#9 - demo deck

I've been getting a lot of interest in my decks just by walking around the public market with one under my arm. The two decks I ride myself, numbers one and three, get fair amount of attention but neither one is a goo representation of what I'm capable of. Number one is just a simple flat deck with some camber and three is starting to get pretty beat up from scraping curbs and the like.

So I built this, the dimensions are pretty close to that of my first build but it's not symmetrical, also it has a mild "W" concave and a mahogany stringer. I used three layers of bamboo veneer with one layer running bias to get the flex right for my weight.





Of the boards that I've built that are mine, this is by far my favorite one for just cruising.
