This is why you DON'T buy cheap decks.

Yeah I bought one a few weeks ago and sold it to this kid at the park that thought it was really cool. I payed $60, but I told him that this was as good as they get and I got $100. He deserved it too, he was the most annoying thing with a pulse for 500 miles.

so, does Krown have their own website, i saw some of there boards at a local shop and wouldn't dream of getting one, but i'd like to see if they actually advertise themselves as a good company. i'm a little lost in the fact that a company would build such low quality boards. it's kinda like the packaged boards u can pick up at sports authority, if any of you have ever seen those.

edit: i found their site, u guys should check it out.

its because they see him come into the store, and they switch the crap for renamed gravitys and landyachtz, then when he leaves they switch them back. and they have his IP addres and PC ID marked so they only send him the good stuff becuase him being a DHr they want there boards to have a good imprint.

I go with a Riviera Woddie, Definitely helps me get my rocks off going down hills and around campus

so update to his crap hardware on his Krown. he ended up ordering Revenge trucks and sector9 72m wheels and Biltin Bearings. after the money he dished out for all the new hardware i think he learned his lesson. what a tard.

Tough call between a Krown and a Riviera. They are both made and assembled 100% in China. Trading crap for crap.

Now he just needs a new deck and he'll have that Krown dialed!

So, he had enough fun in the six hours his first board lasted that he's back for more? STOKE!! This isn't a thread about disaster, but all about success!

After 3 days of riding it the back right wheel lost a big chunk of the cheap rubber the center bolt on the front truck snaped while cruising down by the sea wall. he probably got about 6 hours of ride time on it. Needless to say i would advise not to buy Krown Completes. Here are some pics to show you what I'm talkin about.

Nice work on the busted hardware and chunked wheels. That dude must SHRED.
Thumbs up!
