Your progression is unbelievable. I'm gonna be getting back on when the rain finally stops after being out for 6 weeks with a broken wrist! The deck has intrigued me for a while. Might be my next when they can resolve the backlogs!!
Thanks bud really appreciate that :D Broken wrist is rough mate I hope you're feeling better - You'll smash it mate coming into hot weather and healed you'll be raring to go :)
Great video, thank you for that. I'm 44, a beginner and have only been riding for half a year, currently an 8.25", on which I recently switched from 53mm to 56mm 92A wheels and I'm thrilled. Now I'm raving about this Powell Peralta as a second board and am considering putting it on either 56mm or 58mm Spitfire 93A wheels. Which components would you choose? Thank you!
Came back to your channel after first watching when you had around 100 subs, congrats bro!!! Nothing but a grind and making strides! Love to see it. Love from Seattle!
Awesome that you got your hands in one. Great work in the 5050 nollie shuv. Nice that it was easy for you. You look comfortable on the transition. Just bend the legs a bit more. The lower you are the the less the slam later. I am big fan of flight decks. I have been skating them front the start of my adventure. Really like the tail and pocket on the Anderson. Looking forward to your summer transition sessions. Stay Rad Ambassador Walker.
Thanks bud really appreciate that - was stoked on the 50 nollie shove and fs rock n roll. Bend the knees, got it 👍 not sure I’ll be able to go back to normal decks now 😂 stay rad mate
@@joewalkerskateboarding every now and then it feels good to go back to a wood deck. I bought a Chocolate deck in a work trip and learned more tricks in a month than ever before. But I always come back to Flight. And I do like Welcome Shaped boards. I guess the Anderson is the Cadillac of shaped boards. You would have to start looking for one now to have one ready to go if you wanted to stick with Andersons. Just too hard to get.
Great video Joe. Wow what a deck! I love the classic graphic. Andy Anderson is an awesome skater, I love his ability on the board and his attitude to life. Great to see you smashing the tricks and progressing so well with transition 👍🔥🔥🔥
Thanks mate really appreciate that :D I'm stoked about every single part of this board and would highly recommend - gonna be a good summer on this bad boy - stay awesome mate!
I’m a big Andy Anderson fan my self and I would love to get one of these decks but as you said there is pretty much none of them left in the UK. Congrats on the new tricks!!
I wanna know what it's like to Tre Flip it brand new, because any other board i've had, i can never seem to Tre flip them, until i've worn down the tail until it's flat, like how it is designed on Andys board. This board i might be able to pop them as soon as i've set it up. I'm going to order one now.
@@joewalkerskateboarding Also off topic of vid. Personally l find that if l bury rock n rolls front and back that theyre actually easier due to back wheels are right below coping and the pivot back in is easier. I cant even hardly do them when just putting front trucks alittle over coping. I have to bury it or aleast half way until board rocks. Just saw that and thought ld say something. No big deal
Sweet video Joe I really enjoyed watching the sesh and getting to see how cool of a board that really is! Also I remember in the chat you said you tried bones wheels which ones I was thinking of getting the sidecuts 🤔
You know what's weird, to me the nollie shove it where the board essentially does a FS pop shove it feels more natural to me somehow. It's like if I get into a micro nose manual it just goes. Anyway, great sesh man!
Same here mate :D I would say it's the flatground trick which came easiest to me above all others - thanks for the support mate and for being at the premieres, means a lot - stay legendary
By the way, as for people driving trucks over Flight decks.. please don't try this. Because whilst the board won't come apart, it will (eventually) break internally meaning it won't last as long. I have an 8" Flight deck that I skated beyond a useful razortailed tail and it actually did break internally. I can hear it crack when I ride it. _But_ the insane part is it doesn't come apart. It is still skateable actually, if I wanted to. But I retired it and am skating a different 8" (Creature Everslick deck). I have a couple of setups I skate simultaneously, with the Andy Anderson 8.45" probably being my favourite deck. I also like the Almost Impact Light 8.25" deck I skate now as my main deck a lot. Seems a bit less daunting to learn flip tricks with. But frankly, by the time I got those, I will start skating the Anderson deck way more.
That's insane mate that the wooden plys are probably breaking but the fibre glass refuses :D Some nice deck selection there bud - you'll be shredding like Andy before long mate
@@joewalkerskateboarding Thanks, yeah I definitely am getting more comfortable on the board every time I get out. But sometimes hard to find time, have good weather and so on. But will get there. Apparently this summer will be lots of warm skate weather.
@@joewalkerskateboarding Thanks! I have a pair of those 144’s as well ☺️ Got ACE AF1 44’s & ACE Classic 44’s too 😉 Got the same AA deck here and I was going to save it a bit more but after seeing this video I want to set it up ☺️ Haven’t decided which trucks I’m gonna put on yet.
Great video man, I enjoy the way you skate nothing to huge or fast but very technical. I recentlly got this same board and im wondering if it hurts the bottoms of your feet when you skate it for a few hours at a time? I feel like the bottoms of my feet hurt worse than a normal board, But i love the way it skates.
Thanks mate that’s much appreciated, I do love my flip tricks 🙌 I found this bird extremely comfortable to skate, probably the best I ever have and has no foot pain. I wasn’t able to adjust to the shape of the board however so it affected my tricks somewhat but was perfect for transition
@@joewalkerskateboarding nice. They must be 54 mm wheels then? I was debating 144 indy trucks versus 149. I thought 149 would be a better fit, how's your experience been over all? Keep rockin' it!
Woo! I’ll get a session and come back to watch this
Yes mate!! Good luck shredding brother :D
Dude, you just helped me make my decision between this deck and the flight 8.25 (243)
You won’t be disappointed with this board mate 👍 thanks for the comment
@@joewalkerskateboarding he’s got the new egg shape coming out soon may buy that one instead 8.7 though
Looked like a fun sesh. The graphic is insane. Great video Joe!
Thanks bud really appreciate that - I'm seriously impressed with every part of this board :D

Hey Joe! It's been a minute, but I'm still loving the vids. SICK SETUP MY DUDE 🤙 That thing is awesome! Killer set too! Youre so good!!
Hi Lyle, thanks for the comment bud and good to see you - the deck is great looking forward to future sessions 😁 stay legendary mate

Thanks Les!! Really glad to have you here bud :D I look forward to looking at my early vids when I'm like 5 years in, will be a good laugh
Absolutely smashing it mate 🔥🔥 you've gotten alot better it seems
Thanks bud much appreciated 👍😎 need to up my transition game a lot
Awesome that you got your hands in one.

Love the vid mate it’s fantastic

You looking Solid on that board Joe 💪💪💪
Thanks Andy much appreciated 😁😁

Once the distribution issue has been solved mate you’ll be able to bag one, thanks for the comment and support bud 👍
The famous Andy Anderson deck 🔥🔥🔥
That’s right mate 😁😁

I’d love to be able to tell you mate but I can’t tre 😂😂 there’s a tonne of pop and concave should imagine it’s tasty 👍
Does it feel
More like a 8.5 or a 8.25? I’m riding flight popsocle 8.5 and my friend said that this AA 8.45 feels like and 8.25 deck.
Definitely more 8.25 , it felt smaller than I expected 👍
Cool vid man. But l heard the flight decks are heavier than normal 7 ply decks. Any thoughts?
Thanks Chris much appreciated 😁 I’d actually say the opposite, I found that with the fibre glass weave it was ever so slightly lighter 👍
@@joewalkerskateboarding Cool. Thx. It seems like they would be lighter with the name 'flight'. 👍
@@joewalkerskateboarding Also off topic of vid. Personally l find that if l bury rock n rolls front and back that theyre actually easier due to back wheels are right below coping and the pivot back in is easier.

@@chris73brown thanks for the tips mate I really appreciate that, I’ll make sure to try that next time 😁
@@joewalkerskateboarding 👍
Sweet video Joe I really enjoyed watching the sesh and getting to see how cool of a board that really is! Also I remember in the chat you said you tried bones wheels which ones I was thinking of getting the sidecuts 🤔
Thanks bud really appreciate it 😁 it sure is an awesome board - I just got some 52mm plain bones they were really good you’re in good hands with bones
@@joewalkerskateboarding Oooh nice that’s really cool! I think I’m going to go for the 54 mm bones sidecuts 😁 I’ll let ya know how they are
You know what's weird, to me the nollie shove it where the board essentially does a FS pop shove it feels more natural to me somehow. It's like if I get into a micro nose manual it just goes. Anyway, great sesh man!

Really nice deck! Thanks for this video. May I ask you what wheels do you have on this setup?
Hi Viktor, thanks for the support mate :D I have spitfire F4 54mm conicals and couldn't recommend them more; they are excellent
@@joewalkerskateboarding Thank you
Congrats on the new board bud! Those flight decks are hard to come by. Do you prefer loose or tight trucks?
Thanks mate it took me like 6 months of searching to finally get this 😂 loose definitely - how about you mate?
@@joewalkerskateboarding glad you finally found one brother👍🏽. A little bit tighter than loose for me
what size trucks does one put on the Andy Anderson 8.45" deck? so confused by the shape. What trucks were used in this vid?
Hey man I use 144 Indy’s 👍 they work great!
@@joewalkerskateboarding whoa!!! Mind blown! Indy 144s. Ok. That really helps man. Thanks.
That kids bike leaning on the rail and the kids playing soccer would drive me nuts
The feeling, my friend, is shared 😂 thanks for commenting bud
what size trucks do you use with this 8.45" model?
Hi bud, I’m rocking Indy 144s 👍
@@joewalkerskateboarding Thanks! I have a pair of those 144’s as well ☺️ Got ACE AF1 44’s & ACE Classic 44’s too 😉 Got the same AA deck here and I was going to save it a bit more but after seeing this video I want to set it up ☺️ Haven’t decided which trucks I’m gonna put on yet.
@@frankrotthier4392 nice!! I thought I’d need bigger tbh but these worked perfectly 👍 good luck shredding out there mate
I have the same deck but 9. i like it.
Nice!! There were a lot more of the 9.13s available which is what AA himself skates I think - I might try that next :D Thanks for the comment bud

Thanks mate 🤙
Dang makes me want that board! I have Thunder 149 trucks. Those should fit?
They’d work perfectly on it mate 🙌 thanks for the comment bud
Good video. Music is extremely loud compared to the spoken part.
Thanks mate 🙌 yeah I need to figure out how to sort that out
What kinda trucks and wheels? Any risers?
Hi mate, I got no risers on this bad boy, got the 144 indys, spitfire f4s 👍 all works well together
@@joewalkerskateboarding nice. They must be 54 mm wheels then? I was debating 144 indy trucks versus 149. I thought 149 would be a better fit, how's your experience been over all? Keep rockin' it!
Yo! What aEuropean stores I can find this deck at? Thanks man, great vid.
Hi Sergey thanks for the comment bud, I got mine from feed my soul which was literally the last 8.45 left in Europe, check them out my friend
