For my next deck I'm cop the Mason Silva full SE. I reckon that will make these 5.2s really come alive. It's 8.06 x 31.5 with 14 WB

Just had my first flat ground sesh on these. Love them already. So much more stable. From the first pop shove I knew it was on. They turn pretty dam good for first session too. Does the worrest model have different bushings maybe? These are clear yellow.

The tail became way too short and I could not get my board to snap against the ground. Discounting the fact it was a dwindle board, the setup just wasn't working for me at that length.

Thankfully the tail is a decent length for that deck length. I think it’s 6.5?

Width 7.75”Length 31.25”Wheelbase 13.8”They work so well. Kickflips and tre flips are a dream. I don't know what is affecting the difference from the megenta 14.25wb but they handle even better

Does anyone here ride their Ventures rattly loose? If so, what bushing combination are you on? I rode independents for a long time and always had a bones medium on the bottom and Indy low bushing on the top so I could keep them real loose without losing the kingpin nut but that combination doesn’t seem to work as well with Ventures. I had a problem with the pivot cup being super tight too but fixed that by sanding out the pivot cups a bit.
i need a break from this thread dawg. knowledge doesnt feel like power anymore

Appreciate it dude, I’m gonna give the stock bushings another session and see how they go. Maybe sand down the top bushing a little bit and see if that gives me a little more room for rattling without messing up the geometry.

Going to grab the ti 5.6 this weekend. Haven’t been able to find the non prod ones though which is a little of a bummer since I generally don’t like any logos on my hangar. That being said I probably will be too lazy to remove it
