How long do your boards last?

How many decks have you had? How long were their lifetimes?

For me a deck usually lasts 3-4 months. I've had 5 since I started skating about one and a half years ago.

At the park yesterday I saw some younger kids trying to snap a board that was in decent condition, I had no idea why but they looked mental when they were doing it. I woulda asked for the board instead, but it looked like a 7.5 twig anyway, and they seemed pretty set on destroying it (they had it wedged between two objects and were jumping at it) :D
