...SOLD...

Dear BOL folk. I have noticed that some of the postings for sale are hard to respond to, so to make it easier I will leave my email at the bottom plus I believe my PM works.

OK here is the deal. I have a 173 BJ Slater /BS race boards/ Liberation Sports that is just too stiff for me.

The Good news: This board appears to never have been ridden there are no binding marks and the Camber is 11 mm+ on the floor and a whopping 32mm+ if against a wall. The edges are perfect, the deck is perfect using Rays way I checked the flatness of the base not concave not convex. and put a wax on it so it is ready to go.

The less then Great News: I would call this unused as opposed to new. It looks like there are a few factory blemishes.

#1 The Top sheet has what I will call a wrinkly in the red circle around the L about 1 inch long.
#2 The base right at the very back near the tail has three concave recesses where the base was pulled up into the board as it cooled. see their photo but I know it is almost impossible to see. So I don't recommend this board to anyone earning a living by going fast. for the rest of us we will never notice it.
#3 in the base I flat about a small (quarter sized bump) that was in the red circle around the L in the nose, again one can see where it was in person but not in these photos.
#4 the sidewall on the left side looks like it did not come out of the mold cleanly no core showing but not new either.

So there it is a way fast very stiff 173 GS board that has never been ridden and is completely ready to be pushed hard.

Something is worth what you can sell it for: community make me an offer!

I have flexed it as compaired to other boards I have and boy howdy it is as stiff as an old renntiger 183. Yes lots of stuff can go into an estimate but thats what I am thinking.
