ATTN: Finland :-*





Bought the two slicks for the wall, the stabbing is for my friend and the spaceman is for myself.

I'm about to set the one in the middle up.

They do. And sadly they seem to be the most common bolts in many shops around here. Allen all the way for me, but I'll rather take philips than these.

Randoms are still around, because who doesn't want to pound bolts out of a board once it's done

Been using a set for a year and a half, no problems but they were the only 7/8 silver hardware I found recently

Mine stripped right away, I don't think I'll use combi bolts again unless I really don't have a choice. So gross looking too

Picked up a pair of Plus Reserve bolts and they're the same thing. Not sure if these also have the problem they have where the bolts stick out and you have to force them into the deck.
Nothing I do deserves more than an iphone camera.

Decided to actually try giving bearing maintenance a try rather than just buying new ones whenever they get bad. Was actually very satisfying and it's made a big difference!

I have this homie who cleans his set of Swiss atleast once in a month, he takes them fully apart, like removing cages and cleaning every ball manually... He's been been riding that same set for years and years now...

I do it when it's already too late. I've normally cracked a cage or something before I remember to clean them.

I changed wheels recently and saw some rust on my accels so rinsed my bearings - taking the cages in and out is annoying so just take the shields off- rinse the bearings in acetone, dry em well and then rub the shields clean with rubbing alc. so worth it for swiss's


Here's the shit i got recently.




not the most ergonomic but saves a ton of space to take with me on the go- if i need to tighten some bolts during a sesh its nice. Not practical to setup a board with though.




So for the f4's ive tried classics, classic slims, classic wides, conical full and now these radial silms. so far there pretty awesome. probably will revert back to the classics as always though haha wanted to give these a go after seeing a few of you PALs posting em on the set up thread.






had a cheap clip on fish eye. a homie of mine gifted me the VX handle made by death lens so i figured i'd get this. HUGE difference in quality.

I'm sure there's more cost effective ways to go about it, but this thing along with acetone and speed cream literally brought my Swiss 6 back from the dead.  I got over eager to skate during the spring thaw here in MI and one of the bank spots I regularly skate had a bit of ice with a ton of water trapped beneath on the lip of the bank.  After that session my wheels were literally seizing up.  Bought the cleaning kit, speed cream, and acetone and I'm good as new.  Way less cost than a new set of swiss too.  I suggest just taking the shields off though.

2 sets of bones swiss... spending that much on bearings was hard to do hopefully they are worth it.

A little late to the party but i finally got my hands on this one, Was thinking about making it a cruiser but the graphic is too sick. Might just go ahead and make it a wall board.

I really wanted to snag that when it came out and get a big setup going, but collectors and newfound BA fans snatched them all up. I just wanted a good shape. Now I don't care anymore THANKS EVERYBODY

The new one with the vest is a cool graphic, but that shape is super fun. I'm on my second one and would highly recommend it to anyone. I run 159s on it and it's a blast.
Man the long board truck thing killed indy for me. I was willing to set aside the racism, but long boarding, gtfo... - DH

Second that, except with 169s. Skating the vest shape now.
