Nerd 🤓! And I say that as a compliment! Thanks for opening the doors to your shaper brain. One little thing thing that might help on the next journal for visual folks like me: the differences of each board that you have in the video description helped me understand after watching, it would be great if they were on screen as you talk about each one. Keep them coming!
@@MarktheLandlockedSurfer excellent point! Thanks for your input Mark. I first started to record this video just for me, as a personal journal to remember which deck is which, it can get confusing even for me 😅 Than I thought, why not share this data with other Whitetailers. I might make a Part II of this episode, so I’ll keep this in mind. Thanks, relevant as always 😊
Thank you! I’m glad they look good to you 😊 My brain always come up with new ideas to improve and if I don’t comply, he’s gonna harass me until I get to work 🧠😅 It’s a curse, and a blessing :)
Great sharing! Thanks for taking the time to do this . The boards look beautiful. Hope you have fun testing them out more and looking forward to the next video!
I hope this comes out soon, take my money! Concave of the sharks, shorter pocket distance, nimble size, oh it's a dream. Amazing work as always Sophie!
@@ssemilla I’m really enthusiastic that these specs are appealing to you as well! I must confess that I’ve been designing my dream decks, during this trial and error process, and I’m looking forward to have them tested by others, in case we share the same dreams :) Thanks for your input! I might have some questions for you down the line if you don’t mind
@@whitetailskateboards I only have the Cheetah from your collection and it has been my favorite deck, I'm just in love with the shape and the concave. Now, I'm in the hunt for something even more nimble for transitions. One of the criteria I have is a shorter distance between the pockets since it feels like my front foot slides and moves to the front pocket more often. However, that means my stance widens and a bit of comfort is lost. I have been eyeing the Tiger Shark (I might actually just snag it right now haha) but it seems like the size is very similar to the cheetah other than the width of the tail. So I got very excited when I came across this video. I am confident you will be able to craft a shape that everyone will love and separates itself from the big boy sharks. I will definitely be one of the first to line up for that future deck! Sophie, your work just inspires us to skate more as we can all sense the passion you put in each deck you design.
@@ssemillawow I can’t express how I appreciate your detailed feedback and personal experience with your Whitetail, it’s so valuable to me and I’ll keep that in mind for my next designs. I totally get your point about the pockets distance and how the foot slipping up to the pocket might make the stance less comfortable. You are right that the distance between the pockets are the same on the TigerShark and the Cheetah, but I need to say that specs are like the ingredients in a recipe, although they can seem similar on paper, the feel of the final product can be very different, and that’s often what happens with skateboards. Riding it, just like tasting a meal, is the best way to feel the difference. I just wanted to mention it, I hope it makes sense. If you ever come by Montreal, I’d be happy to let you try and feel them 😊 Have you tried the FeralCat?
@@whitetailskateboards My TigerShark just arrived! Only ridden it once but I see what you mean that the feel is noticeably different from the Cheetah. The wide tail is heaven sent and super comfortable. Haven't tried the FeralCat yet which makes me wonder if I should have gotten that instead of the TIgerShark. I hope this shape you are experimenting on will be released into the wild soon. I'll definitely be one of the first to place an order. Question on the FeralCat, does it have the same pocket distance as the sharks?
