#5 - Eddie's deck

Deck number four was originally intended for Eddie but after I screwed it up I decided it would be better to start fresh with a new build. I'm glad I did, this deck is a big improvement over the last one.

It was a little too flexy when I first pulled it out of the press so I added a purpleheart stringer to stiffen it up a little bit. Post stringer it was just right and under Eddie's weight it'll be perfect.

Eddie gave me full control over the design and construction of the deck and he stayed in the dark throughout the process.

I gave it a couple of NOLA touches to set it apart.
