how old is that board like 2009?

[HFS40000]

haha I think it was 2015-16, bought it on one of those skatewarehouse deals a few months ago, but I had other boards to get through before I set it up. 

[Jordick]

my bad thought it was one of these

Bought my 3rd one of these.

looks like a beast, how's it skate?
I've got the cat's blood/ miller board and that 32.88 took me a while to get used to

It skates amazing. That longer wheelbase is something else but in the end it's worth it.
Something about the tail makes it not seem like that big of a board to me. Although flipping anything
on this bastard takes a little more effort and love.    This fucker arrived today and I'm already
thinking about buying another to put away.

What duro clouds you rocking jc and how are you liking them?

What duro clouds you rocking jc and how are you liking them?

I'm currently riding the red/white 86a duro. I was going to buy another set of OJ keyframes but I felt like getting something different. Think it was somewhere around 2003 that I last rode some rictas. I still have that set of rictas too, they're like 44mm. These wheels are perfect for any terrain and they're not quite heavy enough that I struggle with my flip tricks. If you're looking for a great all around wheel these can definitely hang with the likes of softer wheels not meant for real technical skating.  

[Roisto]

Cool. I thought the 86A didn't come in 54 mm though. I've been relatively happy with my 54 mm 87A Keyframes. Interested in trying all the Clouds though. I got a set of 78A 60 mm ones for a cruiser set up for when my leg heals enough that I can go rolling. Haven't used them once, so I have no idea how they're like. Also interested in the 92As. If they'd be a decent compromise between hard and soft wheels. 

How are the 86As compared to Keyframes? I'd think pretty much the same, but I'm interested in hearing if there are any differences.

I fucked up the info when I added my setup, I forgot the wheels were 53. Fixed it though. I would say the keyframes are still better I can't explain it but they're about 10% smoother for me. The keyframes went to down about 50mm so they're on my street scumco board now. Both both wheels are amazing in every way imaginable. I'm 31 now so I'm not really kick flipping down anything bigger than me anywhere so they're swell enough for me. I have some spitfires on my other street board but something about the keyframes and ricta clouds that make me happy. I'd say get some ricta clouds on  sale and put em' away. Pretty sure you'd love them on your cruiser/filmer board as well.

been skating the ishod twin tail shape and surprisingly really enjoying it, but would love to find an 8.5 twin tail.
would appreciate recommendations if anyone knows of any.

[fur lined sea]

After skating a Northern Co last month, I couldn't wait to get back on another South Central board. The yellow stain on top and underneath is the cherry on top.
