I was also a Silverfish regular and recall reading your reviews! Thank you for archiving these. There is a lot of old and obscure gear which was only documented on the 'fish, many passionate works ...
This is my "OEM+" S9 Ginger setup. The intent is to have a setup nearly identical to the complete Ginger setup from 2011. I use this setup for freeride and tech DH on chipsealed roads. I'm working ...
I've been loving them with seismic bushings on my top mounted nexus
Back in the old SF days, I was somehow a Top 10 reviewer on the site. When they went down, I scrambled to save a bunch of my own content and other stuff that I found useful. As I've fou...
@Marshall Cook / Blank Wheel Co thanks for sharing. Interested in learning more about you and the wheels! Welcome!
@Teplitzskate a mini theory would be sick 😫
Video of me on the board: https://youtube.com/shorts/Jt3Kp5_FfqY
@Rat Bürger hold up i mixed up RS and BS it's cupped RS flat BS
@Kurt Derow The board slipped on a toeside because I wasn't standing hard enough and I curbed it and cried a little inside
@Rat Bürger Good info, super appreciated, I am sitting on ~40 dm's from insta about trucks that I am dreading taking the time to compile/ sift through what is one off opinions or not. So this ...
@Lilith 🤣 Kevos lack of grip has saved me from high-siding at least a couple times. I couldn't get behind the La Paulades personally when I tried them, but @Teplitzskate liked em a lot.
World's least overthought Peacemaker setup. Also flats BS and cups RS???? Whos mans tho. Looks fun though dude, the Peacemaker is cool.
I've driven this road. It was at night and it looked super blind and deathly, at least the second part of the video. Looking at the pavement I'm glad we didn't skate it.
I see you put Seismic lokton on a board with a kicktail. So you must really hate yourself, rolled ankles and smacking the ground is the opposite of making peace. So we should call this deck of your...
The description for Reverses is kind of lacking imo. To me they dive plenty for a 47* truck because they have pretty intense rake. They can also run a tall boardside without a washer thanks to appa...
Surprised no one speaks highly of the 77a happy thane wheels from Otang. The in heats were so good for open road riding. I imagine the kegals would be great too.
@Owen Campbell says the trucks are just cast but a little better. Also that they are just made in a different machine. All true, however! Precison tolerances are the difference between any old truc...
Valks lean is like water being wet. The build and coplaner bushing seats are meant to articulate much farther than and normal rkp and at an offset which imo creates a "drift truck" more than a grip...
Gonna be posting my thoughts and finds on the Cast Rogue 160's. They come stock with 90a venom urethane all around at a lively 48 degrees and 160mm width. My first board to test them on is going to...
I've got super limited experience with Bustin boards, but I picked this up in a huge gear haul off FB marketplace. The closest thing I could see was the Bustin Modela, but it doesn't look th...
32" Landyachtz Peacemaker I wanted a symmetrical setup with a kicktail for freeride, even though I can't skate switch nor use a kicktail for flip tricks. Cal 3 44 degree baseplates with...
Do we count decks that have a bit of rocker up front as having a microdrop? It ends up with a similar thing, but it lets you get a lot further onto the truck
Grip? MagsSlip? Mav prosAll weirdness aside with 88wheelco and the fact that my wheels are swirled, I've heard great things about them from all my homies. I also enjoy them.
