    good job bro- your fingures will heal... the board wouldn't.... fyi- i don't even use a pad a board that i have with a similar shape.... but if you get one- make sure the area you reapply is clean- use goo gone and then some kind of household cleaner- then water and soap - then reapply a new- 3 piece pad... or just wax it up

    you'll thank us later... and then tell someone the same info in the future...

    With "FARTKNOCKER" in big red letters up the rail, a few stickers arent going to hurt. In fact a few strategically placed stickers might actually help things...like right on top of that retarded logo.

    I'll second this. Also, don't pay attention to whoever posted about the "Fartknocker" logo. I think it's cool and besides, a "logo" does not affect the performance of a board. Your board is sweet and I think the stickers take away from the beauty of your board. I like the two tone graphic design. Bill Stewart makes classy boards the Fartknocker model is on my board bucketlist.

    Ron Jon's alias is "Salt Life." I'll let you determine how cool & tough both are.

    Zman you are a good sport man. And that is a sweet board with an unfortunate name. Now if I can just find a Gotcha sticker from the 80's to sport on my board I could die a happy man!
