Oh yeah and my board is gonna be white if that helps

TBABY · 02-08-2010, 09:20 AM

This would look sick on a white board but it may not be your style

TBABY · 02-08-2010, 12:46 PM

I've got this one on my old board and i liked it alot.

Right now i have freaks cause they came on my board when i bought it and i dont like them because they are really hard.
But i tried a kids board who had skimshop pads and i liked them alot

mattyb · 02-08-2010, 01:20 PM

uhhhhhummmmm!!! take a look at these blackjacks. when your OAM or astrodeck fall off, go get a Freak, Blackjack!
ive probably had more freak traction pads on my boards over the years than any other skimboarder (being one of the first skimmers on the team) and ive never had one peel up or let me down on a turn <----NO slip!

TBABY · 02-08-2010, 01:22 PM
