Why can't they just get them shipped from America? No shops in Aus sell TSI stuff so I've always just ordered from America and got them shipped

costs a quite a bit o reckon, and since the decks are quite pricey already that'd end up as quite a lot haha

Idunno man but they need to get their stuff in more shops world wide I reckon haha, people on here have a pretty high demand for their parts

Shipping to Aus is like 50 bucks, my Sledge cost me 300 in total so it's not cheap but it's worth it for a TSI. I think the reason they aren't sold in a heap of shops worldwide is because there isn't a huge demand in a lot of these countries for them, in Australia hardly anyone even knows who TSI are and most kids only like Envy and Apex. We see riders on here who want them but that's only a small percentage overall. I remember Scooter Hut was selling them for a while but ended up discounting them heaps so I'm guessing they weren't too popular.

The amount times i get asked what deck i ride is insane, they never seem to know the brand. There's only a small bunch of riders (including me) that i've seen with TSI's in Sydney. I really wish a shop would stock them so we wouldn't have to pay so much, lucky i managed to get my Thresh when Scooter Hut was stocking them.

Anyway, should i get the long or short pandemonium or a sledge? Tsi grinds so smooth but my friends addict feels a lot better to ride. How much harder are whips with a 22" compared to 20", is it worth the extra foot space?

Same here in Perth haha pretty sure me and 3 of my mates are the only ones who have gotten TSI's imported here, but most of us have had more than one and sold our old ones so there's probably only 6 in this state in total and id be the only one who has a Sledge. So many kids have asked if it's a Fasen or a Addict or just think it's a random K-mart brand.

I'd go the Sledge personally but that's just preference.
you'll definitely notice a change with whips jumping from a 20" to a 22", I'd rather have the 22" personally but again it's personal preference.

22 is completely different than 20. I went from an ethic lindworm to a 22 thresh and the change was weeeiiiirrrdddd.
But don't let that scare you away from a long deck, you'll get use to it eventually.

Imo get a long pandemonium, sledges are sooooo dope, but seeing how you're not used to the heavyweight design of tsi's, it'll be easier for you to adapt to.

I really don't like the small kink in the middle of the bars like apex bars have, idk how to call it. Would rather have just t-bars or with a big kink, something like flavor bars have, don't know if anybody gets what I'm saying haha

Makes me wonder why people buy Bols as that kink makes them hideous
