TSI vs. Phoenix

[Dean Bost]

phoenix.... ive ridden both tsi is awkard but we are all different and i just like the phoenix a lot more and josh only broke the prototype and he shreds and had it for like 4 months and hasnt broken it or cracked it

I own a phoenix and my brother owns a TSI. So i know the differences. I'd go with phoenix not to be a whore just cuz i own one, its just a really clean, and dialed deck. it can tailwhip easily not like a tsi, its strong, an i prefer the headtube angle. Makes me more comfortable with certain tricks. sure its only .5* less steeper that a TSI but it makes a huge difference. i also dont like really long deck like the TSI cuz im kinda small, so i got the phoenix. oh yeah and the phoenix brake system is so easy. i got the bolt through the brake and spring with my bare hands. Its pricey, but i got mine for xmas so you kinda have to think a little. id get it

[JakeSaunders]

well it all depends on your style if you do ledge tricks go with the tsi casue it doesnt pop off the coaping on hubbas but if you do lots of tailwhips and scooterflips go with the phoenix cause its lighter

i have ridden both
i broke my tsi
and u know i think all this deck shit is bs
stick with a normal promodle
its the cheepest and it last long if u reinforce it right
i rode my tsi for 3 months
my currnt pro has lasted me 2 and a half and its still going strong
but it cost me a 3rd of what a tsi did
do the math

Its really all personal preference... i love the pheonix decks but the TSI deck is exactly what im looking for in a deck.

Both are strong but tsi's have a better grinding surface I believe. The rounded edges of the phoenix make some grinds tricky.

why is everyone complaining about the phoenix! It is perfect! I can do handrails no problem and it is basically indestructible.

TSI decks are better for feebles and smiths and Phoenix is definetly stonger and cleaner looking...if you really pay attention to tsi you will notice they aren't even one peice lol

 

[kelly russell]

phoenix by far
