Board:
I have a Moonshine Proscito. It is no longer made. You want a very stiff board. No bounce.
And grippy grippy grip.
This looks pretty good overall, I really don't like the 82a snakes though. The 75a are fun, but the newer blue and yellow ones had a bad slick slide to me vs. The good slick slide of snakes.
I find carbon moonshine pretty rattly on anything but perfect pavement. Looks like the soft riser will help that.
@Gabriel Fockler thanks for the feedback. As I get more runs in and gain some experience, we will hopefully see some wheel progression.
I have a set of 78mm Phat Boyz, but haven't tried them yet.
@Adventures In Skateboarding
Almost anything is going to be better than the Powells
@Adventures In Skateboarding phat boys slide maybe ~1/2 the distance of those snakes,
Snakes can cause a lack of kickout progression with how slick they are so I do think its a little off that you find them grippy, but phat boys will give you lowside form.
What other wheels have you riden?
