@SPODEMONIC he designed that exact deck hes was talking about. he also designed the world industry deck that would later become the standard design for modern skateboards.

[@Nominay]

Wow ... how in the heck did you get this??

[@SPOD_ZONE]

Listen to him describe the board at the end, he just predicted the entire future of skateboarding that would start nearly 10 years in the future. Nuts.
