McGuckin

Hey homeys, does anyone know how many pro models Drew had for Cassette? I found one for sale....cheap, black with black grip. I think it's an 04', has anybody ridden that board? Thanks

Two, I think. The first one is that transformer graphic (03) and then the one you might be referring to is that black symmetrical concave from 04.

electricsnow, Have you heard good things about her in the water?

I haven't heard a lot about them because not many people were able to ride them (including myself). And if they did ride them, they didn't last long because they fell apart right away (hence, the limited production run in 04). I'm pretty sure labellethrasher has ridden his 04 decks, so I'd ask him.

If you do decide to ride it, seal it up...

I have the 03 with the Transformer graphics..i really like the way it rides.....solid on w2w

Raven, I would definitely get that deck, if the price is right. I've ridden my 04 Reeds and they were great, I rode one a bunch and it got heavy quick but with the right sealant you could definitely get some time on it. Either way, I have not heard of anybody with that skate so BUY IT, and if you don't want it, I know somebody that buy it off you in a second.

electricsnow do you still have an 03 4trac in the plastic? I forgot what else is in your collection, you have a few other rare ones don't you?

Yeah, I have that one and a few others that are still in the plastic...some are sort of coming out, but that's what you get from a three year deck.

The 04 McGuckin is a rad lookin board. Come to think of it pretty much all of the 04 Cassette line is pretty sick.

Raven sorry I forgot to reply to your PM, but I think you got your answer.
The 04 was the sym and it DID have a sealent problem. So like everyone said buy it, seal it, rip it.

Hey itch, thanks man. What do these guys seal it with? and doesn't it make a heavy board too heavy?

DUDE IF IT HAS THE WORDS "MCGUCKIN" ON IT THEN BUY BUY BUY!!!!! Crazy Eyes

NaRC-P rider, does that mean it's the 04'? Is his name on the 03' transformer board?

Speaking of big Drew, has anybody seen/ridden Drew's new gator board, They are concave for only $130. Shocked

Narc-p rider loves drew. That's why he said that. Very Happy

It's the 04 board because it's black. It'd be the 03 model if it had two shades of red with that transformer graphic. And it did say his name..the font was very digital looking, like the way it would look if you tried to spell his name on a calculator...or boob, or hesh. Whatever, you know what i mean.

Raven, you can seal it with a good marine transom sealant and it will work better than any factory sealant. Also, if you have a wet/dry shop vacuum with a hose, you could jimmy-rig a pressure sealer by placing the deck and marine sealant into a heavy duty bag and seal it off with duct tape. Leave enough room in the bag so when the vacuum is turned on the sealant wont get sucked up into the vacuum. Use common sense in this part. Then cut a hole into the bag, big enough to fit the hose into it and duct tape it shut. turn on the vaucuum and in a few minutes, you'll have the best sealed deck ever. Then just set out and let dry. The weight of the board will be determined by the amount of sealant you put on it. After this process is completed clean the vacuum. Sorry for the lenghty post.
