ATGs:
Mag lites are stupid light. They grind amazing and don't wear down as fast as people would have you believe. Yes, it will grind down faster than standard aluminum but mainly because you are grinding fucking everything
Your will see gainz in your slappy game.
They feel like thunders but with more carve/less twitch, push out the WB like a Thunder. They are also taller than Thunders so less wheelbite. Normal baseplate so you won't be rubbing your wheels. They fit somewhere between a Thunder and an Indy. Really responsive trucks.
Stock top washer WILL bind, remove it or swap for a bones washer if you stay with stock bushings.
Stock bushings are 90a but feel harder; I swapped them for Bones mediums (no washers) and the turn is much better. Didn't notice the lack of the tensor top washer with the 'interlocking' design at all. Bones always snap back to center.
FWIW, I use the black bones bushings as I find them to be a tad bit softer than the white ones.
I just picked up a set of 8" ATG mags to drop down in size (Been riding 8.25" ATGs) (I was fighting trying to like Ventures but kept coming back to the ATGs; DM me if anyone is interested in some 5.6 Hollows, stock).
Did I mentioned how crazy light they are? How responsive?
