I currentlly have a Vulcan, and in my eyes its the best board i have ever riden. 9 Ply Maple. Super strong, sturdy and stiff. And with a 29" WB, i am super stoked. I never took any pictures of it yet. and its currentlly getting the "Alli Adams paint job" so ill have a pic up probly sunday.

Its currentlly setup with Abec classic zigs, and 46* 184 K3's.

and i dont know about you guys. But its seriuoslly the sickest board i have ever seen

post your setups and pics. spread the stoke.

great looking boards man and sweeeeet prices!
what is the difference between the raptor and the vulcan apart from the 0.5" difference in length???
also i tried looking but couldnt find any concave information.
lastly, do the topmounts all feature sharp rails?

yeah they all have super sharp rails. and the major difference between the raptor and the vulcan is that the raptor tapers alot to the back, while the vulcan has alot of room for you back foot.

as for concave. Im sure the exact dimensions. all i know is that its pretty mellow. just the way i like it. ill post a pic soon

aw man i was going to start this thread once my vulcan came in. only a few more hours left to.

i'll start the jet "topmount speedboard" thread because... i want to.

Did you redrill this one? whats the new wb?

Pete,

When you set your Vulcan up, would you mind telling me how big of a wheel you can put on there with the Aeras before it bites? Just curious if 72-75mm will be possible with an 1/8th" riser.

i have my trucks pretty loose right now and if i stand on the rail, theres about 1/8th of an inch before it lifts off the ground. it's close but i won't be turning that hard anytime.

heres a ok cave pic, i'll get a better one with something flat across it later:
