8.25 carpet co with black magic grip. The shape is hella good.
Independent standard hollow 144, i had to take off the bottom washer for the pivot to sit in the cup properly, also so the hanger could sit correctly on the bushing. Seems like the bottom bushing was too tall.

I tried the mid indy 144  (first pic)and they just sucked. The truck wheelbites faster than thunders and venture low. Also the trucks never rebounded no matter what bushings or pivot cups i put on.
Spitfire 50s with swiss six.

Been skating dunks lately.
Really enjoying the the set up, not just adjustment from a 7.75.  Only adjustment is that my shoe catches more of my grip, so my flick makes the board float higher than im used to. So i have to jump higher than before. Also i hardly turn since im not used to skating high loose trucks coming from tight low trucks. I'll be turning lightly and forget i could turn more and catches me off guard since I'm waiting for wheelbite not a deeper turn.  ::)

I wonder if these are still hard to get. Want to get one for my daughter.

Here’s one on sale for 150 from apb Skateshop. I don’t remember it being that much but I bought mine last fall from Refuge in MI.
