@Samuel Sparkowich hell yeah, thank you. I threw double pink up front and still have the stock back. Is double 95a in the back more or less turny than 93/97? Seems it would be similar but mybe the ...

@Samuel Sparkowich have you played with bushings on the Zealous? I'm trying to improve my tuck leaning. I know a lot of the problem is probably how I am weighting my board, but i'm wondering if I c...

Zealous Trucks Threadposted in Trucks / Bushings
Last year was my first year on Zealous and little trucks in general. I love them but now feeling like I could use a little more turn/dive. I'm a little nervous about wobbles but I've taken the stoc...

New dh deckposted in Share Your Setup / Roast Other Setups
It's mostly insurance on chundery chip and seal roads. My feet definitely move around when I'm going hard on heelsides. I'm sure it's a technique thing but I'd rather not explode unnecessarily as I...

New dh deckposted in Share Your Setup / Roast Other Setups
@F Llabata for sure, the reason I like grippier wheels is a lot of the roads I skate have a lot of entrances for cars and grippier wheels let me shutdown quicker. It's almost never a problem but it...

New dh deckposted in Share Your Setup / Roast Other Setups
Picked up a new slightly custom Zenit Bullet. It's got a shorter nose and tail, and added flushmounts. Coming from an Earthwing Hoopty R, this board feels much flatter. I'm excited to try it out. I...

Roast these onesposted in Share Your Setup / Roast Other Setups
@Matt Needs Wheels the zealous are rad although it's the only little truck I've ridden. I mostly ride in the 40s but have taken them into the 60s with no problem. Also have not had issues with free...

Really like the look of the Bullet. How does the concave feel and compare to the Rayne?

This is probably such a responsive board! Hows that torque block working for you with the different heights?

First season on a small boardposted in Share Your Setup / Roast Other Setups
@Kurt Derow It really is going that way, haha. I've never ridden anyone else's setup before but I bet there's more of a difference than you'd expect I'm sure. Btw, pretty sure we met...

First season on a small boardposted in Share Your Setup / Roast Other Setups
@SKATETECH I just mean a simple torque block where its the same height the whole way across, like the Venom one but with your much nicer material. I'm juat looking for something harder and mo...

@Matt Needs Wheels i meant a symmwtrical torque block. So you know of any plans to make one of those? I can totally imagine what you mean about trying to bail and getting stuck. Luckily I haven't ...

@Matt Needs Wheels I bet the shape is awesome for some, maybe a little less functional for me since I don't do much freeride but idk, I'm tempted. Do you know if there are plans for a normal shaped...

First season on a small boardposted in Share Your Setup / Roast Other Setups
I got this board in early summer and have been loving it. I hit my fastest top speed ever on it, a confirmed 63mph but likely got faster runs in later that day. Chopped Earthwing Hoopty R on 22 in...
