@Dan Robinson Hmmm what are you comparing them to when you say they are durable? I remember them being pretty middle of the road on wear.
Almost Cored Review: I picked up some new EZ Hawgs from @thriftskate_dot_com but Andrew said I should try to core the orange ones first because I was so close. But after 4 hours, they ar...
@Kurt Derow Lots of context provided, but there's a few ways this could be not cool imo. Not likely but since no-one else provided a opposing opinion yet, I will. Are people livin...
@Adam Hedrick , is there any footage from your event? I'm a Southern Utah geezer, living vicariously through the local youngsters. 😁
@Collin Kruse would love to hit a bowl with someone, I have 0 skate friends. Just getting back into it free many years of casual pushing.
Overall, I don't think you're doing anything wrong here. That's a pretty small group, and as long as they're capable, there's nothing about this that screams "BLOWING IT" to me. I did a bit more&nb...
Recently, I checked out a spot out in the sticks that my buddy shared with me. It was sick and pretty cutty so I thought "I want to get a group out here to skate". A little bit of info about my com...
@Bobomatic I'm a huge fan of the "feel" of a hanger spherical as it feels like there's less resistance to turning the front end and I can dive turn a lot faster/tighter. I have a friend who'...
@Kurt Derow at a 23 inch wheel base I don't necessarily think you need a weight yet. I feel like the weight would come in handy from 20"-17" wheelbasses. I'm on a 23.5wheelbase, I'm riding th...

@David Serate Can't speak on sphericals because I've never skated them (another thing intriguing me about Reapers)... but Bryce said something like 44mm or basically a Cobra Core as a minimum. As f...
I've heard the zealous are very good, and i've seen em for like 260 recently - I'm a bit worried as reviewers (owen campbell) said they felt a bit more restrictive than the DH cybins (his favorite ...
Another vote for zealous. Very overpowered for their relatively cheap price. I did a review post a while back, they're very nice for small board freeride as well.
I'm gonna second Zealous. The split is right in your zone, and they skate far better than their price. You can pretty much do anything on them... they absolutely slam for freeride. Check out Fabio ...
Check out Zealous Slaloms! Been rocking mine for the past year and really like them.
thankful that the forum really sped up the process of understanding how to convert away from monkey toe. this was just a month ago at giants head
@Matt Needs Wheels My snakes / krimes are used and absolutely BLASTED. I'll probably check that spot out once I feel a need to, so it'll be a fair amount of time
As the title says, what precisions should I try after my DH cybins? Right now I'm loving the feel of the spherical in the hanger up front and I run a 50/20 split. I eventually want to go nar...
Ended up going with the Calibers, and I am happy to report that they feel great just putting around! It's definitely lively, and I really like the way that it feels. Threw some 65mm Fireball Tinder...
@David Serate Yeah we likely had a very similar experiance with the type of pave in question just being a cheesegrater on pucks and wheels. Snakes sound like a very good option. I'd wait a month tho.
