Well the parts don't look too bad aside from the horrible graphics and dumb shock tape or whatever.
Do the new ones still have the crappy small headtube?

i think they look alot better, about time they went integrated. There deck designs are just not practical to me though. I dont understand why the reg nitro isnt integrated though...

Is anybody else annoyed by the fact that you have to watch 20 minutes of video to see all the products? Like what the fuck ever happened to just having pictures of shit ? I have things to do today that don't include watching people talk about scooter parts.

I dont trust some of the parts, and the parts i do trust i hate riding... but i would like to test out a nitro complete, the extreme isnt a choice of mine, and i thought they were supposed to come with some pegs or something...hmm. I do believe the did solve one major problem for beginners by replacing the headset. That was good move teaming up with FSA

Also, after watching the videos, I wouldn't mind giving the new decks a try. Looks like they've really addressed the issues that a lot of people were having with the old decks, namely the weight and the squared bottoms that were terrible for grinds.

I wasn't saying it was going to be better than any other deck for grinds, just better than the old Nitro decks. They had this weird plate thing jutting out of the bottom near where the downtube was welded on, and as a result if you grinded up near the front of the deck you'd pretty much just die. The new deck doesn't have that. And the grind rails that they added, apart from being superior for grinding than the way the old deck was anyways, make it so that you don't grind down the welds. Look at the Reventon, Flight, Envy, etc. It's a far better deck design, which is why almost all of the new decks have it.

Also, I really don't care which deck you ride.

I think they look pretty good...definitly improved over the old ones. I like what they did to lighten things up and the integrated is great. But those new bars on the Extreme bars are ugly as hell (imo). and those graphics have got to go..
Nice improvements in general though.

I liked em, the new nitros come with FSA headsets and shit. MGP is really stepping it up, IDC what you guys say, MGP is doing stuff for the sport.

I like it, I wanna try the new mgp deck the 4.5 but I hate the new extreme bars. It looks like a retarded version of Codie Donavan's bars, but he quit so hey had to change the design

As much as peple talk shit on MGP, we would be nowhere without them, the COmps/Demos/Events that they do, really help the sport to grow. Yes, they over do their graphics, but so does District and no one complains about them.

District stickers are easy to get off so you can ethier leave them or keep em on. On this they will probably be hard to get off hahahahaha but I like them
