The Pusher V2.0

This is the new version of the pusher. Adam Colton and myself have been working on this new version for a few months now. It has been under wraps as we kept making changes and the tried to get it ready for Adam, Paul and Aaron trip to skate Morocco. More on that in a minute. The new pusher is going to be getting a couple more minor tweeks. When it is all done there will be two versions the standard all wood and the lighter road dampening version (you’ll have to wait on that one a bit keeping it under wraps till more testing can be done). Adam is going to be skating on something in between. So here are the pictures of the one Adam is using to skate across Morocco.

 

 

So now the stats. Length 40″, Width 9″, drop 1.75″ Wheelbase 31″   I will post up the all wood version in a couple days. May be will will have the hitch and trailer hooked up for some riding also.

Holesom

This a project I have been working on with my friend David for almost a year and a half. David called me with an idea to make a new board and wanted my help. He wanted to make a board out of bamboo and hemp and put a bunch of holes in it. Sounded like a fun challenge to me. I made the first one and it was cool, shipped it to David and he put holes in it made it look cool and rode awesome. Well to make a long story short I made a few prototypes and got the layup dialed in then put it in Davids hands to get it made in larger volumes than I can do. That lead to more changes and improvements. This is what came out of all the time and work.

Watch for this board it is awesome. Ready for sale April 20th.
