8.38" eagle
Ace baseplates, stage 7 hangers, Kreper pins
1/8" Ace risers
NFG squares 54mm
Swiss bearings

[close]

Interesting... why the Aceplates with Indy stage 7 hangers? Wouldn't the Stage 7 plates worked better for inverted kingpins since you could just jam the nut in those with no need for JB Weld or anything that you would need on Ace baseplates?
Love the detail on the nose stickers lol

Thanks man! I am indeed Ace dependent.

I sent an email to Tactics asking about their 7.5 and 7.625 dimensions and they're way too small. I've been curious about skate warehouse though. They have a 7.62x31.4 that looks interesting but I can't find any dimensions or woodshop info on them

SoCal has prime blanks in the sub-8 range, and I think Chapman might have some too

That's sick! I'm on a 7.875 right now, but am considering sizing down a little more. Only hesitating since some grinds are a little hard to lock in for me on a sub 8inch truck

Man I am the opposite, the narrower the truck the easier the lock in. I was even thinking of randomly setting up a 7.8 or 8 with Venture Lows for nostalgias sake because I loved the pinch and pop.

I love everything about this setup, pop, feel, sound, visual when looking down, not worrying about direction; literally zero madness when skating, everything just works.

Thank you bro. I don't usually ride colorful wheels but these just look so good to me especially with the orange on the board. I look forward to skating this setup and seeing what it feels like.

Thanks. I started doing it that way to prevent grip thumb and reduce the amount of grip I need to cut, but I love the way looks too. Now if only I could skate as tough as my grip tape looks...

Wanted to change things up. Set up a Christmas complete and turned my old board into a whacky one

Lotties 8.25
ACE AF1 44’s
OJ EZ Edge 54’s
Bones Super Swiss 6


Same 8.1 eagle with 33’s, but this time with some bigass 65mm 95am Brand-X-Toxic swirl wheels. They make the board look like a cartoon board

Damn you put in work on those Aces. Also those are the skinniest 60mm+ wheels I’ve ever seen. How does it feel to skate those?
