Please explain double mini drop. How much drop? Double?
P.S. I would have thought the beamer would get a bit more of a response. |

I want to clarify that I'm not the owner of MidLife Crisis Skateboards, but the guy is my friend and he's not on S&B.
Anyway, I finally got my hands on one yesterday. This was a tester deck, I don't think they'll be in this paint scheme.

As for the questions about the double drop and the tail length- this isn't a vert board, so it has a shallow tail, it's 4.25". http://i.imgur.com/DAyGMwv.jpg
The drop- it has drops just before the front and rear truck mount areas on the top of the deck, and on the bottom, the trucks are mounted on a flat area slightly lowered.

It's an 8 ply, and it's designed for RKP trucks (but I'm going to set mine up with TKP's) and made in the USA.
As for the beam deck, it's beautiful.

I had forgotten how the difference it feels between a solid wood deck vs. a ply deck, something I haven't ridden in decades, very solid and stable.
If there's any more questions, let me know. |

Here's the board setup... X-Caliber trucks and 70mm yellow Kryptonics.
It's a sweet little ditch board.
I did a giveaway of one of MidLife Crisis' "Beam" decks last week, I'll be doing a giveaway for one of these "Beast" decks soon, as well as a ply version of the Beam shape, and a drop-mount longboard deck too, all through Facebook, of course.
