In the spring of 2022 Blank Wheel Co. was founded for a few reasons: 1. Being a skater myself and seeing the wheel market prices sky rocket. The swelled prices caused the downhill scene to have al...
@Trent Teter Pats a good dude, support him. Makes good products. If you want something he doesn't have hit him up and he'll probably work with you to make it for you. Pretty sick
I'm riding Blank Wheel Co slates most of the time, good affordable.... I am the company. All tantalizing things. But I did set out to make a wheel I liked when I released them. Favorite wheel I've ...
@Antoine No sorry needed hahaha 😅, I will likely be following that advice soon!
Yeah rather have a s**t box Miata then a pair of Rojas anyday
@Gabriel Fockler Yup, I am an older rider in my late 40s... Thanks for your input.

@Matt Needs Wheels Sorry, was just added my experience. Forgot to mention that the stroller bag is also meant for travelling, this one is pretty basic but some are padded (which at the end are simi...
I am riding the 150 and 180 40º bear gen6 with barrel+plug barrel bushings and they are amazing for the prize. A very very solid fast freeride truck, better feeling than Kodiaks even though le...
Industrial vent aerokit+vinyl carbon fiber(-100 torsional stiffness, -100 swagoo, do not pass go do not collect $200) Mf gold rogues
I'll go first,
@Emmet Kabel Idk how I feel about this....
No one uses that older style described in your post. Watch modern race footage, they all tuck pretty "normally" for lack of a better word. Back flat, back knee touching near fold of front knee, fee...
@Antoine This is a great idea, what I recomended was geared around holding or being on the board. If I gotta bike to spots I will be using that.
I personnally use our old cheap stroller bag (CAD$20) that I use for the board and safety gear: https://www.amazon.ca/Childress-Check-Travel-Umbrella-Strollers/dp/B000QWA9F8/ Along with a cheap yo...
@Alex Ribeiro As aerodynamic as possible: basically head forward with most of your weight on your front foot, arms ideally pressed on your body with hands on the butt, back knee going inside the fr...
I ran a standard height bushing roadside in the rear truck when I was on gold Rogues, really helped to limit the lean a bit and make initiating slides a bit easier, since I mostly freeride. Worth p...
Throwing the Happy Thunder concave (any of the available shapes) would be neat, considering the use of a single micro drop in the rear. Pretty sure the Ghost from Madrid, as well as a couple other ...
@Matt Needs Wheels roll speed is actually where our new 78mm excels, since it has more urethane depth than our competitor's wheels and is in the realm of 8-10% heavier. I was surprised with how qui...
@Francisco Bocanegra Hardcore bushings have just a squish more height, which after putting on the proper pre-load, will have the hanger at the correct height and angle into the pivot cup. We're tal...
