spaghetti > how do you like the ATF's on the zagger? Im thinking of getting new wheels for my cruiser and those are on the top of my list
[close]

I really like them so far.  I originally had some 59mm satori skunk goo balls but I found them too big/soft.  The bones feel like a better mix between a big soft wheel and your regular street skating wheel.  I can actually get some speed on the shitty roads around me and still slide on some ledges if I want to.

sounds perfect, thanks

Can someone explain why people cut their grip like this? I have seen it many times on slap and don't understand it.

They don't actually skate, so they have a lot of time on their hands

8.125 shop deck
Thunder mkII 147
spitfire awol 55's
reds

had the awol's in 54 around 6 months ago and loved them.  I'd see them around but they would never be in my size.

Bought a polar deck today and I love everything about it. Wood feels solid and the shape is one of the better 8" shapes ive ever ridden.

I actually e-mailed Pontus today to ask him some stuff and he's working with Josh Stewart to get some stuff up on Theories relatively soon.

Homebase has them, and we can also send you one or other shit if you wanted!  We take Paypal and all that jazz and can ship one to you.  Message me and I'll get you one if you want!

we're gonna put out our new catalog of stuff any day now, our web/media dude has been hard at work on it.  the other stuff is awesome, but that's easily the crowning jewel IMO
Alright, yeah I'll for sure let you know if I decide to get one. I like exploring smaller companies and looking around for cool shit.

I'm still skating the double impact i've had since like january, I pretty much only been skate flat and flatbars/ledges/mannypads right now, but I have both a Polar and a Sweet sitting in the closet, I'll probably set one of those up soon and give the almost to some kid.

I'm going to SF in a month by the way, any pals who wanna try a Polar? I'll probably be able to squeeze one or two in the bag...
