Above is the first prototype of how I have taken board design to the next level. I took a look at the Revos and came up with the idea to change the center body into a "P" shape to allow the trucks to protrude from the end without adding weight to the trucks, this has enabled me to make the deck shorter, therefore, reducing not only the overall weight but also the swing weight of the entire board.

This is how the Genesis looks now, its known as the Genesis type E (E for Eliptical trucks), I have played with the design of the truck to save more weight ( 675g each with Ti Axles ) and changed the shape so it fits just right in your hand for those mid air grabs. A full carbon deck compliments the whole set-up.

Above is a Genesis upgrade known as the Genesis type R (R for Revo trucks), The Trampa Deck and Revo Centres from the customers Kitedeck Reflex were replaced with D-EX "P" Centres and a Carbon deck by Design EXtreme Sports.
