Pocket Pistol's B. "Chicken" Deck is all over the import industry's use of heat-transfer graphics to boards. Sure, he's a silk-screen traditionalist (and one of the best), but there's more to this than just gripin': heat breaks down epoxy and the boards get hot! Of course, PPS makes all of Christian Hosoi's boards and you never met a better OG Skate God. Click Chicken's graphic to leap over and check out the latest Hosoi boards, all silkscreened... |

Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: around 5-6 monthsWhat is your setup like?: Drop Speed 09' Deck
Bear Grizzly 852's
86a Durians
Bones Super Swiss
Red and Yellow (90a, 85a) Venom BarrelsTypical Session Discipline: Freeride, Light Downhill, CarparksHow much did you pay?: $250 AUD for the deckWhere did you purchase it?: hopkin.com.auWhat were the strengths of the deck.: Beast. can take any abuse you throw at it.
Pretty damn stable, up to around 85kph.
Light, perfect concave locks you in for slides and carving.
Perfec freeride board. still light enough to cruise on, and agile enough to carve on, yet perfect for taking it down massive hills and technical runs.
the drop thru mounting makes it very easy to footbreak and push.What were the weaknesses?: nothing really. could be a little bit lighter.
very tall people or people with big tucks might find the deck too small. could be a few inches longer.Similar decks you have ridden?: rayne hellcat, glyde drop thru, any other drop thru board.Would you recommend it?:
Yes

Longboard Review How long have you ridden the board: 4-6 monthsWhat is your setup like?: currently bear 852's and Otang Inheats 80a with the pumpkin (boardside) and khiro 92a (roadside).
I'm switching to Kahalani's in a few weeks thoughTypical Session Discipline: DH/FreerideHow much did you pay?: giftWhere did you purchase it?: muirskateWhat were the strengths of the deck.: stable and easy board to learn. I can also shov-it with this board.What were the weaknesses?: I usually do my slides with my dervish, so I found it a little difficult to slide because of the concave. But that's just me and you just need to adjust.Similar decks you have ridden?: Rayne HellcatWould you recommend it?:
Yes
