ANDY ANDERSON'S NEW SKATEBOARD 2023

[@zakindabox]

The best part was the genuine gratitude Andy had for y’all taking the time to check out his passion projects. Wholesome

[@HawtDawg420]

so wholesome

[@RyohMadDog]

Dude for real. The guy's in his mid 20's and is literally making his own custom boards down to all the physics and ergonomics and material science and even some psychology I guess you'd call it with visual cues on the board. And now you can even just get this crazy custom board stock. He's a genius and I do think this legitimately changes the sport and how boards can and will be designed going forward. And of course the braille team can see how big he is and is going to be so they're all a bit starstruck. But he's so fricking humble!!! And he's just stoked that the braille team wanted to FaceTime him and he's a bit star struck himself, but I think maybe they recognize that in each other and so they really come off as peers and friends. And he's definitely aware of the reach the braille team has and what it will do for his marketing, but he doesn't just see it as a business move, he sees it as a friend helping and he is very grateful.

[@johnbenoit6768]

Andy Anderson is one of the most passionate skateboarders I've ever seen, love the new board. Lots of thought put into it.

[@will1631]

Who's better than Andy? He's a true wizard! 🧙‍♂️

[@putnamehereholdmadoodle]

He didn't do well it seems as his trick.

[@TheBlueBunnyKen]

He is an old school skater, not a trick master

[@justin_your_cousin9273]

Giger and Anderson are not your typical power skaters busting out sky high FS kickflips

[@Xmarc2]

he is THE skater nerd of all time hes a genius

[@courier11sec]

That board is so rad. The way the mass is concentrated along the center line and the way the features are placed to put the leverage in the best direction. Andy is a thinker the way Rodney Mullen is a thinker.

[@will1631]

Aron should get Andy, Mullen, and that amazing freestyle flatground dood at the braille house together

[@courier11sec]

@@will1631 do you mean Jonny Geiger? Alexander Rademacher would be a great addition too.

[@bflippsytrance]

He's the only one that makes me think of classic Mullen all the time showing the same interesting ideas and then he does some things that I've never seen before, absolute class.

Andy does it all, most versatile skater and honestly my favorite. I wanna see him go with the braille team to revisit the mega ramp

That monster flip sold me on the board so hard. Literal game changer

[@TheSubliminalCriminal]

im actually blown away lol, this literally defies physics, look up the tennis racket theorem

[@df8official]

Andy Anderson is almost single-handedly responsible for my love of skating and deserves every bit of attention he’s getting from this video. Thank you guys so much for lifting up such great skaters and giving them the platform they deserve! You all rock 🤟

[@ozone_agnes]

Watching Aaron, Gabe, Glo, and Andy just chill and chat like that was amazing. It gave me the feeling of connecting with friends I miss. Stay legends!

[@Joehockey1990]

Man Andy is making some serious waves in Skateboaring. Pushing helmets, unique wheel redesigns, unique board shapes with actual reasoning for modifications. Can't wait to see where he takes new technology next. Also, what size trucks do you need for this? I know it's 8.4" but is that at the bolts? Do i you get trucks for an 8.5"?

[@its_finn96]

Go 8.25 for sure

[@iitstre_4550]

Andy is literally a pioneer in the sport. He’s already a living legend and not even 30😂😂. Dude is nuts! I love that he’s part of this sport. Can’t wait to see what he innovates next.

he used the 8.38 truck size or whatever from minilogo with the nano cubics, making them more like 8.4, the exact same width as the board

[@KiloHydro]

Im 45 years old and skated for years now i love these vids.. andys new deck has blown my mind ❤ keep up the great work lads

[@brailleskateboarding]

Thanks!

[@LilDicky81]

I absolutely love Andy, He's brought so much to skateboarding in such a short time. His boards are the best innovation I've seen in a long time. II wish we had a board like this back in the day, incredibly thoughtful the way he has designed his stuff.

[@MrBlackbergk]

It's cool that Andy really appreciates you guys showing off his stuff and how it will help with sales

[@seugoi7460]

I bought this board 5 months into skating. Seriously, it's the best purchase I ever made. The squared off tail improved my ollies a lot, I felt way more confident in my pop, and the flight deck pops really well. I went from barely being able to do kickflips to being able to kickflip a 4 stair in 1 month (it wasnt mob either) thanks to the wings/tabs making the flick more forgiving and again boosting my confidence. That being said, the board doesn't make you a better skater but gives you a small edge, which can really affect your mindset on the board. The most important thing is just spending time skating.

[@jeremybnz]

Andy is a true innovator and its so awesome Powell Peralta support his ideas and let him create these amazing things!!

[@StuffnThings42]

This board is super intriguing. I can’t decide if I should try one or not. But I love that Andy is trying to change the fundamental design of the skateboard to take skateboarding into the future. Much respect 👊👍

[@brailleskateboarding]

I would totally recommend you try it, but maybe wait for holiday sales to bring the price down.

[@dokterzorro]

Try it. I got the first Andy board and it is absolutely fantastic, unlike any board that came before it. The carbon layers make for a stiff, light board so it can be wider and the shape is very smart. Andy Anderson is the Mad Scientist of Skateboarding, I seriously consider taking it up to 88mph...

[@justinemurtha]

His boards are amazing I have 2 one for more vert and one for street

[@liammajor8207]

I've been on and off skating for the last 14/15 years (26 now) and every time I come back Braille is waiting for me with more amazing videos to get me motivated, I remember watching you guys when you where on the stairs down the side of the skate park, all the way to when you first got the warehouse, always amazing content guys never stop 👌🏼🙏🏻

[@brailleskateboarding]

That is awesome! And thanks

[@keblin86]

I'm playing and loving Starfield! For the Monster Flip. The "Over 9000" one is by far the best looking if you can get that smooth. Loving the gaming and anime references :D I would love to try Andy's board, not sure how expensive it will be here in the UK, if it's even available. I will look into it!

[@Elusis1]

i dont necessarily think it will change skateboarding in that it will create the opportunity to innovate new tricks but i think what it will do it solidify the consistency of tricks for pros, and allow beginners to more easily and probably safely attempt, and ultimately master more tricks sooner. Andy is a legend, and this board will become the standard because it was created from the love of the sport, for the love of the sport.

[@JamesTheManiac]

1:47 I remember Andy explaining in an NKA Vids video that the tails protruding like that is so when it wears down, it'll wear down to how you prefer to pop/flick/etc tricks, instead of it starting as you want it and it wearing down to what you don't want.

[@miketuckcom]

Literally the greatest deck I've ever skated andy is a genius he created a deck that helps any skater with what ever trick you want to try or even master I'm a 38 year old beginner and this deck has helped me do things I didn't even think I could accomplish

[@brailleskateboarding]

That's awesome!

[@deadblade300]

Thank you guys, and Andy. I had a horrible day at work, we were understaffed, i also got charged 40 BUCKS for what's normally a 13 dollar ride to work, and then uber said I didn't pay it after they already took the money from my account and are trying to charge me again. But seeing this vid, seeing y'all talk to Andy, hearing y'all be so psyched about this board im so hyped to get and have the same opinions about how ingenious Andy is for designing all the aspects of the board the way he did... it put the biggest smile on my face, which I really needed after the day I had.

[@brailleskateboarding]

We love that we helped make your day better

[@littlerockbeltone1653]

Andy's awesome he's such a nice dude. I'm def saving up for a board.

[@canadagoof]

Now I really wanna see Glo retry the 80 ft. slide with this setup! He's gonna nail it first try for sure!!!

[@PuscH311]

I was fallen in love with Andy started skating and bought this deck and the nano cubes too. My new goal is to learn skating before I turn 50. Only 3y left to train Olli and kick flip and not to die in the process. Pros: I’m already retired so I can spend all day on the board. Cons: I already broke my spine in the past. Thx 4 your content it helps a lot 😊

You got this. Start slow and join Braille Army + and I will coach you

[@alabaska182]

Yeah that lock in looked really nice

[@theCurbSide]

That’s such a genius deck shape🤯 Total game changer, potentially💯

[@uberdogg1]

Reminds me of Per Welinder’s shape if you mixed his blunt tip nose and tail freestyle deck with his street deck and made it symmetrical. Will need to test one but I’m guessing it’s a game changer. Thanks Andy.

Thank you for this Andy my son just picked up his first board and now I have the perfect Christmas gift. Also you guys are awesome we watch your videos before skating.

I’m gonna get one of these boards Andy is amazing I love braille for continuing to show guys like Andy who are just trying to help and have fun

[@WildSkateboarder]

I gotta be honest, when Andy’s first board came out I didn’t quite know the reasoning behind everything. Like I heard why it’s like how it was but it was hard for me to envision. I am absolutely mind blown at this new board. I really do believe this board is the next level in skate technology because this board is absolutely genius!

[@darthtortugas]

I was so stoked when Andy showed me the graphic for this deck when I met him in NYC at a Swatch event a few months back before its release.

[@hemidart7]

Andy has become an Icon and one of greatest skaters in history and born and raised in my back yard Vancouver

[@DibeezyTheGifted]

Very thoughtful deck. Vision and Sims used to make boards similar back in the day. Santa Cruz as well.

[@GrundleMathius]

Andy is like a modern day mad scientist version of Rodney Mullen. I love that he not only rips but he is trying to innovate all the tech behind the components on the board.

[@morrisalanisette9067]

rodney did the same thing

[@afrosheenix]

​@@morrisalanisette9067yep Rodney is the reason all decks turned into Popsicles for 20 years.

Gonna start skating again this summer after being away from it for over ten years. Really tempted to get one, even more tempted once i found out he is a fellow Canadian

[@danielhagberry8910]

Ordered mine on Black Friday I'm so excited to check it out as a beginner

[@RebelDrifter]

I personally think the monsterflip is almost like an impossible... - 3rd and 4th are the best ones as they look the least like a 3shuv / impossible regarding foot placement/landing. Thanks.

[@gageparker]

Isn't an impossible basically a monster flip but you are guiding the board with your foot? So they would look similar.

[@RebelDrifter]

@@gageparker pretty much so, yeah.

[@ivanperkes6006]

I didn't know what to think about rocker camber combo on snowboards, but now it's a must

[@Skater08cooper]

Starfield is great! And that board is awesome!

[@melanieaudet]

Andy's video about his new board actually talks about a new concave as well! I don't recall him mentioning anything about how it grinds on rails etc though.

[@HawtDawg420]

The cleanest and steeziest tricks I've seen! What a board!!!

[@Shade_razor-79]

❤️❤️❤️❤️Andy!!!!❤️❤️❤️ don’t know how I feel about the graphic yet but the shape is 💯

[@Consol]

Powel-Peralta boards seem to be the same from nose to tail. I was skating with a Plan B board and bought a powel peralta board last month and noticed it, my board is also a tad shorter than my Plan B board which was a little odd adjustment at first. But having the same nose and tail and the board being a tad shorter, makes you feel like you have a little more control of the board honestly, and not having to worry about reverting to have your nose not be where your tail is, is a plus as well with the nose and tail being the same

[@jazzqueen1]

nice video and i like the new skateboard from Andy Braille

[@duckyjp17]

Glo was vibing with that board. Nice sesh.

[@glugglugington3196]

That final attempt on the monster flip was 100% it. That is freaking wild to see!

[@couchslouch3540]

I wanna see a Andy Anderson/ Paul Schmitt colab... that's a crazy meeting of the minds!!! Starfields killin it!

[@justineastman7159]

I'm sure those 2 worked together on this

[@ThisOldSkater]

It's like an 80's board and a modern board had a baby. That concave looks deep and the shape reminds me of a late 80's Gonz. Thinking I might give one a try. Website says it's an 8.4" so I'm guessing that at the wide parts.

[@uwinsomeulearnsome]

Sold! But what specific size is the board in the video? There’s multiple options.

[@brailleskateboarding]

I think in the video we are skating an 8?

[@BASE5NYC]

Everything I've seen about this board shape is positive. Definitely want to grab it soon.

[@Houseofmycology]

I need one of these!!!

[@MFXdump]

That’s why I used to like the Frankie Hill bulldog boards. The flared out spot made it easier to kick flip.

[@kevinparkernde]

My first Anderson flight deck is the best board that I've ever ridden. The shape and construction of it will have me absolutely buying this new one. Happy consumer. 🙋🏼‍♂️

[@brailleskateboarding]

Awesome!

[@TheBeardofDOOM]

This brings me back to when twin-tail boards appeared back in the late 80's. Mike Valley was it? With the cartoon farm art? I need to get one of these decks.

[@zweed69]

NICE. Ok so the graphics are a nod to Steve Cabellero and in particular I believe the cab 3? which was the first bonite board made.

[@kevo6767]

I've been paralyzed from the chest down for 18 years after Andy explained the science behind his deck I felt like I could get up an kick flip first try haha. I don't know why but I trust that dude with my life.

[@yes11889]

[@ClutchTacticsGaming]

Haven't seen someone love skating so much like Andy since Rodney

[@threeballwilly]

I've waited a long time for the next iteration of skateboard. A couple years back I remember walking into a bike shop to buy grips for an art project bike I was working on. Everything my BMX buddies talked about wishing they had on their bikes had come to pass, they're almost alien compared to the bmx bike I was painting. This skateboard is that. I wanna sand one down, put some custom art on it and paint up some grip tape. That thing is rad!

[@aspekt7631]

Beautifully constructed

[@brailleskateboarding]

Thanks

[@jomorken4853]

Why not use the special griptape that is designed for the board?

[@iLurq]

In my opinion if you are catching it with your front foot while it’s almost vertical like that it counts, especially the one you fell on

[@professorplunge7705]

Had to pause the vid to comment. But regarding the graphic; the lore behind the item the dragon is holding runs along the lines of "whoever possesses this item [i forget its name] has the power to create ( / destroy) anything they can imagine." Andy explained it in a vid a long while back :)

[@itsbadrabbit716]

Watching that monster flip progression was as tense as Chris Chann's Dragon flip video ages ago. That was sick.

[@Y.A.A.E.G._Games]

[@cooltraineraaron4618]

I think the landed monster flips counted, but maybe a little sketchy since they weren't perfectly vertical. But that one that slipped out was the Monsters Inc.
