just put back my standard 149 indy hangers after skating some hollow ones a young fellow bowlrider gave me (i dk how, but he managed to dig in the center of one of it, where the top of bottom bushing sits, so back to my own grind marks too, precious ones^^

edit : felt weird to ride someone else trucks (U shape grind mark on one side of each hanger haha)

Just got done skating that exact same deck.  How do you like it so far baustin?

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

Still regret not buying the Evisen water deck when I saw it at my local.

This is an awesome set up.

Evisen boards look so cool. I really want to skate one but I am sorta apprehensive about skating a board that's dwindle/dsm. I am not sure why, though. It might be purely from stigmas from friends and slap. I can't remember if I've even ever skated a board that's dwindle wood before. How do you like it so far?

There's nothing wrong with Dwindle wood but I thought Evisen was still using South Central? https://theboardr.com/brands/1068/Evisen

[baustin]

Picked this one up from Humidity in Nola and it is DSM. I have no complaints on DSM boards! If you like the brand/graphic I say go for it. This board is light, the shape is nice, and it feels strong/snappy.

all evisen in europe is dsm forsure - i like dsm wood

I felt the same way.  I was really surprised with how stiff and poppy it was.  It kept its pop longer than a lot of ps stix and bbs I’ve skated as well.

Indeed, it must be their resin 7 glue, very crispy, nice but almost too rigid for my preference.

the pricepoints are awful though. only resin7 or impact boards are worth getting, and from my experience they've been great

I think that's where the stigma on DSM wood comes from. People tend to associate them with those terrible dwindle pricepoint completes but there's a vast disparity between those and DSM's standard decks.

83B??? That's pretty soft, no?

[silhouette]

83B is the step above 101A (which itself isn't supposed to be a thing, technically), isn't it? I live for super hard wheels. Those are hard.

I'm going to have to switch to new ones soon and I'm nervous about popping the Swiss 6's out of them to reuse them. I used to give a void of shit about my bearings because for the longest time I'd skate nothing but cheap ass Reds I'd retire and replace every new set of wheels but those I fell in love with and I want to reuse. Plus they're expensive and shouldn't go to waste. I've never even taken care of them or cleaned them (I'm not nerdy enough for that shit, I roll through grime every day) and they're still in perfect condition after like a year. I was 15 the last time I reused bearings I think.

About the States I got a bunch of them a while back, at the beginning of the year before their distribution in Europe went to shit. But they've been fixing that and the shoes should be way easier to find (hopefully) as soon as January.
