I have a set of aera k5s, previously owned k3 and k4. These are definitely different than those. Aeras are very premium "normal trucks" if that makes sense. Very nice for freeride/all around riding...

Saw these only because of the Earthwing post about them in the last week or so. They definitely look rad! I love the axle on the rear truck bring in-line with the kingpin - it reminds me of the rea...

@Gabriel Fockler thank you! And the small wheelbase (and everything else) is like the "downhill slalom style" setup/meta as Max Dubler describes in this blog post. It's the new normal!? (Maybe lol)...

Thanks for the good review! Been curious about them for a while, and how good they'd be. For it's price point, do you know how do they compare to other precisions like aeras slalocybins or rogues? ...

@Matt Needs Wheels you know, I didn't think about that haha. It was hard to come up with a dance shitpost so I just used everyone clowning on the amazing crown board rider

@xmasterZx this is a good analysis, and by someone who def knows what they're talking about (unlike me 😭😂) I don't think it's covered under warranty, my friend in person, and some of the ppl who m...

@Gabriel Fockler  I've almost never had these problems since I weigh so little, but the only cracked cores I've ever gotten where on the fatty hawgs, and the blood oranges, except the blood or...

Replace lgbd_sebs with any longboarderer 😅

The chop looks good, why so small on wheelbase though? 

I've been on the zealous slaloms for about a month now, and i am very impressed with these. They're marketed as a racing truck, but i think that they are amazing for freeride/standup slides.  ...

@Kurt Derow normally close to 40/60 for me, but can I veer closer to 10/90 when I have limited time.  I'll be thinking "Aye bud, I'd love to catch up but I ain't skated in 2 weeks and gotta b...

Whoa. Never heard of this trend til now. Is that covered under warranty or anything? the snaps within the kingpin look all very similar, with half of the axle exhibiting slightly elevated edges ...

  Specs (before/after) Length: 37.5" → 33" Width: 9.75" → 8.5" Wheelbase: 24-28"→ 19-19.5" Rocker: 2/3" (.666") → 7/16" Concave: 2/3" (.666") → 7/16"  ...

"Shameless plugs" so here's 5 from the same trip. 2015 footy tho, so should really make something new for 2024 (1) Skate trip compilation edit:   (2) Edit of spot 1:   (...

Is this a common issue for freestyle/dance? The only core explosion I've ever experienced was on dragonskins, but i don't do dancing. 

Wow, that's crazy. Adding this to my list of why cal 3s are bad. 

He can land them now :( I enjoyed all the memes tho 

This is the video that really showed me that longboards aren't limited as skateboarders might like to say. I had already seen clips of Air Truck or Travelol riders doing tres, pressure flips, etc, ...

@Teplitzskate Interestingly, the wheels that have worked the best for me in dancing and freestyle, and minimally chunk are the 64mm Bustin 5-Os. I used to be a huge Bustin Boards fan but I still th...

In my last post about blood oranges, I mentioned Cal 3s.  Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE the feel of Cal 3s for dancing, and was recommended to use them if I wanted to learn truck...

So, as someone who used to do dancing and freestyle a LOT, my friends and I ripped through a few of these wheels. The cores are fiberglass and aren't the most forgiving. Other Blood Orange wheels w...

YESSSSSS SWITCH BOARDS I LOVE SWITCH BOARDS. BEST LONGBO COMPANY IN THE INDUSTRY

(With all due, genuine respect to Liam Morgan and Full Circle) these wheels aren't built for freestyle. Yeah, I know I'm prolly gonna get some comments like bruh these are freeride wheels, they for...

@Anissa Chavez Yeah, sorry! I meant cupped boardside washer and flat roadside washer! Fun fact, if you're tuning your cal3s, you can actually get 3 separate washer configurations!1. Cupped roa...

This is genuinely so hype, and I really hope this gets more exposure and we can get more colleges to be involved. I wanna see if OSU's longboard club is interested as well as Case Western or Univer...
