20 Sep 2007 comment on Thisissoul custom Deshi Kelso II with gold

nothing against people who love deshi's. but i personally think they really need to come up with a better chassis mounting system. with deshi's, there are only two holes through which you can mount BOTH your soul plates AND the chassis (frames, bearings, wheels). this is, imo, insufficient considering 1) the bottom of the deshi boot is not solid, as opposed to a hardshell plastic boot that doesn't break, crack, or warp. 2) in addition, sometimes the holes drilled by the deshi factory are so poorly mis-alined, that you end up having to re-drill or shave the direction of the holes until your screws can reach it. i think this is horrible. 3) last but not least, to have only two mounting holes that holds all the weight of the heavy ass soul plates and chassis on a weak deshi underbottom, is only asking for your whole chassis to explode/fall off when you skate or do a massive topside. this is just my opinion. but deshi needs to make their bottoms into unbreakable, unarchable, unbridgable bottoms; and in addition, they need to make extra holes so that you can mount your sole plates and frames SEPERATELY (eg. usd classic thrones; as opposed to two-hole usd thrones -- which are pretty much two-holes like deshis; but unlike deshis the usd throne is a solid plastic boot that doesn't break like deshis.) this is my post for the day. Yay.
