I don't think the two greens would go well together. But pink and green they will look great together =P

Are sick sicks reflex? Are they pretty much just 66mm pink zigzags in 78a instead of 77a?

They're the same thane that's in all the pink zig zags..
Yeah, they're just 66mm Pink Zig Zags...I think 78a...
I honestly don't know for sure if they're reflex or not...
I think they are, but I'm not 100% sure...
But I do know that they're grippy as can be and would look sick-sick...

Blix, thanks for reposting the link to that video...
Crappysurfer got mad at me when I posted it before the big crash
and it was lost.
Yours and garciaworks boards are almost ready to ship
this week.
Sh1v3i2, yours and another (orange) one for someone else
are under way, and are almost ready for graphics/finish....
Roughly 2 more weeks before shipping on those.
