Well if you look up and see Leeso in the red leathers theres some evidence of the drop down.

Have you tried speaking to Glyde? I dunno if you will find someone to buy one off this early in the piece, they are still reasonably new decks.

corey, i apologise if my previous replies to your questions have not been satisfactory, so this should set it set it all straight.:- I built this board for me, i have short legs ( not bow short) but still short, i wanted a lowered board but not one as low as a evo or a dh race, after riding landy's for five years then riding my own drop throughs and top mounts i wanted a board that combined qualities of all these boards ie: *the ability to keep your feet close to the trucks * the leverage over the trucks both front and rear that you get from a top mount * a gas pedal to lock your rear foot in to keep a good "feel"
*a board that lets your back truck turn although i have tamed the rear just a touch *
the board is also built around the trucks i use Kookys or smokies although any truck will work on these, running kookys on this board will give you the same axle to axle wheel base as a evo running bears or randals in a smaller length but wider with a bigger useable platform,
it is also built for the roads i like skating, i like bends! bombing fast straight hills is ok but roads that keep turning is where i like to play. and that is where this board, in my opinion will perform better than an evo.
like other guys say on other forums here you wont know what you will like till you have experienced other boards. hope this helps.

corey,
i have no set graphic, the graphic you would like i do not have in colour yet, if you have a pic you would like i can put it on a board.easy, we are not a factory, nor are we a army of chinese elves mass producing decks, if you want next day delivery buy a board from adrain, hop or tony, my shoulder is getting good again so the less boards i have to make will mean more time on the hill.

Get this board with some 42 Randal’s or Gullwing Bombers and some Orangatang in heats or Retro Bigzigs and you won't regret it.
I tried out Oliver's Glyde last night and if I hadn't got an Omni this would have been it.
