@Sk8bored idk man, Arsenals haven't disapponted me yet as a freeride truck. I spent a lot of time on the precision ones, and got these recently to replace my 165mm Paris V3s I didn't fully enjoy. I...

@Gabriel Fockler Fair point. I considered running this without a footstop, but I myself lack the gumption to throw confident standup toesides on a setup like this without one. Thankfully the mini I...
Run a soft Venom Eliminator (78a-85a) boardside and the stock bushing roadside. I run this in Ace 55s and it's excellent. Ace trucks are good to set up for hills since they run a taller bushing tha...
Chopping the Muirderer was a good call, that concave seems really nice for a small downhill setup. Also cool to see there's still people out there riding Skoas.
I'd bring back 78a black core Biggie hawgs and 80a These 327s. Also 78.5a Cult Daredevils were incredible wheels that I'd love to skate again.
I've not seen an Airflow Bracket in a hot minute, anyone who isn't aware of that board should look up a concave image of it. It's nuts for a wood board. Very cool setup man. Also those lathed bigg...
@Václav What I run in most TKPs is an 81a Venom eliminator boardside with no washer if needed (especially for indys) and the stock bushing roadside. This gives a really supported but a...
Demonseed looks rad. Personally I'd have it dropped through with less of a split, but it looks like a nice boaty hill shlubber how you've got it.
That Evo looks really fun. Those V1 Cronins are a good match for the Evo with all the rake they have. And scrubbed mags are always good. Also gotta mention the Bert, looks like It'd carve so nicely.
Recently put this together, got a few sessions before the snowy weather. Deck tapers to about 8.9" at the first rear bolts. Need more time with the wheels, but they're great so far. Setup listed be...
This is my really super so serious setup with slimbo Seismic spring trucks. It is setup as follows: -Jet Vulcan Banger 32 with idk grip -130mm 45/30* Seismic G4(?) w/ white springs front and yell...
@Matt Needs Wheels Any explanation as to why? They function fine and aren't visibly worn. I know the WFB lubricated 'thane technically has a 5 year lifespan, though I haven't had issues with them s...
I've never had to replace Riptide pivots due to wear, and I've had some for 7+ years in some trucks. Riptide bushings hold up very well over time as well. Generally bushings will compress and becom...
This run was my first on YT, but the even earlier ones are lost to Vimeo now. I've skated down hills since 2012 and got my first longboard in 2008. What I remember most from that time is just how ...
@Jay Jauregui it's an old sticker that's just a bit too tasteless for a forum tbh. I'd rather not represent myself with swearing on a public platform, even just as a sticker.
I've been fortunate enough in my time skating down hills to have never broken a bone. Drink your dang milk folks. Though I've certainly had my share of gnarly spills, here's a few examples; Skatin...
That's one of the most Edge Boardshop coded quivers I've seen in recent years. I like the toast graphic Killswitch, but it's just begging for those K4s.
Dude that Pocket Ace concave is elite. Great board right there. I respect the thrifty nature of the setup, doesn't need to cost a fortune to work well.
@Logan Neikirk Glad someone else recognizes Dubs! I probably wouldn't have nearly as much passion for DH without their guidance and contributions to the local scene.
@F Llabata it works pretty well for me. I don't really need a super restrictive footstop for a setup like this, it feels secure for toesides without feeling like I'm strapped to the board.
Here's my freeride and downhill setup, what I probably skate the most. Setup is as follows: Dubs Mr. Business at 24" wheelbase Lokton w/ Riptide PSD Outside Arsenal cast 165mm at 50/40* 85/81...
@Spencer Patton Oh I know it's a Pantheon, my misidentification of the deck was a joke in reference to it being similarly shaped and flat. The graphic even reminds me of the Arbiter LCD a bit. No...
Nice Original Arbiter KT. Also pretty sure I've skated that road in the first pic. Eastern US, dead end at the top and all overgrown?
I can barely Ollie. My dude, 4/5 of your setups have a kicktail.
@F Llabata Absolutely. I'd especially like to see a 30* forged plate from the likes of Paris so there's an accessible Randal geometry plate for hangers compatible with that. Currently the lowest ac...
