i just bought a new board tell me what ya think...i'm worried most about the deck...

7.5 enjoi deck
7.75 Tensor Mids
52mm Ricta Wheels
Flip ABEC5 bearings

i haven't had any experience with enjoi...thought i'd try something new...i've heard that either:
A) They kick ass and last forever
B) They chip pretty quick

whatcha think?

They are made from shitty wood and will lose there shape pretty fast I hear, but depending on how you skate they could last a long time. Just depends if you like skating a deck with no shape.

Well the way SkiSk8er1287 skates, it will prolly go pretty fast, we (me and him) like to mess around w/ different tricks. also, when i mess around on his board(becuase i dont have my own) the board usually lands on the back, causing it damage/chips

When they break that easy you must be wondering what people are doing to them? Maybe there not landing over there bolts or something? A deck is pretty hard to break, there made of ply and ply doesnt break easy. My first skate board ages ago was thin and well I dont think it was even made of ply but I could still ollie and stuff easy and it never broke for like 6 or 7 months. (keep in mind I usually take lots of care with my decks and thats probably where people go wrong, throwing there decks aroud.)

Depends on the deck. I've ridden Habitats & DNA's into the dirt without breaking 'em. I think ultimately I retired 'em 'cuz they were so old & haggard, but they never broke.

However, I've had other decks like Birdhouse, Hook Ups, Foundation, & Black Label chip or delaminate on a bad flip trick attempt. I've seen 2-day old World Industries boards roll into a wall after the skater falls off & completely delaminate.

But it's true, lotsa skaters bust their boards by throwing 'em or something. I've done that myself a few times.
