I am trying to find an honest list somewhere that will tell me truthfully which companies are made in China and which ones are still in the US and Canada? I want to carry mostly American made companies in my shop and label all the made in china as what it is (many companies have the 100% canadian Maple sticker on the board, but the board is still made in China from imported canadian Maple, it sounds stupid but it is totally true. All Dwindle stuff in made overseas Almost, Enjoi, Blind World…etc…Most trucks are stamped on the bottom of the baseplate, but it would be handy to have that list too? I am pretty sure Blind and Girl are made in china but not sure about the TumYeto products and the other larger companies…Thanks to anyone that can find me a real list…The ASBM has something to do with trying to get that kind of stuff honestly labeled, but I think they lost the legal battle.

i recently found this

http://cgi.ebay.com/Blank-SKATEBOARD-DECK-7-75-BAMBOO-NATURAL-Skateboards_W0QQitemZ220424241799QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item33524f0287&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1205|240%3A1318|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50

but in the description it says: “7ply 100% Canadian Maple ”
so is it actually made from bamboo or just colored?
and is it worth it ?
10x alot

for a skateboard?

I’m thinking about getting a new deck.
I heard bamboo was best but i dont know.
i need something strong and durable so i have it for a long time
which is better (stronger) Canadian Maple or Bamboo?

if none of these are the best….what type of wood should i get?

besides e bay? and how come when i ollie my skateboard turns to half a 180?

I’m looking to find a place to get a deck with a Canadian flag graphic on it. I’m in the US so I can pretty much only find US flag ones.

Any search for skateboarding and canada-related terms yields mostly assurances that someone’s product is Canadian Maple.

Anyone know where?
@Meizel: Second World was a term related to communist economies that is rarely used now. Are you saying I’m a communist because I like Canada or did you just misuse the term.

I am just wondering if the ATM decks are made of Canadian maple or American oak ? I am talking about the mini logo ATM decks.
