Specs & notes on: the Clutch drop-deck … a.k.a. “Deeznutz”

Length: 40.9” (call it 41”)
Wheelbase: 33.4”
Drop: 1.7”
Nose Wedging: 10 degrees
Tail dewedging: 6 degrees
Width: 10.125 widest… rear is 9.5”
Concave: gradual high rise from a 4” flat. Deep comfortable pockets at the corners.
Deck area: 25.5”
Construction: 9 or 10 ply hard rock Maple. Pressed under 35 tons. Hand shaped.
Drilled old school
Finish & Price: Natural $127, Black $131, Formica $141, Carbon twill t.b.a.

Notes: -Since last time I wrote about it we refined the deck area and it is infinitely more comfortable & versatile so, now it makes a killer commuter/carver as well as a race/dh deck.
-This first run that will go through early September are hand made, expect a small bit of the wabisabi that comes with a hand crafted board.
-Formica colors for now will be as available only. (long story)

We have been working on & testing a wedged & dewedged drop for years and think you will be very pleased at it’s speed & freeride capabilities especially the amount of control the shape gives the rider… this shape allows you to handle speeds and corners with drifts, pre-drifts, standers & speedchecks with ease. You’ll see video soon.

The drop was raised from 2” to 1.7 to accommodate the randal 42 degree plate giving you even more options for tuning… right now mine has these plates and they seem to be a perfect fit for the board across a wide range of riding scenarios.

Availability: We are catching up on orders right now but have some extras that will be finished in tandem with order filling… I’d like to wait a few more days before taking any more orders as as we need to get them organized but, will put up at least one a day here till I’m caught up so, you’ll still have the chance to grab one now. Bear with us cause lots of folks have been waiting a long time.

It started to rain as I was photographing them so the wood version pic’s will have to wait but there will be plenty of pics coming…

Cheers & if any of you feel like noting the location of the specs for future posters who ask about them it would be greatly appreciated

Time for me to finish that beer.
