Final Update

Hey everyone!

I’m pleased to announce the information for the Vertigo extras sale!

Standard Edition: We will be selling all units as marked B-stock. There’s a good mix of both A and B-stock (with the majority of boards being A-minus stock), but similar to what we did for Infinitum, we will randomize what boards people receive. All standard edition boards will be sold for $560 on our website. Good news for lovers of FCFS: extras will be sold this Saturday at 9AM EST on our website, using good old FCFS

Special Edition: We will be hosting a Vickrey auction for 7 SE units. These units will be A-stock, and the auction will run on Sunday, August 1st from 9AM to 9PM EST, and you can submit your bid at anytime within that window. The starting bid will be $850.

Please let us know if you have any questions regarding anything! Thank you!

Smooth Curves

Vertigo features smooth curves all around. All four of its sides are sculpted upwards, giving it a thin upper bezel, but also leaving enough room on the inside for its complex internals.
The back piece of Vertigo is an elegant curve that loops around the sides of the board, in a singular flush motion.

Screwless Bottom

From a designers’ perspective, the screwless bottom on Vertigo is arguably the most exciting part of this board. The PCB and plate are designed to allow for the screws to slot in through the plate.
The screw itself is split resting between the two different halves of the cases, which not only allows an even weight distribution, but makes this whole system possible by not interfering with the switches.
