He should do a tire track graphic on the deck.
You my dude are genuis
big facts
this comment needs more likes
actually a dope idea, hope someone high up notices this
That’d be sick
"I'm not someone that likes to complain so I just find ways to fix the steepness, like RUNNING OVER MY BOARD WITH MY CAR" - I connect with this on a spiritual level
Much love!👊🏽❤️ I feel that complaining, arguing, hating on one another is such a waste of precious time. I try my best to spend my time figuring things out, making things work, spreading love and positivity. 👊🏽❤️
@@neenwilliams love that. thanks for being you, Neen!
Neen Williams Thats a great way to go through life. Very inspiring Neen. Cool video man I’ll have to try this see if I like a flatter feel. Gonna head up to Uprise and get that deck too the graphic is sick
Finally someone who understands. Dude, all the people I talk to just assume to complain about things right away. Such a problematic way of thinking. Lot of people are not so patient to just take a second to think.
neen aint tryna get booted from the wish! haha
Neen said that he only does this sometimes and I'm pretty sure it's because when they press boards they press 10 at a time. So the boards at the bottom of the stack of 10 are steeper than the ones at the top and those boards at the bottom are the ones that Neen has to run over. Also if I remember correctly Paul Rodriguez said in a nine club podcast episode that he specifically asks for the 4th board in the stack.
This is correct, the place i worked (PennsWoodMFG, PA USA) pressed 6 at a time iirc, this is done for obvious manufacturing reasons. I think the amount pressed at a time varies due to the presses used. I think ours were made custom so they may have been smaller than what a big mass production shop would use.
A lot are done in 4's.
This is really good to know!
the top ones are steeper because the top-ply is in direct contact with the press
It’s so interesting how some dudes can hop on any board and rip and there’s others who are so particular with their setup
I really appreciate this man for making a choice to live a clean cut, and healthy lifestyle still skating! At that to be from the Baker team which was most notorious for living the party life, and skating. Not trying to offend anyone, but just have to express my appreciation for Neen. I’ve come along ways in life in general, to better myself mentally, spiritually, and physically. I have always loved skating ever since I picked up a board when I was 11, and I’m 26 now. I work out now almost everyday, been completely sober for almost 3 yrs, and I love Jesus(-: so thanks again Neen for being the awesome skater you are, and big inspiration to many people out there! God bless everyone!
People outside of skating probably look at this in a bewildered manner, but we all know how far deck construction has come.
Can confirm, I bmx but the title intrigued me. I'm impressed how the board could handle the weight of the car like that
Mark Bœlter so many pioneers in board design and construction don’t get as much credit as they should from the public, which is understandable.
Downhill skating has given more spotlight to the teams who engineer boards as the technology and shapes have only gotten better and more innovative with time.
I find it pretty wild tho how with so many quality brand producing quality decks.. there's no concave design on the market so flat that a guy like Neen could skate without having to do something like this everytime
@@MrChoklad Yeah same, I thought there were so many options nowadays. I suppose the main two right now are big pop and big wide boards. 🤷♂️
@@TrippyDuels10 mini logos are pretty mellow usually
I've been using your workout tips to get in shape so I can get back into skating. I've lost 15 lbs so far. Thanks neen. Your the raddest!
Nice
"I have been using you are workout tips" HOW'S THAT DUMMY
@@siouxicide9002 bro heated about that grammar shit lmaoo
Guys like Neen are real assets of the skating community, disciplined and ballsy to make wise choices (as in stay clean, stay healthy). RESPECT.
It blows me away the transition this mans made. I remember seeing a video of him being super drunk and obnoxious with antwon and thinkin "that dude is hopeless" but wow i have never been more WRONG about someone. big Respect
Skatebrand:
We will give you a big amount of pop on our decks
Neen Williams:
No thanks.
Neen is the bob ross of skate boarding, just good vibes comes from this guy, I love em.
He talks like that lame ass entrepreneur Tai Lopez though /:
Chad Caruso is skateboarding's Bob Ross.
The snapping sounds are the woods nano tunes breaking losing some elasticity, according to prof. Paul Schmitt
Know you meant nano tubes but tunes makes me think how much more interesting a snap would be. Foot through the tail and the all the music escapes! A wee crack and you hear the occasional peep!
Ya I meant Nani tubes, stupid auto correct!
:)
Neen still has hella pop even with cracked nano tubes
Tiny tunes are still good tunes!
He loves a Flat board, yet somehow gets that Massive pop for tricks
I know right. Specially the heelflip
Ron Paul rEVOLution agreed
Leg power + experience makes concave irrelevant imo
zam zam it’s true, I have a steep board and my pops are crazy but sometimes I just wanna be lazy but sadly I get ghost pop
Have you seen his calves?
i love that graphic, I normally don't like graphic decks which is odd; I usually just go for logo decks but ngl that is the CLEANEST graphic design ever, im probably gunna have to go and get one.
Can you grab me one too? I’ll give you money or we can go to in n out
Recently back into skating after 8 years, and a military enlistment. I’ve improved more in the last week than I have ever in skating. Watching you pros skate, and explain what makes things more comfortable for you really helps me explore what I can do, and what i like. Never would have thought to pay that much attention to how a board curves. Keep doing you man. You motivate people... realize it or not.
I love neen videos . Helps me vibe sober.

Pros get much better wood 👌
@@B0SC0E definitely not. Unless youre buying price point boards which are pressed somewhere in china but if you order a deathwish board youre gonna get the same quality of wood as the pros unless its some scuffed company.
also why would they care about better boards. Stuff's free for them anyways.
Interesting- never heard of that before. It makes ur board even longer than it already is with that double nose. Thanks for sharing. Peace
You are amazing and its so good to know that a pro is out there doing the stuff to a deck and designing a deck that i wish i could of had the option to have growing up. So many thanks Neeno🙏
Old habits be hard to break sometimes. Great to see you embrace this! A true reflection of how far you’ve come over the years
Dope man! I was curious about this when I saw it on your IG. Been a big fan from the fitness stuff but been getting back into skating a lot myself now after some years away from it. Keep killing it out there.
I have been doing this for a few years. I typically keep the board under the car overnight. Good stuff!
You're an inspiration bro. Keep on doing your thang! Peace and Love from Seattle, WA
I always appreciated Toy Machine's for the mellow tails. It felt like more control but also less effort to pop as opposed to Workshop/Habitat decks with that deep dish😅
Hey Neen, I absolutely love my new Spew 3! It’s my first twin nose and it’s BY FAR my favorite shape. Thank you so much for this design and dope graphic. You are an amazing inspiration dude.
I use to run over my shoes before I started microwaving them. Years of microwaving shoes to perfection and I've only caught 1 pair on fire
@Tijn Groot kids in africa couldve ate that
Nothing beats having the hottest shoes in town
@@abtwopoint0 Lol you fuckers are funny. To add to the story... This was the 1 time I tried this at work where the plate didn't spin. I put out the fire and went to take them outside where I ran into my coworker that just got there. We both stop dead in our tracks and stare at each other straight faced in silence as he's analyzing me standing there holding my smoldering shoes for a few seconds before we both burst out laughing and he's like "wtf did you do". He tells this story all the time
@@LawnFlamingoPoop thank you for completing the story that was great 🤣👌
@@dylanjk5946 2012 joke
7 minutes of "flat board" hahaha he drove that point home🤣
Daewon also does that.. That’s where I learned it from lol, wassup Neen!?! Hope your having a good weekend!
Hell yes! Daewon is the man! Weekend is going good! About to get out there and get after it! Hope you’re having a good weekend!
Neen Williams yeah for sure I’m 38 now trying to skate everyday and get back into shape gonna use your ab exercise videos later lol take care man!! Stay safe!! ☮️
Love how you really reply to some of the comments...at least i hope it is really you!
@@skarceoneafd9609 hell yeah!
If you asked me if that would work I would say hells no.. But staying that I trust in the Neen..
is this the secret to the gnarliest heelflip
Doesn’t matter no one will ever make them look as good as this guy. 😎
Nom nom nom
Neen your my dad I don’t remember what got me to start watching you more recently but you’ve quickly become one of my favorite skaters
Love how compose you sound. U also one of my favorite athlete of all time, handz down🙌
Never thought of it this way. Definitely gonna give this a try to see if it makes a difference. Thanks for sharing! 🙏
I just picked up the Extended Trip deck and I'm digging the twin nose shape. 8.125" is such a good deck size too
I’m gonna try this, I bought a creature everslick because I mostly skate curbs and lil ledges and it’s got pretty steep kick. Thanks neen....next deck I buy will be yours👋👋👊
Yeah I have a blind Jordan maxham and can't ollie because it's too steep
Best heel flip I've ever seen! You kill it!
My biggest inspiration in skating and fitness! Neen, you tha man, always so sick with it
Much love man! Let’s get it!👊🏽💪🏽
I love that skateboarding is completely preference based there’s obviously science involved but at the end of the day it all about how you feel
My old friend allways asked his boards to be the bottom ones from the press, that worked for him as the factories allways press about 6-10 boards in one go on top of eachother
Yo just copped that extended trip board. You're an inspiration to me man that's why I chose you're board. Thanks for putting out dope shit.
Neen looks HEALTHY AF! I love seeing some of the Baker dudes looking good!
This reminds me of how ballerinas break their shoes before they use them. Got to seemingly destroy it for the best results.
some pros and skaters in general run over their new pair of shoes before riding in em, ive only done it to my most recent pairs and cant say I felt a difference but idk lol
@@sam_rowan Microwaved them? I would just walk around the block a few times, but I don't know shit about skateboarding.
@@j3licat microwaving seems stypid
@@felixr.4177 no i used to do it all the time, all the glue inside and the stiffness of the shoe being fresh out of a warehouse goes away instantly after 20 sec in the zapper
I microwave my shoes (maybe 30 sec total) then bend and flex them then wear them for a little around the house before I skate them.
That's sick! I think I remember hearing Daewon or Rodney would do this with some of their boards. I wanna try this but I'm worried that my board would just snap and I can't afford to be risking it. Keep ripping man!
Put up more videos please! You have such a pleasant personality....need more of this nowadays.
Why does every Prius in California have black rims?
Looks good
Why does every Prius live in California?
Fun fact: The S class Mercedes is a more efficient gas car than a prius. The prius burns fuel less efficiently.
@@ZeaDabble that's literally a lie. S class gets 19-22mpg.
It's the law
Hi! Never heard about this tip before...not sure i will try, but who knows...thank you for sharing such a technique
thanks dude. got a deck in the mail the other day and after letting the truck sit on the nose and tail for ~ 7 minutes each my nose went from ~ 78.60mm to 76mm and my tail went from 75.20mm to ~ 72.3
Bro u are a huge inspiration man love ur chill ways. keep doing u bro ur awesome man!
Yeah bro, totally not worth complaining. Just fix it. That’s what I do too with life in general. Never stop being your own hero!
Shout out to you for RANDOMLY being on hells kitchen. Haha made my day
can you link the episode?
@@EmilJ1998 dang dude i totally forgot. Hopefully neen sees this. But it was on an episode a few seasons ago.
@@EmilJ1998 yeah dude link or it didnt happen. i tried searchin.
It totally happened. I was RANDOMLY shocked Haha
Genius. Never thought of this. Could never put away my old baker for a new board for this reason
Fascinating technique there. I personally prefer steep kicks. The tail does take more time to hit the ground but more force is built up which I think allows me to pop higher.
I just got an 'almost: yuri twisted' deck with steep kicks,full shape, and resin 7 construction and it definitely feels like I get more pop on flat ground, but it took me a whole day at the park to get used to ollieng while going up banks again with the same height and consistency, still not sure if I have it down as good as I did with my standard deathwish deck. I could have just been coincidentally having an 'off' day. I think once I am used to it I will like it a lot, for the most part it already feels pretty great. I understand the logic behind flat decks too though, mostly a matter of preference and being accustomed to a specific specification.
Skated a TON of Almost/Blind Dwindle decks and I love the concave and depth. That being said I’m 260+ lbs so I think mellow vs steep has been less of an issue skating through the years, my bigger issue comes from strength and resilience of the board. Dwindle’s resin7 is the strongest epoxy I’ve used on a standard deck (not impact) and that solves my issues of breaking boards left and right. I think when you skate for so long, you learn what the issues you experience are and find ways to address them just like Neen has done here.
My boys car is his own press machine love it! And the twin boards are the best!
Have you ever snapped one Neen?
I was about putting it under something less heavy - I'd like to try a mellower concav
Neen is the man! I subscribed!!!
i am going to try this for sure with my next board
Super interesting. I didn't even know it was a thing to do that!
This is badass! i never seen this method before
I can’t wait for this deck to come in the mail!!
i broke a cardinal sin and left my board out over night and it rained!!! I was so pissed...i immediately dried it off and also used a heat gun. i was so worried but the board actually still feels and sounds the same...didn't loose that new board poppy sound..coudln't believe it. Sold on Deathwish boards!
Hey Neen.
That's great man.
Thanks for demonstrating that.
Always good to see people using there brains.
You look good by the way. How's it been?
See ya! From Craig.
UK.
I just tried this out because my heel flips kept sacking me and I never had that problem until they started making decks with more pop. For anyone who is having this problem this actually works! I went from a heel flip to butt yesterday to a nice and even flip today! I did it with a Jeep and my board is still like new
It really does come down to what is personal preference and what makes you feel comfortable and connected to your board. I do think it makes sense that mellow boards give you more control, which is great IF you have that control - for me more control does not mean easier to skate - it makes it harder. Same way super loose trucks give you more control - you need balance, like Daewon, to actually take advantage of it
I found neen through his health journey, I stayed for his radness. I dont skate board so if that was cringe don't bully me.
hell yes
You're good. Don't be insecure, be yourself
He’s some good skateboarding history man.
start skating
No judgment, start skating if not. Neens a cool dude stay for the radness lol
Neen you can get little center caps for those holes in your wheels, they are only like $6 on amazon or ebay.
I can hear Professor Schmidt now, “Nooooo! The poor nanotubes! “. 😂👍
Prof Schmitt would say you’re collapsing the NanoTubes 👍🏻
The first time trying nollie heels I sacked myself hard, I definitely relate!
Could you do a before and after comparison or maybe side by side to a fresh deck?
Okay pause before anything else is said I have done this too. But with a tire jack set up because I didn't have a car. I switched over to venture v hollow 5.6's now I don't worry about it anymore. 5.2L would be more ideal but I like the 8.28s
I always put my board upside down on a curb and flex it down over and over with my feet. Sometimes I hear the sound of a tiny crack, typically when that happens my board lasts a lot longer and gets more flat. It is weird, but often if I don't do that my board will break on me really fast. I think it might be because it doesn't have that softened flex I need it to have. That flattened flex I need dramatically increase my consistency and comfort level to do harder tricks right away. With thunder trucks this is especially important, because thunder widens your wheelbase, which makes you pop slower sometimes depending on wheel size and several other factors. I can't skate many boards with thunder trucks, because of that slow pop rocket pop problem. I gotta keep my tricks more level.
Great video, I suffer from rocket flips too. Maybe I will try this. Have you taken before and after measurements? Maybe use a tape measure to the top of the nose to the concrete.....
I believe daewon song used to run his car only over his tails and would leave the board squashed overnight. This was back when he skated for almost, now he moves his boards further on the board press to have a flat tail and a regular nose. He says he likes to feel like there is no tail, i have no clue why, but It definitely works for him...
I feel that. I’m the same way, I like little to no kick on both ends! Personal preference.
@@neenwilliams i definitely like mellow concave and medium kicks, but i think as a skateboarder i could adapt to something completely different in a couple days/weeks. Thanks for responding!
I feel that, lately I’ve been getting ghost pop.
Ive done this with brand new shoes lol it softens up the sole . Microwave works too.
At least someone is flattening the curve around here
Flat boards rule. I ride the mellowest concave I can find and set it up with ACE trucks, makes for a really mellow feeling!
Just got this board which is advertised as 8.125x 32 with a wheelbase of 14.3. The sticker on The board I got is 8.125x 31.5 with a 14.25 wheelbase. Are there two different boards?
My favorite deck I ever had was an element Levi brown deck. I got it because it looked different than the others, it was really flat. I couldn’t believe the difference it made.
doesn't lose concave too?, i want to try it but i really like boards with medium concave
this is dope bro didn't even know people did this
Does this work for all boards cause for different deck companies the nose or tail may be way fatter but I kinda want to try this.... I just got a new FA board today, and for those who don’t know, the nose is hella fat. I kinda wanna try this but the concave is a bit bigger and steeper and I don’t wanna potentially snap it
What’s ur make n model on that fine vehicle? I’m tryna compare weight to mine lol
I think i have that same problem bro when i have boards with too steep of nose and/or tail i dont feel like i have as much control. Grew up skating a lot of blank decks from a local shop and those boards were pretty flat and i learned everything on those boards.
Neen, get some time in with paul Schmitt!!!
I don't believe Baker Boys (Deathwish) are made by PS Stix. I think they are Generator/Bareback (might have changed). Totally different manufacturer.
Yea, that would be ideal. He’ll know what I need!✊🏽🙏🏽❤️
Pudge They’re not on PS Stix but Paul will work with a lot of skaters to tune their boards.
Neen Williams heck yeah bro! I’d love to spend some time with the professor and pick his brain a little. Love his Nine Club episode!
Or Lib Tech, their boards are virtually indestructible...
That’s interesting, I have one of your decks and it must’ve been top of the stack because it’s the steepest deck I’ve ever skated, ghost pop all day haha. I’m gonna try this out.
For reference, if anyone cares, on thunder teams and 52mm wheels the tail measured 5 1/16” from the ground before and about 4 7/8 after. There might be a little more flex, but it’s much more to my shape preference now.
Eres el mejor, Neen Williams saludos y buena vibra desde México, me inspiras a ser una persona más sana y a dar lo mi en la skate ❤️🌺
Cheers dude .. i prefer flat boards as well and it was a thing that was annoying me
literally watched this with my mouth open cringing..but damn, hell yeah, works!
🤣🤣🤣
had it ever have a difference of how it molds into getting flatter while the car is on it if it's hot or cold
THANK GOD!!! I'M NOT ALONE 💪
Wait, is the nose of a typical board higher than the tail? If so I've been skating back to front.
How often do they vary in steepness? Are they all noticeably different?
Yeah I’m not gonna do that, but I do want to try out your pro model board shape.
I got a prius too! That's so awesome!
that graphic is gnarly
I just tried this brother neen and it did not work for me any other tips I can take would be appreciated a lot
Doing this to Santa Cruz Everslick. Way too steep tail n nose for my taste. Thanks for the vid!
I didn’t even know you have a channel, subbed.
HOLY SHIT! I can actually tell a diffrence thru the vid. The kicks look alot mellower
so interesting that you do that, cool vid
Bought that deck and the Hayes cat deck. Love deathwish.
