It's a make or break year for Downhill Skateboarding. I'm pushing 30 years old, and I've been skating gnarly roads for the majority of my life. It's a make or break year for downhill skateboarding....
@Tino Elter Sabres aren't bad. They are Terrible. Atrocious.
@Nick Amarit Okay than chop off the kicks if they aren't important.. tho really they add a placement for the feet and change the ergonomic platform of the board. I digress but of course when...
@Nick Amarit I mean it is a double kick. I'm not talking about using the kicks like a street deck as in to do typical very/street skating but as far as how to set it up for Freeride. Though ...
@Nick Amarit yes I know what a weighted set up is for. It says you live in Thailand.. Do you mind showing me a photo of the terrain you skate with that board? It looks cool, I would test it ...
@Nick Amarit I mean that's your opinion Ethan Lau, Johnny Tsunami etc Pioneered freeriding on double kicks, and they would say the same thing There is good reasoning to what I...
@Nick Amarit time to loosen up the back truck and go barefoot. Don't knock it till you try it
UPDATE: Blood Orange 🍊 are now being considered for getting a Halal certification. If anybody can send me a set of the new Cole Trotta wheels I may be able to Certify. If anybody wants to ma...
@Downwego they look like the Forged Sabre trucks that I used to skate after I got them for free from a Skateshop in Spain. The Sabres were not good trucks. I would say Rogues or Caliber...
@Ed Ape there's no quality control. I've seen pantheons break in half from simple wear, easy de-lamination, boards that run to one side or the other
@Paris MD meh you don't need a short wheelbase if your still learning. Skate what you got and dial it up based on the feedback of how it feels. I get it though it says your in Spain. The fir...
@Nick Amarit I mean yah, that's true tho I kinda assume that a 16" inch wheelbase board with standard kingpin trucks isn't for going super fast. loosing up the back truck makes i...
I like what you got going on here. A trick with freeriding on a doublekick standard skateboard is to loosen up the back truck, much looser than the front, and the board will whip it really hard
@Sk8bored actually his name is Pao Duce
@Sk8bored Rogue, Ronin, Zealous, Caliber Even Paris would be an upgrade
Main issue here is the decks. Pantheons quality is abysmal & for safety reasons it's best to just completely avoid their products
Your on the right path. Powells & Aeras could be upgraded tho
@Logan Neikirk I've been doing this ish longer than Jeff, and I'm a whole lot younger. Dude isn't even a DH skater, he pushes up lookout and cruises down. Or pushes around lakes in the subur...
@Brian Lugbill bump Owen C plz review 😎
How I feel about savants & Paris in general.. Intresting feel, surfy, fun, something worth skating however.. if you live in a highly dh oriented area.. I've took savants 55mph+ &a...
@Logan Neikirk I don't mean to make it super personal BUT.. I did like the other guy more tbh
