uggghhhh..... ok. so. tsi was started in 2008 when the very first decks where produced.
those broke. so they put a lil reinforcement on it. some broke. then at the beginning of 2009 the reinforced tsis where produced. and riden hard. dmazz broke his either right before 2010 or at the beginning of 2010. so the only tsi so far that has broken lasted about 11 months to a year.
phoenix started after cooter con 9 (or eight whatever one was at the end of 2009 they got weird names for cc
).
first decks broke. then they produced better ones about 2 or 3 months after the new year (2010.)
at about the end of 2010 an aussie rider broke a red phoenix (witch im sure youve all seen.) so phoenix lasted about 8-9 months.
i know your gonna say "YOU CANT PROVE THAT! YOUR BIASED CAUSE YOUR ON THE TEAM!"
truth is i really like phoenix, i love the bars wheels and for the most part the deck.
(fork is a rip off though)
and when people go blasting out opinions that phoenix is stronger i like to call them out and see what proof THEY have. witch no one ever gives me a straight answer they all just say ITS BETTER!
im not here to say witch is better cause that comes down to personal preference.
but what iam here to say is that tsi's have lasted longer.
thats all i have to say feel free to bash and criticize me
edit: i meant to say freestyler lasted longer. cause thats what dmazz rode and broke
