@Logan Neikirk when the wheel is too wide, it actually compromises grip rather than improving it

@Logan Neikirk  seismic speed vents 73mm  they last so long, they are cheaper than comparatively cheaper wheels that wear faster 

It's obvious by now. Seismic and its defcon formula, is the greatest in the world. I'm sure the vast majority of you agree.

Made a new torque block out of an old surfskate deck's kicktail - mounted slightly slanted. A buddy spray-painted some belt-sander pink and gave me some. So I used it on this torque block.

Does this happen to anyone else? I'll struggle a ton to put down decent lines at a practice spot and I'll be cursing myself for forgetting how to skate race wheels properly. I'll repeat the same sl...

@Niall Rawn very helpful! And, honestly, if Valkyrie wants you to do it, it's probably a good idea to do it. I tried it myself already for several months, using the deburring tool, and I can say i...

Afraid I can't help with finding that user, but Nelson still has their calculator page up in case you weren't aware: https://nelsonlongboards.com/pages/turning-radius-calculator#sthash.P4kdpxRk.dpb...

Old thread, I know, but I just found that Valkyrie has some tips and a 3D print file for a bushing holder for doing this operation yourself: https://www.valkyrietruckco.com/slalom-setup-guides ...

@Darcy Andrews as a beginner don't worry about it, at a later date maybe.

Just got my freeride version. I tried a few different bushings, so far I really like tall venoms in front 85/78 and a tall ronin 98/ short 95 venom. The scythe bushings feel pretty good as well, bu...

I do not dislike this idea.  it made me 🤔 if one couldn't have skate shoe soled w the grater surfaces, surface ur board w only 5mm rubber ....to then just do away with grip tape altogether?&n...

Some more extra pictures just in case. And yes, it came to me while I was grating cheese and my finger slipped... A veteran rider told me that he had already seen something similar a long time ago,...

I've been trying a new idea for a few months to improve the grip of my board on my feet. The griptape is certainly an effective solution but it gets dirty, loses stones, gets “clogged” ...

as far as I know I'm the first person to bomb into a standup at the bottom from the left  Standing very hard

You should be fine. Torsional flex interferes the most with stand up toe sides. I dont mind a good amount of flex on my prism theory v2 (also a 7 ply with fiber glass). It's not going to kill you. ...

How much torsional flex should actually worry me as a beginner? Context: I have a 2016 Kebbek Emma Daigle Switchback and its 7ply with fiberglass. I've never had the time to fully commit to learni...

Hi y'all! I'm Andrés, from Madrid (Spain). Just dropping by to share my cruiser. It's a Rayne Brightside (34"x9.25", 21-22" wheelbase). Maybe not intended as a cruiser, but at my 50y/o, 1.80...

@Logan Neikirk I'll dtart with just swapping bushings and see if I need more turn than that, haha. Have you taken the defcon bushings to speed yet? The stock Venoms were rock solid stability for me...

@Alex Guerra yep pats just released them for the zealous trucks, they definitely add a lot of turn to the front truck. You won't be disappointed with the seismic bushings just be ready to turn lol

@Logan Neikirk wow, 75a inserts? I didn't know soft inserts were a think. I've got the 95a ones. Do the spfter ones allow more turn or whats the difference? Im going to order some Seismic bushings ...

@Logan Neikirk update the seismic bushings are amazing in the zealous and also the 75a pats risers inserts in the front feel great aswell. If you don't like the feel of venoms in these trucks and w...
