chuckb77 is on the right road.
Default Re: Unconventional Pool Deck/Setup

Get a wide pool deck, I'd go with something between 9-10 inches wide, and under 35: long, you do want some room to move around on though. Skating a mini 27 in a pool is crazy, there's nowhere for your fett to go, and you make a ton of adjustmensts while carving bowls.

Get some Indy's, and some hard 62-65mm wheels, I love the bones SPF's, they are fast as they come.

BTW, when I say hard being Silverfish and all, I mean of 95. Not hard as in 85a.
Check something like this:

I'm finally getting some bowls in my city (CO springs) and want to start some of that. but i dont want a 'pool' deck.

SO...my question is, what would be a sweet board for pools, that really isnt "designed" for them. was kinda thinking something like a GFH 27, just to give you an idea of whats rattling around in my noggin.

course if this is just a stupid and dumb idea, tell me, and i'll come to my senses...maybe

and as of now, I dont plan on any like frontside air stylee stuff, just some rippage and grindageness going on. maybe some wall slides or whatever you's all call that nonsense
