Gave her an asym chop.edit: The kicktail torque block flexed too much, and it made the board respond slowly to inputs, so I reverted back to the super-stiff cutting board torque block.

@Bongloard Reefride Lmk how you like sym if you do it, I generally don't hear theres much of a point to run from a mini split unless switch is common
First time trying a 20inch wheelbaseDeck is made by a Toronto based company - tapers from 9 inches down to 8.5- Ohio Wheel Co. Footstop- Apex concave implantCronins chopped to 140mm. I have another...
Upgraded to 165mm savant hangers, will probably switch to sym 50° setup too since this wheelbase is long Color change on the Ohio wheels is pretty fun ngl
My latest setup that I've been enjoying Gaia, 150mm 50/43 V3s, Ohio Crimson freerides
If anyone tried the La Paulade Plumes yet, please review them quickly. They seem like a good option.

@BBL I like the cosmic cores ones, those cores suck. Biggest issue is s9 doesn't make them anymore, otherwise I'd have 3 sets. Great wheel I just prefer the new cosmic cores.
Race formula wheels are still for sale on a few websites and in my experience they have better slide characteristics than the other S9 wheels. Both the round & square lip are very freeride-able...
@F Llabata both brands look sick I just don't live in Europe so I don't have access to them
@skateslopesurfer on Instagram my name is Brycen downhill/freeride skateboarder in Tulsa Oklahoma
Check Baifo, new spanish brand selling in europe. Amazing price to performance and several solid shapes. LaPaulade polymers are also great if you want a fast wheel to freeride at a reasonable cost.

Equipment in general is really important in DH/freeride. If you feel you can dial things in better than you should 100% Blake your equipment
