Ben Degros! Been looking forward to your uploads lately because of the coherent and detailed reviews that you give, with the skate skillz to back it up. Keep it up you Crazy Canuck! 👌🙌🛹🔨

Hey Ben. Just wanted to say I love your reviews on skate equipment. Most of the time in skateboarding one will find reviews on shoes or at most wheels, but you review everything from deck shapes to truck designs and it’s sick. You sort of handle your reviews much similar to how a surfer would describe a surfboard and the fins that go with that certain board. You show how such minor shape differences can either aid or negatively effect a skaters performance in theier own conditions and tricks they are going for. As a longtime surfer and skater I really enjoy your channel because instead of just slapping a set up together I have a more methodical way of peicing together a skateboard. Thanks for everything man, the time spent away from your wife and kids to pursue your childhood hobbies is worth it to guys like me. Take it easy Ben. 🤙

That McTwist is coming along nice.

Deathwish is my favorite brand and as a Deathwish skateboarder, I can say that the nose and tail are similar but it is heavy

Loved the good skating but loved the not-so-perfect stuff too...good picture of skating!

Thank you Ben for this one more great video! I like the way you try new sets and equipments. I discover things that never really thought about. Very nice tricks with a pointy board, amazing!

Zero deck next please Ben

Great review! My board literally just snapped earlier today and i got back home and saw this video. Perfect timing hahaa. Your outro monologue gets me everytime and todays one hits me right in the feels. So relatable hahaha. Love your videos definitely considering one your recently reviewed boards.

My heart throbs every time there’s a new upload ❤️

You’re private park is so sick!!! Makes me want to be a carpenter when I grow up so I can build my own park 🤙

Just wanna say I absolutely love your videos and I find the very helpful and entertaining, keep up the good work Ben!!!

Hey man. I love watching your videos. I may have a broken wrist but you inspire me to get out in skate. I’ve been watching for around 3 1/2 years man. I love you bro

I gotta say Ben. I really like your reviews and I appreciate the way you explain everything cheers man thanks for the cool vids :)

Loved that ledge session near the end, was so sick!!

Another good review Ben. I’d like to hear how you go about bearings: good/bad experiences, recommendations, reviews, general thoughts, etc.

That Jamie Foy shape reminds me a lot of those old Baker shapes from the late 2000's. Had a really pointy tail and nose and it took me a long time to get used to it. I even landed my first kickflip on that shape! I'll definitely consider one for my next board.

Sometimes I go back to these older videos and just skip the review to watch you skate ledges. Gets me pretty hyped to skate

Better do a review on those vans style 112 pleaseee

Love your vibes man, haha. That "KZfaq energy" Good review

what a cool artwork on that board.

Ben being the realist... love this channel.

I feel my aware and focused when I skate after I watch any of your videos

The end had me cracking up man

Your skate vids are my favorite

got a foy boy the other week and appreciate this video so much more

I ride Deathwish deck with venture and thunder trucks. Personally, because of the short nose, the Ollies must be perfect but once the Ollies are there, everything is amazing and you should get one

You gotta ride a 9 with 169s it would make a rad video

Been waiting for a deathwish board review. I skate deathwish and love them. I wanted to see what you would say about them

Great review! I'm riding a Primitive (nick tucker, 8,125'', tensor trucks and some bullshit wheels), and was curious on Deathwish! You should discuss on a few other things: what's the best music for skateboarding? What kind of wife/husband should a skateboarder get? what's the best tea for a skateboarder? How many children can a skateboarder have before it becomes ilegal to skateboard after work? And, last but not least, "why is the skateboarder"?

The switch crook was sick!!

I hope your next truck review is about Tensor Mag Lights!

That crusty 'but' spot was awesome!

Ben! Now that you reviewed on the deathwish boards maybe next review you can do is Zero skateboards sometime...much love for the channel n vids you put out.

Another sick review, I like baker/deathwish wood but its a bit heavy maybe your right about them being a bit bigger. Bro can you heel flip out of your front crooks? I'm just wrapping my head around them.

Polar or Quasi would be a sick review

Dang Ben your so close too pulling those Mc'Twists ! Tony Hawk can still pull them at 50years old there is hope for you .

Also i found this skate co from france called restart skateboards and the decks are totally amazing. Giv them a try. U wont be disappointed..

see that Neen williams double nose deck? hope youd review it soon. looks great

Great skating!

Nice ending with the retro board. Im really curious about this kind of board, if you can tell something about it what would you say?

Hi Ben, have you tried Control decks? They are made in Canada. I am currently riding a Studio deck (supplied by Control according to slapmag woodshop list,) and it feels very nice.

Picked up a lizard king 8.1 deck that had a much fatter nose. My favorite deathwish board I’ve stepped on, any Foy model I’ve tried has been too steep of kicks for me

Do a Blind board review... I'm riding a 8" size Blind board with Thunder trucks and just got the 101du 52mm Spitfire Tablets and I'm digging it. I wanna know what you would think about the Blind deck

i want to see a jart review, they seem interesting and are at a good pricepoint

i love deathwish boards!! on my 2nd one straight, planning to get a 3rd one once the one i’m skating now is dead

Not gonna lie, I'd still like to see more mini ramp. Also big board skating at the end was cool.

Nice varial heel Ben

Love your gear reviews alot, I research and rewatch lately. But when you're skating anything under an 8.25 deck, you look like you're on a fingerboard Ben. More 8.25-8.5 deck reviews by "hesh shapes and different concaves pleez? As a tall skater who isn't young anymore, your in-depth reviews are completely taken to heart and I can actually understand when you get analytical about the details of some decks nuances and feel the same things when trying them myself. Damn that was long winded! Keep it up homie, looking forward to the future reviews/opinions!

you might like Almost boards. Just tried one and its got real steep kicks but a perfect shape with some meat on the sides.

Best outro

Hey Ben, I was at the skatepark last night and I was trying stuff down a little drop. I'm comfortable in the air, I used to ollie big sets as a kid, but I never learned how to catch tricks in the air and commit to landing a trick off a dropoff or stairs. Could you make a video on catching tricks in the air off drops. I know you dont do much impact skating but a few tips would be great. Honestly I think it's just confidence and I keep catching my varial heels with my front foot and my back foot lands right next to the tail. I basically need to commit and am scared of breaking my ankle for the 4th time..

If you did a Toronto meet and greet I'd definitely pull up ;)

Hey Ben could you do a videos of your favourite spots for us locals. It would be sick to skate some of your spots

This guy is crazy good!

Love that graphic! They are making a twin nose deck for Neen not sure if you herd that yet? -Jay

I know someone who did a sort off hand plant mc twist down a 3-set xD that was hillarious

Lets see a blacklabel and a mystery board review review :P

Have you ever rode a Baker board Ben, and what did you make if it?

Can you do a zero review? I fell into a hole for 16 years and forgot I loved skateboarding. Would be nice to hear your opinion

Rip Ben! Thanks for all you did!

Review wknd decks next!

Do a madness skateboards review!!!

Anybody have an opinion on death wish decks’s concave? I’m looking for more concave in my decks and don’t kno what company makes them :(

Good sense of humor

Subscribed!

I like those vans

I really love your content Ben but is 7,75 or 8,0 a big difference and is 8,0 or 8,25 a big difference to or not? Keep up the good work

what’s the best website for me to buy everything for a skateboard and some shoes and accessories?

Can you try a ccs blank? I saw they’re very cheap

Ben is the best reviewer/dad I’ve ever had

Big fan of you Ben

5:28 that park is where Andy Anderson had his deck reveal right?

You should review a quasi deck. If you ever do you should get in 8.0, I recommend.

anyone know what shape that board is made from?

I landed a pinchy 5-0 before watching this video

what kind of camera do you film with?

when im trying to learn transition, my front foot no matter what stance cramps and hurts like crazy. its been a year almost and i expected me to get used to it but i didnt. would anyone know why?

How odd, currently on the 8.75x32.5/14.5 WB Deathwish, and it definitely is not anywhere near as pointy. Is there ever going to be a 169 review?! Would be cool to see you mess around on something bigger, 8.75+!

Enjoi Deck Review!

What size are the wheels? Thanks

How many sets of trucks you got laying around?

Please do a review on 60mm wheels

What bearings do you ride?

If I wanted to send you some skate product to review how would I go about doing that?

I’m from Canada to and I like the but spot joke

What shoes are u skating ?

I think it’s about time you accepted the realities of time and ride a Tired deck by Parra.

Please Make a review on Creature 8.6 I feel so good with This sizes I Wanna now do you feel like me riding This sizes

now jamie foy shoe review.

THANK YOU BEN!!! YAYYY And YEP 2 years LOL :D

What are those wheels / size

I just had my first board and it is deathwish size 8. What trucks should i buy?

Hey Ben do you think independent 144s would be ok on an 8 inch deck or should I buy some 139s?

Yo Ben can you make a video on how to tre flip the right way

Had to Thumbs up on that Fakie Inward Heel Alone around 7:18 ish

Ben I have a deck set up that's unmanageable for me...For some reason it won't pop a kickflip, every kickflip is ghost popped or if I try as hard as I can to pop it the board actually flies higher than my feet. I'm considering throwing Indies on there after watching your video on trucks and wheelbase, it's a Real roman numeral 2 and I guess I'm used to 4s and 5s. What do you do when you have a deck that just makes you hate skating?

Next: Lithe deck plaz ✌🏼

review a polar skate co. deck. they are my favourite decks would love to see your opinion on them!

Classic Outro.

Ben Degros! King of the outros!
