    Default Need a good ditch riding deck

    I am looking around at boards to try and find something I could A.) Ride in concrete ditches, B.) Take with me to campus as a means of "transportation/entertainment" between classes, C.) Something that can go down hills fairly well in order to carve. What can you toss at me?

    At the moment I have a 46" Sector 9 with Retro Limes which I use mainly for carving, downhill, sliding and just riding but I am wanting something to ride ditches with.

    I would like to go with another Sector 9 but I don't know what else is out there for ditch riding.

    For ditches you'll probably want something with a kicktail. Longer wheelbase, 18" - 22", 9" - 10" wide. Check out something like the Gravity Brad Edwards deck.

    Too many boards that I don't ride enough...

    The carve 39 would be good too, Gravity also had a Texas edition of the carve 39 which I think was built with ditches in mind.

    Gravity BE 40" is an awesome ditch setup. Peace.

    speaking of ditch setups what happened to bones DTF wheels, were they discontinued and why? The reviews I've seem to say they were good wheels. I"m interested to get some but don't see any around. . . .
