60 degree front?!?!?!?
I have ptsd from wobbling out on bear smokies in 2011 so I am anti spherical bearings.
Who is your DH soty and why is an Jan Nogueras if I forgot someone tell me I'm an idiot in the comments
@bastiweber1987666 I am doing the same with mine - don't trip sphericals with Valkyrie tall to standard bushing shims. if I were to do it again, I'd probably just get all the parts ...
Nice one, looks like a fund set up. What sphericals did you use? I have the don't trip ones in mine but I needed a few layers of teflon tape to stop the play.
@Teplitzskate They were OK through chunder - no major chunking issues but they did get rumble as any wheel around this size with a core would.
Been playing around with different ways to bring up the responsiveness on the gold rogues - here is my current "max responsiveness" setup for them.Rayne Libido Gold Rogues (I recommend 55* 23*) wi...

Comet Takeover (Custom minimal concave inserts) Zealous v2 133 Front 146 Rear - Stock Bushings for now... thinking about running a shim so I can do standard height bushings and run standard cones ...
It's mostly insurance on chundery chip and seal roads. My feet definitely move around when I'm going hard on heelsides. I'm sure it's a technique thing but I'd rather not explode unnecessarily as I...
Baller alert ⚠️ Deck is definitely the weakest link here.
Two footstops, good lord. Stand harder.

I find myself pushing mongo all the time and have plenty of control. I do it on busy roads and all. I think getting your trucks dialed is more important to stability/safety than pushing switch inst...
These look great but are you having any fun in them?

Anyone try riptide wfb in k4s? Been skating them with seismic bushings, got zealous slaloms put riptide wfb in those. And now the seismic bushings don't feel leany enough and too reboundy in the k4s.
@Alex Guerra Oh well, I get why you want more stopping power 😅😅😅. Be safe out there!
@F Llabata for sure, the reason I like grippier wheels is a lot of the roads I skate have a lot of entrances for cars and grippier wheels let me shutdown quicker. It's almost never a problem but it...
right!? IDK which model that cop caller is, but it makes it look long AF by comparison.
