The new Antihero drop has arrived at Nordic Skateboard Supply, including Gus Gordon’s debut pro graphic, The Fishstick. The Homers series returns with Pt. 2, alongside new Grimplestix Revs boards.
The Peter Hewitt Grimplestix Revs 8.75" is the widest deck in the drop, but it is also one of the shorter boards. At 31.75" long with a 14.25" wheelbase, it is worth a look if you like plenty of foot space without a long setup.
The Nick Matthews Homers Pt. 2 8.62" goes the other way. Its 32.56" length and 14.75" wheelbase make it the longest board here. If you prefer more room between the trucks, this is the one to compare with Hewitt’s.
For a more compact board, the Frank Gerwer Grimplestix Revs 8.28" has the shortest wheelbase at 14.12". The Chris Chapman Lance Mountain Art 8.32" is slightly wider but shorter overall, measuring 31.64" long with a 14.18" wheelbase. Both offer a little more width than an 8.25" while keeping the overall length short.
The new decks include:
| Deck | Width | Length | Wheelbase | Shape / artwork |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gus Gordon The Fishstick | 8.25" | 32" | 14.25" | Full SE |
| Chris Pfanner Homers Pt. 2 | 8.25" | 32" | 14.38" | — |

Gus Gordon’s The Fishstick comes in 8.25" and 8.5", both in the Full SE shape. The wider version also adds length and wheelbase, giving you more room throughout the board.
If you normally ride an 8.25", the Fishstick and Chris Pfanner’s Homers Pt. 2 are both 32" long, with a slightly longer wheelbase on Pfanner’s board. At 8.5", the Youssef Kanfoush Homers Pt. 2 and Fishstick share a 14.38" wheelbase, with only a small difference in overall length.
