The brake design is quite unique and the width seems perfect(4.3 inches)!
The only thing I would change is the headtube angle to 81.5 but thats just
me. Overall its a good design. Keep up the great work Balthazar.

Honestly you ignorant idiots cannot think. There was a French ID before
there was an Addict, remeber that. Stop saying Addict is better because
either of the decks have been released to the public so you couldn't say
which is better. Yes it looks like a great deck and I, myself would ride it
but no need to put down the ORIGINAL company.

I don't get why you people are hating on FID, but when addict or district posts some news ur like OMFGZ LIKE I NEED TO FIND OUT ITS SOOO COOOLLLL EVEN THOUGH I WONT GET ONE ILL SAY FID IS GAY BECAUSE THATS WHAT EVERY1 IS DOING OMGZZZ!!!! get over urselves and hmmm, maybe support FID? its a company that actually cares about the riders in the sport, not just money like razor.

I agree. Addict designers were from FID. There is no need to bash them on addict when everyone knows that the designers left FID for Addict. That's just so fucked up. Work in progress, this deck i still being tested. And you people bitch about it being DIRTY?! On this website, people often forget that without companies like FID, the sport would not be growing as much as it is internationally. Think before you speak, and people wont criticize your uneducated responses.

although scooters dont have "pop'' its a legit looking deck. i want one

edit: was that an addict in the link???? i remember see that video a while ago. that deff didnt look like the scooter you posted.

no that was the one piece frid prototype. when people left frid, they took a lot of ideas with them to addict. for instance addict bars were supposed to be frid tree bars. the addict deck is similar to the one piece frid prototype. so stop hating. everyone on here thinks they are cool because addict is some awesome new company where everyone is on drugs!!! :D soo stupid.

headtube should be 81 ish i think. i ve always thought that since decks can be sold in different widths why not also sell them with different headtube angles. i would die for a good 1 piece with pro angle

J dub probably explained it better. Thank you.
Well the problem with scootering is that there's no "fuse" part and that's what i wanted to do when I told the engineer David Desnoës who designed the folding mech part. It was not a problem to drill one more hole on the folding so you could think it was a foldable scooter, but at the begining, it wasn't supposed to be a 'folding mechanism'. Moreover, stiffness provides you less "pop". I don't know why but i felt like jumping lower with the pro deck i tested which was one piece deck, it felt too rigid . Maybe it was because the deck was a bit heavier...

that was the Inside scooter post about the pro deck].
I hope this scooter will be good, but i have good expectations on this one!

if anyone watched the video, do you also think it looks REALLY simmular to the addict deck

ya frid has some sick forks but addict dosent so when addict really starts relesing parts we can say who is "better" but what dose it matter frid is still evolving and still trying to relese the best parts.
