but a close friend of mine has a district v2i, if your gonna go district go v2i not v2

does the district deck feel similar to the french id? cuz some people say it feels similar while others say the french id feels different from any other deck.

District just because I don't know anything about French ID's

if u do overcrooks or stuff like that u will bend the front of the french id deck cuz its not boxed off like a district

i had that problem too man. the brake isnt as bad as everyone says, it was a little noisy to i rigged up a rubber shim like the phonix vibration washer, and its working good, Phoenix brake will work but it will look ugly becouse the brake space is so big

i would go with the district. I've heard that both of these decks can take a beating and they're both pretty light. but the frenchid just seems a little too overworked. and the district is less expensive and in my opinion looks better.

 

[tylerbillman]

District is a great all around deck. Grinds nice, fairly strong for smaller and mid-sized riders, whips nice and is pretty balanced.

do hang-5's feel good on districts? i put my toes on the bottom of the headtube and it seems like it would feel weird.
