so, hope this is the right thread, since i'm new to this...
current setups – got two, since work + wife are in different countrys – are 8.25 FA decks with indys, one is with 149 forged hollows (on a 14.8 wb) and i'm really happy with that, the other got 144 standards on it (on a 14.12). i really prefer the lower height and lighter weight of the forged hollows, get quite a bit of ghost pop on the standard ones just after switching boards and it's just more work to get on ledges. maybe this isn't just because of the weight/height, but also because the standard ones are on a much shorter wheelbase, but i really don't have any knowledge regarding this, just feeling.
since i heard a ton of good stuff about venture his, i'm thinking about trying their hollow ones, i never got the chance to really try them (almost all thunder around here), so any input is much appreciated. especially since i'm planning on going down in board sizes (to 8.12 or 8 ) and the shapes i like have some short wheelbases. also, ventures are a lot cheaper in europe...
thanks already. if this is the wrong thread, just tell me to f_ off and i'll head out.
edit: since the wb-thing seemed fishy to me, i measured it for the first time myself, not trusting the shop measurements anymore and they are both 14.12.
