If they're produced by one of the big companies they're exactly the same as any other from their range. If it's an individual artist, they just buy blank decks from a shop and get busy - I suppose it comes down to the quality of the blank decks that they buy. Innit

Few Bits For Sale + Giveaway!, by bozwick on Oct 19, 2011 18:59:05 GMT 1, Some info (from the Homegrown site) on the manufacture of these particular decks...
All of our decks are built with 100% East Coast hard rock maple. East Coast rock maple trees grow with tighter rings and stronger wood grain due to the regions long, cold winters. The result is a tougher veneer which stands up much better once laminated into a skateboard deck. This means HG decks have stiffer nose-to-tail flex, are more chip resistant, and are less likely to break. These are qualities HG is known for. Maple grown in warmer regions tends to be softer and wear faster.
Each of our decks are pressed, shaped and silk- screened, one by one, in LaHave, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Every board is pressed separately ensuring a very accurate shape, close to the mould itself. One at a time pressing also means that the pressure is consistent from one HG deck to the next. Most large scale manufacturers press four to seven decks at one time, making pressure inconsistent per deck and true shapes hard to find.
