I have had an addict before (Matt Mckeen) and i liked it a lot, pretty much everything about it. i went through that and moved onto an UrbanArtt V1 which i took off straight away and now currently running a District V2i deck (green). I really want to get a TSI Threshold V2 hep greg (white) although not 100% sure on the choice. I have a couple of friends who have the deck and they have taken it off for different reasons. Some say it is too big/bulky and doesn't flex enough (comparing to an addict which he put back on) and some say that it isn't very nice feeling 'weight' wise when comparing to a district or an addict. I really liked my addict and want a TSI but i don't want to buy and then find it not to be good, like i did with my UrbanArtt which i got rid of in almost the first day of riding. I want the TSI because it locks in well, i won't break it for ages, fantastic for nose blunts and is a boxed deck. Post your thoughts on what i should do cause i don't want to waste any money. Thanks.
TSI Threshold V2 or Addict.

Really depends on your riding style, thresholds feel surprisingly light, really well balanced and super sturdy (not flexy feeling like addicts). They do grind better than any other deck, locking in perfectly and never sticking.
the only downside to threshes is the extra effort you have to put into tricks such as double whips, although this isnt really a problem unless you do whippy bri tricks.
The only way i can see this deck being bad for you is if you like jumping big stair sets, as the thresh unlike addicts dont flex therefore making you feel more shock when you land.
I personally way prefer my thresh to my old addict, district, or any other deck ive ridden and would recommend them to anyone who does a lot of grinds.

The thresh is the best deck ever made, if someone is telling you its heavy its because they are a little pussy. Coming from a 4.65 reventon the thresh feels so light and whips really well, feels a lot more controlled compared to how an addict whips, plus grinds are too good on the thresh

Threshold is an all around good deck. Great for everything you can imagine doing on a scooter.
