ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

So Nathan sold out a couple of weeks ago and forked out the dough re mi for a roadster...set it up...love it!!!! with the radikal front splitfire rear i felt super powerfull instantly better than last years setup. Only rode it out the front a couple of times over the last couple of weeks...still lovin it.

Today i have a flexi so went to a new estate up the road and set up some cones for a proper go at it.

after about 40 min it was too hot so i packed it in whilst packin up i checked over my board and noticed that it has basically split in half length ways!!!!!!!! FIRST RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At this point i dont even know what to say or do??? Pissed off doesnt come close!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

your roadster split?
Yep....First fuckin ride dude!!!!
dude.... thats fucken gnarly as.... many sympathies go out to you.... do u know how it cracked? can i see a pic of it?
Godamn that sucks! Exact same setup as me - I know how good it feels. Or felt in your case.
Ok so Im cooling down... the crack Jacko goes from the nose down through the bolt holes to about half way down the deck. On the timberr top it is completely cracked through so that the grip tape wants to seperate. That beautiful sharp concave provides heaps of leverage for my heel to pull the crack apart. On the underside it is a clear white stress crack which is of course holding together but is visible for almost half the board. and no i didnt over crank down my deck bolts or do 15ft acid drops either!!! Its amazing really considering what abuse my timber park boards get put through on an almost daily basis and they do fine!! I wish black label made slalom boards!!!

Anyway it is still kinda rideable for the time being and i may do a repair with a layer of carbon on the timber deck to hold it together but it doesnt ease the pain...it just seems like a bit of injustice actually!!!!! FUUUUUCKKKK
sounds like a replacement is in order...
email donald and let him know
Yea dude, dont touch it, E-mail the bloke you bought it off and see what he says first. The more you tamper with it the less chance there is of you getting a replacement.
Hey nath
There is usually a 28 day return policy which replaces the faulty product if it hasnt had any abnormal abuse,which it sounds like it hasnt.
Pavel will be glad that you found out the fault. They will source it and sort it out.
Probably one dude having to many billies at lunch or something.
Anyway they should replace it, but try and give them heaps of feedback so it doesnt happen again.
