Unfortunately, yes. Whether you go with a professional deck or a blank deck, your board will slowly lose its pop. This is caused by the constant stress on the wood, which eventually causes it to lose its integrity, and thus it's pop. This is why maple has been the go-to for skateboard construction for so many years, as it has great, long-lasting pop that other woods cannot manage. Bamboo has great pop, arguably better than maple, but it is lost quickly and is not as strong as maple.
