Rider notes
Pretty much a spare part build. I used Riptide products to revive the Indys. Skate it for slappys, park. It's a nice ditch setup. Good for surf style skating, tech sliding and tight paths.
Pros
Good size. Rocker and wheel flares. High quality construction. Nice stain and paint.
Why it works
I think this deck came from the same mold as the team 33,36 and Raisin Hell/Muirider. It's a great shape.
What I would change
The punk point nose. At least it isn't as gnarly as the OG Thruster...
