Looking fine! The shape looks great and wheel wells are always a plus

Set this up because my Dane1 got ran over

Madness 10” 31.6 14.5wb (double drilled for 15)
Ace 55
Slime balls 56mm 97a
Swiss 6
1/4” riser
Enjoi rails

First time on slime balls as the car ruined my f4s, digging them a lot so far. Wish I got 60mm and wish I had 66’s but didn’t want to break the bank

the board really ties the room together.

Just mob. Its still a massive pain in the ass. Mini logo is good for it. I had to cut a lot of the weird bits with scissors and just try to be rough with it.

sweet, thanks for the tip. i have the same deck and i had 66s on it. i feel like your 55s fit better

sammyz · « **Reply #877 on:** March 07, 2020, 05:04:56 PM »

That madness deck looks great....reminds me of the Hawk decks from the late 80’s.

It feels great with 55's, but can get tippy occasionally, 55's are my favourite truck but keep being tempted by the 66's.

Bought an 8" popsicle and it just wasn't working for me. Then, I found this 10" Lucero Thumbhead reissue. Probably won't be doing a bunch of tre-flips on this thing, but since it's a Lucero I'm pretty sure it was made for slappies!

Black Label Lucero: 10" wide 32" long 15.5" WB. 9.6" at front and rear trucks.
Indy 169's
Bones Hard bushings
OJ Keyframes 56mm 87a (will probably throw my 59mm 98a Rainskates on there.)
1/4 inch risers
Bones Red berrings

Looks good! Get some spit conicals on there!!

Another set of conicals are def. in my future. I've got some Rainskates Yellow Jackets I use at the park, but I'll probably pick up some cruisers too. G-slides maybe.
DC wheels just look funny on big boards.

jtrpma · « **Reply #882 on:** March 11, 2020, 07:18:51 AM »

G slides are decent but very heavy and unnecessarily wide. I’d recommend key frames or acid pods

What a good looking Setup... But anything under 32 is just too short for me, I wish they made better boards.
But currently I am so happy with my Fixer PigTank boards

I think what I am riding at the moment might be the same shape as the fixer.

32.25 x 9.75 x 14.75 fancy lad Justis Walton

Such a good shape and dims.

You riding the fixer with 169s or 66s or something else?

jay_nev · « **Reply #885 on:** March 11, 2020, 11:08:23 AM »

Post up a pic of the fixer. How you liking the wood? I am intrigued by their stuff for sure.

how is the tail on that setup? looks smaller than 6.5 for sure but it could just be the thunders
btw hope you recover well from that injury, ACL tears are no joke.

Just measured it, it's between 6.25 and 6.5 from the tip of the tail to the closest bolts. The tail does feel kind of small, especially in relation to the big nose. I'm kind of tempted to ride it backwards, I tried that for a little yesterday and loved how the nose felt. Thank you! I can only cruise around right now but I can tell this board is gonna be fun.

Was looking for the orange stain one but ended with the green stain, really love this shape. Was debating between this Drehobl or the Heroin 9.25 razor popsicle.

Lots of sick setups on this page

I’m happy to see functional set ups in these sizes instead of crazy “cruiser” shapes

Anyways just wanted to jump back in and say this setup rules and feels like I’m riding a surfboard that I can Ollie

Anyone skated a brown bomber with 55s? Don't feel like buying new trucks.

Nice!
And how's the tail on this? Kinda short, right? 6.25"?

I put them on for a minute but wasn't feeling them on that board. That being said, if you put the washers on the outside you should be totally fine (with some slight hotrod). Brown bomber is 8.625" over the front and 8.5" over the back axels.

same. I tried it. It could totally work. You should do it if you don't want to buy new trucks but I think 44s fit better.
