Heated Wheel Polarizer 6 ply 6.0
Sure Grip Rollerskate Trucks
Bones Rough Riders 56mm
Powerdyne Hop Up Kit Bushings
Bones Swiss 6

I finally snagged a real Polarizer off Neil Blender. Heated Wheel is Blenders board company and he makes a small amount of these a year, and they're pretty much just available in 2 San Diego skate shops, so i'm beyond stoked.  Picked up a Vert board too which i'll post later.  Cant describe the ride on these things, too much fun.  Turns like nothing else and feels so comfortable. Slight convex, downturned nose and tail and super low to the ground, feels amazing under foot and you can turn so deep and tight. Rollerskate trucks turn much better than small skate trucks.  Nothing like it on a flowy small bowl, on a beer run or just pelting down some hills.  Watson Laminates presses the boards and the stain is so glossy and nice.  Stoked.

Could you make the picture bigger?

Yep tomorrow, now it's skated a little. Bigger you mean closer to the board?

This set up today made me a little nuts . I usually ride around and 8.5 but this graphic in 8.5 was this obnoxious anxiety ridden blue so it was a no go so I went the 8.25 . Now my dilemma this morning was the thunder the said the 149 was to wide for and 8.25 so I put some Indys on which I posted on the truck set up thread . Then after looking st I knew I would hate going back to narowwer trucks so I said fuck it and put the thunders on and went with new wheels as well . I was trying to go through older wheels but I just can’t man I need fresh wheels . I try and skate my set up for a while and my last set up I’ve be skating since late April . I nvr skated the skate mental with the same trucks and wheels so hopefully those sml wheels are good .

I love white boards , so clean loooking . I got to ask how you could set up new board/trucks and not new wheels . That would make me insane .

yes! I noticed once I got this board, that I've never had a board with a white graphic, I really like it for some reason. but mainly, I just love this 8" isle shape. I've had two other of the same isle shape with different graphics. As for the wheel situation, I had just enough money for the trucks and deck haha. but new wheels and bearings next paycheck.
This has me cracking up, what exactly does Black Flag have to do with measuring your dick starting behind ya nuts?

Skateboarding is nothing but a game to find the right fits to appear like you're a proportional human being instead of a midget or a giant.

Damn I wish scumco was sold around here . That deck looks sick . What’s the hardness on the white bushings ? I’m asking the lite blue with no washers and it’s perfect for me .

Ordered this one on sale direct from their site, my local shop doesn’t carry them either. Not sure on the hardness of the bushings. They came in my last pair of trucks (Thunder 147 Ti lights). If they’re the same as the aftermarkets thunder sells they’re 90D, but they feel harder than the translucent blue ones to me.
