ut I

I had this Creature board lying around untouched since last summer so I decided to throw this together.

I need new bearings for it because the one's I managed to scrounge up were pretty dead, I also want to get some softer/larger wheels for it.  I had a set of clay wheels my dad had from his childhood that I wanted to put on it but I decided against that.

Peaced out the the Mike V shape by doing lipslides on a curb. Bummer cause it was a rad board, cool, cause this is the first board I've broken in like 15 years.

It's a sign, Mike V shapes are no good.

Currently trying to decide between spitfire 80hds and oj keyframesfor my new cruiser... thoughts between the two? I live on top of a hill and typically do some powersliding, so trying to figure out what would be best with that in mind

Check my last post in the wheels thread. It will tell you everything you need to know about 80hds.

Super good man. Much better than you'd think.
The flick is a little weird at first, its way grippy but once broken in they skate like a charm. The insole is also way thicker than you'd think. Much comfier than Vans, for example. Only downside to them is they're expensive. But I feel that they're worth it overall.

Here's a picture of my cruiser I just got a week ago, in front of the fountain in the reforma in Mexico City. Got pretty lost and I was skating around the city for a couple hours and I'm glad I had this. It would suck if I just had my setup with tiny ass lil hard spitfires.
The setup:
Tired 8.75 golf board
Thunder 149 II raw trucks
OJ Hot Juice wheels 60mm (wish the shop had non-mismatched sets.)
Spitfire Classics bearings (not completely sure, they might be burners. Whichever ones have blue shields.)
Shorty's plain bolts
Two soft 1/8 riser pads per truck (sector 9 I think :/ )

Coming into this thread makes me realize I need to set up my cruiser. I've had the board for about a year now. Haha

The new daily commuter:



Welcome Miller w/mob m-80
ACE 55s w/88a indy aftermarket bushings and magnesium plates
60mm Bones ATFs / Andale 7s
1/8" indy shock pads
1" Indy bolts

You can just barely see the edges of the wheels due to how much the board tapers.

I made it at a consproject in toronto. I think it is just like the create a skate wood. the concave and wheelbase and stuff was already pre-cut out so it was just the shape, graphic, and grip that I really did. The wheels were from an old cruiser I had. They are the 80hd's and I bought them off so-cal in like 2012. Nice wheels.

Any of you guys try the OJ Mini Hot Juice wheels?

Found an old blood wizard cruiser in a closet and was gonna set it up with some old 109s i have laying around, hoping the OJ's would cut down on the magic carpet effect

I had bad luck with them. I put 55mm Hot Juice on my kid's cruiser and they are fine for her but I like to carve around and really dig them in... Anyway, they crack and split pretty easily. I'd recommend the Ricta clouds or another regular shaped wheel. The 86as are really nice.

Yeah, are they the 56mm clear orange ones which have straight edges (70's style)? If so, I would not buy them, I had a set but the urethane was crappy nearly all of the wheels cracked/split around the edges. Chunks broke off.

The keyframe wheels are way better. Smoother and with more bounce to them.

The little doodies round orange like wheels look fun...

That looks really nice. Are you rocking soft wheels? They look small.
