ATM
Blanks are known for there cheap prices and amazing
shape and pop. To start it off this board has very
steap concave making it very easy to flip tricks
and have control. The nose of the board is pretty
big and slightly rounded giving you the pop you
want, also gives you lots of room to slide your
feet up. For example I landed a very sketchy manual
and my front foot was almost right on the nose and
I was still able to kickflip out making it seem
like I meant to do it. The tail on the deck is shaped
the same as the nose but not as long and steap as
the nose is. ATM Blanks also come in graphic blanks
other then the plain wood blank shown below.
The
board has its lows though. I suffered massive
pressure cracks in the first few weeks of hard
skating. The board also started to chip from landing
primo but there is really nothing you can stop
to prevent that, other then land your tricks all
the time. The ATM Blank I had was a wood blank
and needed a nice coat of wax applied to the nose,
middle of the board, and the tail to get the right
slickness since it wasnt coated with a nice layer
of paint. ATM has been around for many years and
will remain for many years to come. Overall I
give this deck a 8/10.
