I think its an odd question. Why are those the only two choices, there have been so many more freestyle companies. My first freestyle board was the Capitol Mini.

I know that i was just asking this because there the only two companies that sell completes and alot of people have just gotten in to freestyle and they usually order from one of the two companies

There are not the only to companies that sell completes.
Decomposed does also, same with Small School. Reverse does.
There are more companies man.

My first freestyle skateboard was a smallschool single kick complete.

Capital Mini (the white model) with Nicotine Terry Synnott wheels, Nicotine bearings, Nicotine hardware, ECS skids, Tracker Fulltracks... that was the first setup of choice those days, much as it seems a skatekings complete is these days.

Unfortunately, for referencing, I can't find any pictures of it. If anyone can remember Witter's old site (www.geocities.com/.....) it's probably on there, but my search yields nothing (all the old ECS/Capital sites have finally been taken off the internet after many years)

darn! i was just on it too!

Eastbilt C. Martin deck, it's still the only FS board I've skated too.

that thing looks really wide? well i guess if your used to street boards it wouldn't be much of a jump

It's a 7.6 or .625, that's what I like about though having the comfortability of a street sized width while still having freestyle features to the board.

Good times, here's the Capital Mini (all the same shape). When Geocities is behaving itself, I'll see if the 'team' model is there (that's the one I had)

Never mind it was Nate Sherwood's model.

Yeah, that was the first double kick freestyle board Capital bought out I think, then they went to more traditional freestyle shapes, hence Capital 'Mini'.

I can't find a picture of the team model, but imagine the building shown on JJ's and Terry's models in the centre of the board, straight and in black ink with a white background.

Kayce - I thought JJ was in love with popsicles now? No disrespect to him, but I highly doubt they're going to be collectors items. Aslong as he's got one to keep for a memento why bother having a load of them?

Is that the JJ board that you see Tony Gale with in his old video's?

JJ does ride really large double kick boards now(8.25 wide is his preferance). I am not sure why he keeps them, but he has a stack of about 6.

The flight was actually a really good deck. I never really did any flippy stuff back then, but it was great for cruising some wheelies and whatnot.

well my very first board was a walmart one, my first real one was a gravity one, then I got an element, then 2 plan B's...when I started freestyle I used walmart boards for the pogos and rail tricks, but i recently ordered one from outlook so I guess my first freestyle board will be outlook!

Modded "Con" single kick from small school. Though it's still being cut...

My TRUELY first fs board was a wacked-out street deck;

Deck: 7.75 Zero Wolf Thomas Deck
Trucks: Yocaher Trucks
Wheels: 60mm Spitfires
Bearings: Bones Reds
Bushings: Shortys kingpin upgrade kit...

So I guess I'm choosing "other"...

But then again... I bought a Sk8kings afterward... :icon_conf

Mine was a freakstyle 4 from decompsoed I learnt so much of that deck and made me fall in love with single kicks as when I went onto a double all I wanted to do was go back and skate a single. and still have it I really wont to but it up on my wall alone with my other coupel of decks.
