I’m curious about your huffer setups.
I haven’t got one yet, because I’m lacking in skill to simply break my current boards.
I have the stuff to make Indy159 and 169 in either cast or forged height. And I have 54 and 56mm wheels on hand.
Does anyone ride thunder 151/161 or venture 6.1s with risers?
Could probably pull off 6.1s without risers and 53/54mm wheels.
Do you guys prefer a slight magic carpet on these, or hot rodding slightly with 9/9.125” trucks?
I've used 8.5" to 9" axles.I think 8.75" axles (so Af1 60, 159, 151, 6.1 etc) fit the best and I usually use AF1 60s but there is something magic about Ace Classic 55s on a Huffer that I need to tap back into soon.
Wheels, I've ridden 49mm (really fun for a BPSW era times) up to 60mm. Anything over 54 and I almost always use an 1/8" riser. My go to wheel sizes for the Huffer are 54 to 56mm but def like a Classic 58mm for bigger bowls- works great. If I was going to ride a vert ramp, I'd go Thunder 161 with 58mm classic whees for sure. But that would be the only time I'd ride trucks bigger than 9" on a Huffer. I don't like Hot rodding the Huff too much.
My current Huffers: 1) All purpose Huffer with AF1 60s, worn down 55mm locking F4s and 2) big transition Huffer, Ace Classic 55s and 58mm Classic F4s. Both set ups have 1/8" risers.
Next up is my Hillbomb TechSlide Huffer... Thunder 181s and some Spitfire 93a Radial 58mms.
