from the new Micro decks. Fork is a French ID rip off. And $6.00 a sheet of griptape?!?!?! You can get a sheet from any skateshop for $5 and some change, and you don't have to pay shipping on top of it. And the fact they deny claim to stealing designs because "they have been tested for a year." Poor ass excuse in my opinion. Because I had heard that the owner or a rider of their purchased a bundle of products, and all of a sudden this company pops up with similair designs.
I hate these types of companies, although kind of rare nowadays, that are in it for the money and not for the growth of the sport, or to support it's riders.
EDIT:
And to add insult to injury. The fact that they said they were shooting a "Team Scooter Zone Promo" and then released the video as a Team ProRide Promo video. Scooter Zone and ProRide have NOTHING to do with eachother. It was a shady trick by ProRide. Dick move.
