Back on the loveseat this morning..such a fun shape.
Even more fun with 6.1 lites and risers. It's gonna take severe madness to stray from this setup.

[shawngreg]

^looks awesome dude, probably a ton of fun.  i've been getting more and more interested in those bigger shapes.  whats the main difference between the couch and the loveseat?

It's a fun one for sure..if I have a little spare $ I try to keep one on ice for when I'm getting frustrated with my "skating"

Sorry for playing necromancer but if you still have this could I get some measurements? Got a blank pressed by a friend and want to keep the basic dims somewhere near the real thing.
Thanks.

Recent madness caused me to put together the biggest popsicle I’ve ever had. Skating a Cafe 8.25 and it just felt too small. Also wanted an excuse to try loopholes. Got the Crocketts on clearance from the vans website, even copped a second pair of the ‘incense’ colourway as theyve dropped even lower in price now.

Nice setup  Where did you find Manderaon SFWs in F4? One of my favorite wheels but only ever seen them in classic spitfire urethane.

Thanks, sorry I wrong, My Bad, you're right buddy. it turns out this is a urethane classic.sorry about that. I found it at one of the local skateshops here. Condition is NOS, slightly yellowed on some sides but not a problem. they still have some hidden gems. like indy black bearings (coincidentally, it's hard to find in the country I live in, Indonesia)

Thanks. The Indys have the forged baseplates so they're lower than the standards and with the 3ply Real risers it bumps the axle height up to 56-57mm and it feels fucking crazy. Lots of ghost pop on the tail and a bit less off the nose but zero wheelbite. I'm not sure how long its takes to adjust to risers but I'm hoping to make it work.

This is my second 9" Polar popsicle, as I really liked the wheelbase.

Thank you @maggot cunt

That tail looks huuuuuuuuge!!!!

This board looks great for shuvit tricks. I can’t imagine doing a 360 flip on this thing but I don’t really do those anymore—old legs lack coordination...

What are the measurements for the 8.25 eagle?
And take it easy with the recovery.
