JLF....waitin' for my mellow yellow dragons to come in the mail so I can put them on my bfII as well.  Can't wait for the ride...but I DO dig the look of the team color dub cons!

 

LOVE the shape and feel fo the BFII.  Hop'd on my Jay Adams z-flex 10 X 30ish the other day and it felt like a toothpick...can't ever go back.  I let my 10 year old boy skate it now.

By the way..what IS that board?  Is that the same diminsions as a BFII?  If so, are there any other boards made in this mold?

Its a DT Fest 12" and they didn't make a lot of them. I think they may have used the same template as the Big Foot just without the wheelwells and routered edges.

Thanks.  That's a nice board.

Thanks!  Yeah TonyB's right, rare, and the same shape as far as I know.  I think they made 50 of the 12'' Dog Town Festival boards.  100 of the smaller 8.5'' size.  Expect to pay about $400 to $500 for one if the prices are still strong. 

 

Yes another board was made off of the Big Foot II pattern, and it was the Exotic Wood, which I think the Distributor Deck is apart of that run... I think those should be about $300 to $400.  Im only going by what Ive seen and paid/traded for. 

 

I dont know that anyone has ever set up an Exotic Wood... I did a 'fake' set up on mine and it looked killer!  I think only 46 of those were run? 

 

I agree though.... I have a hard time skating anything under 12'' now.  Griffins, Q-12's, Big Foot II's, I even have a drilled out 8 wheeler that I love!  Ive got 219 Tracker Staabs and Red Dub Cons on it. 

 

Id like to see what a 13'' board would be like?  Possibly overkill!

Dude!!!!!!

 

I had first dibs on that piggy!

 

The EE is the bomb, would love to bring it in the bowl, but I think it would bottom out on the waterfall in. It's a great hill bomber and I have a ditch & snake run in the works.

Just like a surfboard bro, once you get it up on the wall it'll drive itself.

 

It will get done and I'll get pics to document

 

 

Now how about forking over the 12" piggy?

This pic of my daughter shows my setup pretty well, so I thought I'd post it here as well. 

 

BFII, Indy 215's, 1/2" Khiro risers, Dragon Mellow Yellows, China Red bearings.  Super smooth ride that glides over everything the street has to offer....
