Somebody get this guy one of those unbreakable Flight decks [VIDEO]. Just make sure that you record the ensuing tantrum his dad throws when he can't break it!

Get a bigger board, you prolly want a minimum of 8.25. Technically any board would work they are pretty damn sturdy but once you start trying ollies/tricks if you land heavy not on the bolts you potentially can snap it. You may want to look into flight decks, i believe they have a carbon fiber layer and a extra layer of wood, they show it being run over by a car here : [VIDEO] Pair the flight deck w/ some indy trucks and any wheels and you should have a setup that will hold and last you awhile.

Antihero is manufactured by BBS. Decks by BBS & PS Stix (in my experience) get tail sag pretty quick. Powell's flight decks [VIDEO] are what you need.
