This is my polarizer. The trucks are from some 70s/80s bananaboard (Similar to penny boards but predates pennys) I found at the thrift. The geometry is very close to suregrip roller...
@Matt Needs Wheels I finally got around to it. To recap, the idea was never really to have less grip in front. There are other factors at play that are somewhat closing the gap of the differen...

@David Serate ayy thanks for the (finger)tips
Hey David,I really like the tip of using shoegoe on the seams of pants as a preventative measure. That's really smart and I'm going to do it for sure.I would add that needle and thread are worth le...
When I just started my journey in downhill longboarding the Landyachtz Evo was very good for me. This is a board that was widely appreciated by racers in the early 2010's but has since fallen compl...
