WCD Chassis Stress Test

At the end of our summer meeting today, we decided to "stress test" our brand new West Coast Products chassis. Here are the results:

In all seriousness, the chassis held up great. The pop rivets hold the frame together well, although I am considering welding the gussets and the corners of the frame together. The chassis felt very sturdy to ride and I would feel safe longboarding with this thing. (just kidding, I don't want to die)
