Did some of my favorite skating of 2023 on this setup:

Quasi Dick Rizzo 8.125”
Ace AF1 Low 33s with Ace Low Hard Bushings (the hard bushings made all the difference)
Spitfire 52mm F4 Classics (worn down to like 49mm at that point)
Shieldless Swiss
Bronze Allen hardware

Fastbreaks

Also shoutout Dick Rizzo for having an excellent 2023

If I had a skate spot like that near me I’d never come back home.

8.38" Primitive
Thunder Team
Spitfire Classic (Full) ~52mm
Trying this time with the bronson bearings instead but I used the Primitive Bearings in the June - January setup and they are lasting completely fine they still spin great. But I haven't put them through really any mud or water at all.

I don’t know where the pic went but

8.18 krooked Brad Cromer “quarter” full shape(unfortunately not SE) 14.25 or 14.38 wb, last I measured I think 14.38
W/MOB

144 Indy mids standard stock orange bushings

Diamond Philips 1in hardware

I think I had 52mm formula fours but I switch between bones and spitfire so much depending on how I feel I can’t remember for the life of me, but I’m sure they were classic shape formula four 101 cause I was real hyped on those how hard and fast they were

Modus blues or titanium’s shields on cause everyone says it’s stupid to pop the shields

The full shape, square ish nose and tail made it easy to do everything, the Indy’s were just right height and tightness, and the rest is just nice but I was throwing kickflips like I’m in my prime again and even hard flips and tre flips were tapping in to my muscle memory. The universe was just right. Then madness set in.
yes
