The orthopedic surgeon looked at my injury, looked at me, and said "Skateboarding?" I said "yeah how'd you know?" He said "generally guys in their late 20s who break that specific bone (navicular...

@Matt Needs Wheels I havn't seen anyone use anything but barrels in 5-6 years personally. When it comes to DH and freeride, I've always done barrels on both boardside and roadside...
So I figured I'd start one of these up to get opinions on these. Anyone ridden? How do you like? Anyone fit Mags with these yet? I want to know how wide you can go before hanger bite.
@Wil White Plug bushings are boardside, insert bushings are better imo.
Right on, thanks for the input. What about plug bushings? I'm guessing board side? I'll give the cupped washers a try and see if that gives me what I'm after, same looseness but less lean.&n...
Someone send em rain wheels hahahhaha.
@Wil White Just adressing the first part- softer bushings always go roadside, its more stable. More stable than no split actually. I havn't seen anyone use anything but barrels or similar in ...
For k5, Has anyone gone with krank 84/84 front 87/87 rear chubby bs canon/barrel rs? I was recommended this by a few people. I've been pretty happy with just hpf barrels, and some aps canons but ap...
I'd like to get see what the opinions of comparison's between standard HPF & APS I've gone back and forth on different shapes and compounds, but overall I feel like I enjoy my standard yellow ...
This is them getting ready for the Olympic skate, looks slidey!
I'm attempting to dial in my bushing set up again after I've started to prefer looser trucks. I'm running split duros and was curious what difference it makes to run the softer bushing board ...
Honestly ya can't go wrong with a sharp lipped slidey af wheel about 72-76 mm. Purp kevos, 72 mm cannibals, 4 prezes are pretty optimal.
@Devin Gneiting I take it up and down hills in Clermont, FL at speeds anywhere from 25 to 35 mph while I'm out doing long distance rides! I also push like a madman and I've had no problems with sta...
I got surgery in 2020 for a torn labrum for a severely dislocated shoulder. Assuming that your doctor didn't recommend surgery, you'll want to do pt. A pt can guide you through all of the exercises...
@Zach Maxon how stable is it when going fast either pushing or going downhill? Also how easy is it to carve around when needed, like in a suburban environment? I know a lot of this come...
Shilling is a form of promotion that does not disclose it is promotion or having any indication that it is promotion. In our space that can be seen a few ways, the biggest of which is, some suplie...
@Jeff Starzl Right!! This is such a good tip from gabe!
@Devin Gneiting any time! Let me know if you have any other questions about the Supersonic - I've spent a lot of time on one of the stock setups from Pantheon with no issues, haha
@phscmedia / Detroit / Downhill, Freeride, Dancing, Freestyle, LDP, Social Push Shoutout to all the homies on here already
@Devin Gneiting out of the entire Pantheon lineup, I'd recommend the Supersonic first. Probably the 8 ply maple or the bamboo heavy flex. I weighed 225 when I skated Ladiga this year and rode the 8...
Dead hangs. Strengthen your shoulders with them and they actually allow extra blood flow into areas that don't normally get it allowing them to heal. Sounds counterintuitive but take it fr...
Hi! I am wondering if anyone out there has dislocated their shoulder downhill skateboarding and if you have any advice on recovery time/tips to avoid in the future. thanks!
