ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

Anyone had any experience with Psycho skate?

Well, yeah, the header pretty much sums it up.
I was thinking of picking up dropdown. deck only.
But i looked here and silverfish and i really cant find anything about 'em.
No reviews or opinions or nothing.
I was wondering how the flex is on it, or rather lack there off.

i would say your better getting a 2X4 and mounting some trucks and wheels on it.

Your better off saving your money for something good, you can get a madrid dream for 160 or an omni drop 43, your better off saving and getting something like that then wasting your cash on a psycho

It's shit. But you can work it out.
You'll need new bushings ($24 or more?) <- a must.
You'll need to play with the angled risers. By default setting, you can't turn that bastard.

It's pretty low so it commutes ok i guess. Just has a turning radius of a minibus.

hope this helps

HA! Nice one.
I flipped the front hanger, put in khiro orange barrels and dewedged the back truck flat (see pic). Turning problem pretty much solved.

The board has a LOT of flex. You might be fine with it as a first deck to build up your skills on - being so low it'll help you learn to slide - but if you get halfway serious about longboarding you'll definitely be looking for another deck.
