This restock looks awesome! Questions: 1. Are the axles all the same material? Maple? 2. How on earth do you choose between the models, not to mention the wood? Crazy. ---

Iā€™m not 100% sure but I think the standard axle is walnut, probably better to ask the man himself in his manufacturer thread though. 2. Just get em all ;D ---

I use walnut for all of my axles. You should probably base your wood choice on the weight you like and/or aesthetics ( my favorite is walnut-beautiful; love the smell too :D) Cherry,walnut= light Oak, maple= medium Purpleheart, bloodwood= heavy I personally like lighter weight wood for stalls and kickflips; heavier wood is good for more adventurous tricks that require a little extra spin time- but are not forgiving on the knuckles if you make a bad catch šŸ˜ƒ
