hey dave, good to see another dedicated builder within our midsts...my comments are this:

1. on your site, it took me nearly 20 minutes to find your prices.

2. you give no specs on any of the boards...was this overlooked or did i just not find it?

3. the boards appear at a top/bottom view only, can we see a concave shot?

4. what is included in your completes package?
it looks as though the KDR includes RDH 160's with new school krypto clears...why? 99% of people are using Abec 11 now and a lot of people wouldn't go back to krypto at all. I wasn't sure if you were aware of the shift or had just chosen to stick by them in an effort to stay true to your efforts for competitive pricing?

5.your race helmets, who are they made by and what rating do they have?

and lastly,

6. will you be producing short video's that show your team using your gear? linking them through youtube etc? this is happening on nearly all longboarding sites now as it is a great way of advertising your product and team, just a suggestion....

i didn't want these to sound like i was being confrontational or aggressive, these are genuine questions and queries that may help you get an aussie product out to the world.

Thanks for your feedback Ben
The shops i sell through do not like me displaying prices as they may coflict with their price ( the reason prices are hard to find ! )
The board specs have changed over the last few weeks so i have not posted them yet , i will be putting the new specs on the site today .+concave shots !
The completes : 180 force trucks ( updated design with bigger baseplate / bushings ) i will not be using the cryptos ,I am waiting for our own wheels to arrive ( any day now ) which are the same as big zigs , and am only using the clear wheels till then .
The helmets are a full kevlar shell to pad yourself ( no speed helmets have ratings unless the shell is mounted over a rated helmet which then voids rating ) I have been making helmet shells for speed skiers & skaters for the last 15 years


I hope this helps !
Dave Kelly

Our other drop pattern

you might also want to say what wood and f/g and carbon your using maybe not the weigths but at least what the lay up is so the buyer knwos what they are getting. also those drop thru cut out look small. my diy style to fit my grizzly and force is a hell of alot longer than that. what trucks can they take.

im not being a nazi or anyhting just things that come to mind when looking at your website.
