Not technically for me, but stoked on them. I finished grad school last week, and I wanted to thank my two really close friends in the program for all of the help and support (and honestly, guidance) they gave me. One of them used to skate a bit and the other was always receptive when we'd chat about skating. As a lil graduation thank you, I harvested/rebuilt some of my old trucks and hardware and got some other stuff to fill in the blank.


Pink:
SkateSupply Blank (8.375)
Thunder 149 Hollow w/ new fresh bushings and hardware
Sptifire F4 Conical Full 53mm 99a
Bones Reds

Green:
SkateSupply Blank (8.25)
Thunder 148 w/ new fresh bushings
Sptifire F4 Conical Full 53mm 99a
Bones Reds

I've never really skated blanks before this, but after setting these up, I am super stoked on how they look. I have one more deck ready to go for myself but after that I might try a blank or two. They look super clean set up.

Congratulations on completing your program! That is super nice and thoughtful of you to give them to your peers.  What is the discipline are you in?

Thank you! I’m in architecture. Doing my greatest Alexis Sablone cosplay, with a significantly worse level of skating. And if anything, getting them setups is a selfish move, cuz it means they have to come skate with me at least once, haha.
