It has adjustable front truck mounts to adjust the flex and give a bit more room for nose manuals and such. This option will be available on all 28" and 30" minis.

SWEET!!!

You can take all the liberties you want. It just means cooler stuff for the rest of us.

It looks awesome, Austin.
I can't wait to ride it!!!

Awesome. I really like the color/design on Gecko's board. I ordered a Big Sir last week with the same color and two stripe pattern. I can't wait to see some pictures whenever Austin gets to it.

I am so stoked for my Lil Fin and Big Sir. Thanks Austin.

Arcane, that 26" mini (the purple fading into black) is friggin awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT ONE

I know a few of you have been looking forward to this. I will have pics up of the new Grover carve deck this weekend. 42"x10", drop through, awesome concave. It will be available to order at that time as well. $85.00 + Shipping.

Here is the new Arcane Grover deck. It's a great all round deck that really excels as a carver and light DH board and is a great commuter. It's 5/8" thick, 42.25" long and 10" wide tapering down to 9.25" giving it a slight amount of flex. Riders around 150lbs will get about .5" of static flex whereas someone around 235lbs such as myself will get just around .75".

It has a 33.75" wheel base, a nice 30" standing platform and 1/2" concave spread out over the 10" width providing a comfortable locked in feel even for you folks with big ol feet.

So here's the picks along with a shot of yours truly, deemed necessary by my wife. Customer relations or some such babble.

RastamanD · 07-13-2008, 11:30 PM

If you're talking about my mini at the top of the page, it doesn't really, I don't think. It's one of his rockered minis from the first page. The rocker gives a pseudo-kick tail.

And I can't wait!!!!!!

Gecko is right. It has rocker no kick and is 8" wide.The width is customizable from 7"-9". I do have a 28" mini with a kick I've been trying to get out and posted for a while now but other things have made it take a back seat for a bit.

Here are some pics of Rodgon's custom 30" complete that I just had to post.
Bennett 4.3's, Lemon 66mm Retro Zigs, 1/8" soft risers matching color of course and Speedy Lunatic bearings.

This board has been known as the Arcane Mini for some time, the 24",26"28" and 30" mini with rocker. If anyone wants to help me come up with a name for it PM me some of your ideas. If I use your idea I might even send you a sticker or two. Woohoo!

Speaking of stickers. If any of my older customers wants a sticker PM me your address and I'll get one or two out to you. You might just deplete my stock of them but I got more coming so no biggie.

hey im really looking into getting a big sur, and im just wondering how durable is it? ive really wanted a dancer for some time, but i think i may be able to finagle my parents into letting me buy one if i sell my bomb hills deck. so what does everyone think of the big sur?

How durable? You'll be able to leave it to your kids. Ok well maybe not but I do my best to design and make every board long lasting and durable. You will eventually mess up the pretty paint along with getting razor tail/nose, nicks, dents etc but you will be able to enjoy it for a long time. I stand behind every board I make 100%, if something should happen I'll make it right.

You don't have to take my word for it though, hopefully some Big Sir owners will fill you in on what they think of their boards.

rodgon · 07-16-2008, 04:30 PM

they last and can take a toll, i love mine.

dude!!! that miny of mine looks amazing!!! truly and utterly amazing!!! just got back, im in the airport on my laptop.

fl rider · 07-16-2008, 04:59 PM

mkay i got to first get my subsonic, then sell my bomb hills, then i think i can finally order a big sir lol

[Ian] · 07-18-2008, 11:35 AM

How much for an arroyo or whatever that 26" mini is that you posted a while ago. I think i need one of them.

Cameronisswell · 07-18-2008, 12:32 PM

Looking at that mini is making me harder than watching stuffy girl-on-girl action

...which I don't watch, but I was using that to prove a point, and that point is that the board is beautiful and I cant wait to see some pics of mine

jrod212 · 07-18-2008, 02:43 PM

you dont like girl on girl action? wtf?
