I have been in contact with Dave from Rogers Bros. and he has been very helpful about giving me useful information and specs on their wooden drop deck, entitled, The Asym. It is a great lookin' board and I know I am not the only one interested in it.

Here are some pics for those of you interested also-

That looks like a nice, functional free-ride board. Not too much drop and looks strong enough to take a lot of curb-beatings.

It could certainly be used as a dedicated DH board as well

Yep, don't doubt it. Guessing that would be its main focus.

8" in the back? thats too narrow for me.

**king edward** · 05-06-2008 07:08 PM

What means, "bent for goofy only?"

**gordo6987** · 05-06-2008 07:10 PM

hahah

1. In a tuck, your back foot is forward anyway

2. You ride a voodoo. What about the back end of that?

The board has an asymetrical concave so there is more concave on one side (toeside). I guess only the version for goofy footers has been pressed.

This is roland's board and he rips like crazy on it. It is more then qualified for a dh board. Never rode roland's but Im regular anyway.

He pretty much covered it

Im regular too, but this board still looks sick.

word on the street is asym concave for goofy stances works best if youre, well, goofy.

it's a sick board tho.

**Lit** · 05-07-2008 07:43 AM

this board is bent for goofy foot but DT rode one and he's regular foot, but he doesnt post here anymore.
Riley loves his... but he doesnt post here anymore.
Tobys friend has one but he doesnt post here.
then there's 2 guys in Washington that have 'em..one doesn't post here and the other is a team rider for a different company,
and i dont think he'll post a review either.
so ya, gl getting an un-biased review on this board..
personally i think it's one of the best boards out there..it just feels so right..almost like it was custom made for me

**PMC** · 05-07-2008 08:18 AM

Oh man these one looks like it will be a killer combo for some Kahas

a 5/8" drop on a top mount GENIUS

Roland!

Thanks for the shirt at Bonelli!

Yeah, my friend has one.
He immediately switched his trusty JimZ Flushcut when he got the Asym deck! He just loves it!
He's goofy, but I have to say that it feels really nice to me too, being a regular.

I think Roland has proved that it is a good deck, if you know what I mean, hehe.

word. i can't imagine trying to count all the corners at GMR Roland's surfed on this deck.

**DK525** · 05-07-2008 04:02 PM

awsome man. But I still think they should stick to boards that are cold when you ride them barefoot. How much for the bike?

**Lit** · 05-08-2008 12:32 AM

Hey Toby! glad you like it. And you know those shirts are pretty rare, i can almost guarantee that you guys are the only ones in Sweden who own them

and PMC, i've been wanting to test a set of kahas with this deck. Any chance of borrowing yours for a couple weeks? promise not to bend them..

If you want, I have a set of Kahas (I gotta sell off my Smokeys until they are officially mine though) if you want to try em out sometime, iunno when though.
