 |
|
Has anyone tried cutting down a loaded dancer for LDP? I figure I ask it readily available here locally and no waiting for a deck.

| With a width of 9" max, I'd recommend finding something less expensive and wider to chop down, unless money is no big deal. Also consider the thickness of the deck is designed to flex at a 41" wheelbase, so it might end up being far too rigid with a WB that's 10" or more shorter, in which case you might feel you could have chopped into any hard deck and got the same end result. |

Thanks for the respone. I am being torn into making a decision to order a Galac 7 week wait or Pusle V2 3-4 week wait. i did'nt realize yeah my dancer is quite pricey to chop up.

Ok, I read my email notification and my first thought was...
LOL....WaT!
Considering the frenzy around the Dancer I wouldn't chop it. Topping it off with cost and what Pavedwave mentioned I would get a deck made for LDP and be much happier.

I know it was just a ? some us dont like to wait and maybe consider using something that is available to me. After I looked at my receipt for my dancer it seems outrageous to do. When a ldp deck is a bit less to invest in. So I odered a Galac. Its the wait is killing me. I am also awaiting a Paypal invoice for a Gbomb complete from Mark.I am also considering trying the walkabout. Any input on the walkabout?
