Give some information
Length?
Width?
Wheelbase?
Rocker?
Concave?
Camber?
Convex (hope not) ?
Post pics of your design and stuff too.
Some nice gas pedals could be nice.
Get really big pockets for your feet so that you're locked in perfectly
Have super big wheel wells so that you can get some lean happeneing in your trucks.

topmounts are meant to be nice and simple, dont go crazy with power , and your power tools.think of the lacey, very nice strong basic deck but its awesome . i reckon keep with what you have , keep is simple , and keep it rad.

Louis its for you, build what you like. End of story.
Good luck with the rocker thing - a lot harder than it looks esp if you want w in there as well. wood only likes to bend so many ways.
Best of luck with it, and props for having a go yourself, sounds like it will be a sick little topmount!

rocker AND w concave? ok.....
Youve said camber no, convex fuck off. I think convex is the same thing as camber no?
You should try concave, camber, rocker, w concave and drop down dropthrough all on the one deck....I dare ya!

Camber is the opposite of Rocker
Convex is the opposite of Concave. Imagine M cave instead of W cave ;)
