Sacramento/Roseville area here. forever searching for downhill / freeride friends

@Kurt Derow banger 78a urethane has been my freeride wheel for >45°F weather for last 2 winters. It seems to stay consistant pretty well. I switched from white 66mm sneks to them and still

i never got to try venom curbstompers & I am experienced enough now to probably not oval a Tracer Hawg on the first slide, if I could still buy some ( but ,even then, I couldn't buy 'em w how m...

@Matt Needs Wheels what?

@Brian Lugbill I think it's nice switching hands, cant always be the right one eh 🤷‍♂️

Hate it or Skate it?   I have taken this set of 69mm Powell Peralta DH Primos ( 78a 'Paster formula') down to about 65mm and not had any real issue with performance that I can tell , so far....

@F Llabata best truck. They're also a local brand for me. So it's nice to support them.

Flexing on three sets of rojas is crazyy. What do you see on them to commit this hard?

@Matt Needs Wheels That's my whole point, what's the target for those 125 if it's not downhill??  (70 yes / 82 no)?

Comet used to be cool, before it switched hands

@F Llabata Wrongboarding poll came back 70/82 people said they would concider savants with better baseplates. Theres a argument that they are dancer trucks.... but they made 125s just to burn cash...

Second Winter has arrived. Heres my setups as they currently are. Danny Mac with sym 164mm Rojas Hybrids.  Rocket Leon v2 with 119-130mm Rojas 2020s. Rocket Excalibur with 129-145 Rojas Hyb...

@Logan Neikirk I use sanding belts, too. Works great for me.  Another thing that I like about sanding belts: if you look up an abrasives company online, you can find a ton of different option...

@Jefe W all they would have to do is take like 5 inches of wb and maybe an inch of width off, what are they waiting for? 😭

S9 should reftesh the dh division  ,bring a couple modern race decks to the market w updated pinups 

@Gabriel Fockler 125mm 50º symetrical forged trucks is devious. What can you do with that a part from a super solid mini cruiser? 😭😭😭 (carbon dighy who?)

@John Hower I cannot give you a tutorial on roman candles as I've only done a few and am novice at them, just as well as most freeriding save a few things.  That being said, I know that Roman...

@Jefe W I'll skate it for a while and see how it holds up. DM me later if you want to know. 

@Gabriel Fockler more jank than duct tape? That's the only alternative I've ever seen, and there's no Randal-to-Paris riptide cup. This way is permanent and I can control the exact position of the ...

Any general tips for transitioning to free riding on little boards, either in setup or technique?

@Gabriel Fockler got 2008 paris, will a 35 work with em/ whats needed.

That seems pretty jank. Has riptide made a pivot cup for this? Probably not, i haven't seen someone ride prandals since 2008. 

Not making a 30 plate is insane. 125mm sym 50s anyone? 😳
