Spot on

Don't you love the people who get the exact measurements of a stock board so they can pay $50 more to get a QCD version

get a custom if you cant find exactly what your looking for in a stock board. ive been through 5 boards in less than a year trying out different shapes and cores and still cant find a stocker i like. its a shame, cause i can get boards at almost cost price.

next ones going to be a custom.

There are so many board brands on the market now i cant believe there are so many people getting customs.....

I reckon if you know the dims. you want chances are there will be a stocky you are able to get with those dims.

Colours are really the only reason to get a custom and really if the colour of the logo is the most important thing to you maybe you should get a REDBACK
