was going for that nihm concept so I wear in a more natural groove, they have a small one now but these aren't easy to wear down. Probably pre-groove a small one into the next set I make now that I know exactly where my natural groove is. I find them surprisingly sick for backslides though, even when they were fresh, i think because the frame is so sunk, like the aragon2's/SL skates.

Or maybe it was 96, anyone? Thought some might appreciate these for nostalgic purposes. Got them a couple years ago off ebay with a custom job in mind but can't bring myself to taint them.

haha yeah couple dudes said that. Very expensive cutting board if so. A lot of cutting boards are actually made from UHMWPE combined with other crap, so it may well be a walmart cutting board. But its not. This stuff is virgin UHMWPE and can be ordered from any plastics or acrylics joint. Its a bit pricey(here in australia anyway), but if you order a nice big slab its more worth your while to make 2 or 3 sets, and is then cheaper then carbon plates. Where i got it it's available in green, black or white/natural, but i reckon you could die the natural if you wanted. Make sure its UHMWPE, they've tried to palm off the standard HMWPE but it aint the same ish.
