this is going to be my review of the decomposed canguru 2 deck
i ordered this from witter at http://decomposedsk8.com/. the ordering prossces was really nice
witter helped me decide on what stuff would be good for my first freestyle board, he also put the skids on for free and gave me some free coffin screws

it took 5 days from the day it shipped to get to my house
nothing was missing or damaged by shipping

once i got it all out of the box and got it setup i went and tryed it out for about 30 minutes i really felt the difference from a street board
50-50's and pogos felt strange at first but i got used to it fairly quickly

but the biggest difference i noticed is how well offset wheels sit in rail
it is worth buying a freestyle board just for that

since ive got the board ive skated it for two solid days for 5 hours a day
and ive learned 5 new tricks. the board has held up really well its still in great condition.

heres a few pictures

***Try to keep off rough cement or asphalt with that thing. If you skate as much as I do you'll ruin it quickly doing things like rail flips, caspers, etc. where the wood is pushed into the ground.

about the wheels. you can just buy off set wheels and use a street board.

If thats a question, then yes. You can do whatever you want. Mullen does rail tricks and he uses a street deck that doesn't even have offset wheels.

It wasn't, he was commenting on this section:

You don't have to buy a board just to buy offset wheels.

Nice review. Just to add to it, I've skated the Canguru too and it is a really nice all round freestyle board. I'm glad to hear you like it so much!

im just saying that if you are serious enough to buy offset wheels why not just buy a freestyle board as well
