The Set-up Thread

Set up a Powell-Peralta Flight Deck for parks/bowls when it warms up here. It's the 9.05/shape 246. Mainly got it for the 15.0 wheelbase and it's an always in stock shape with them so I can settle into a non-rotating setup. Consistency and availability is an issue with some of the shaped decks I've been riding. I'll probably step down to the the Chinese 7-ply shape 246 when this is done, depending on how it skates.

Other specs:

• 60mm Bones 84b
• Swiss w/spacers
• Indy 169s, stock bushings
• 1/4 Pigs risers
• 1 - 1/4 shortys hardware
• Sanded down Jessup

That's a beautiful graphic.

I know this is more of a gear pron thread, but is it weird to roll around with say three setups in the whip?

If I'm driving, I'll often bring my second mostly ignored complete or my cruiser, since I already have it and it has been useful on a number of occasions.

I sure hope not….

I do this all the time. I must say that some people at the skate park think it's weird, but I enjoy variety in my life. Plus, it's simply fact that my flatground setup isn't going to skate transition as well as my transition setup which isn't going to skate ledges as well as my slightly larger flatground setup

I'm currently rolling with a dozen, so I'll say no.

I ride around with a flatbar in the whip.

I have also been doing this as of late hahah. It doesn't collapse so the only way I can fit it in my civic is diagonally from the back left seat and the front passenger seat over the center console

[somedudefromnj]

Thanks fellas. My homies constantly make me feel weird about it, until one breaks and im not rushing to the shop for a replacement

this entire statement is literally me.

But here's my current setup:
FA from that sale. 8.25
Ace classics 44
OJ Nomads
Indy Bearings
Indy Hardware



Really feeling the nomads lately. This deck is a huge awakening to the fact that I've been skating flat boards the last few years

Second. I have my cruiser, my curb/street board, and my pool board with me. Variety is a spice of life.

I drive a hatchback and have to drive with my flatbar like this as well. Mostly though I have a rotation of boards in addition to my main setup, my pad bag for big ramps, and all my spot fixing tools; mini shovel, leaf blower, angle grinder, clear coat, bondo, etc.

Sounds like you need a utility van. I've been wanting to get one myself for various projects

I personally don't know if I could/would want to skate more than one set-up at a time but I don't see why you shouldn't. I also can't drive so that might be a factor.....

I have an everyday street set up and a wild hair transition setup that gets used once or twice a month

Everyday setup.                                                       Transition

Tensor Raws w/92a doh doh bushings.        2004 Fury aarto trucks
54mm OG pig "naturals" wheels.                          56mm SF Classics
Oust moc 7 bearings.                                             Mini logo bearings
Pig copper bolts.                                                  Shorty's Silverados
Black Jessup                                                          black magic grip

[close]

I can't tell if this a joke or not due to these setups coming straight out of 2005

Why would it be  a fucking joke? I skate what I want to skate and what's comfortable to me. Does everyone need to skate FA decks with 149 Indy's and formula 4s? I've been skating since 2002 and I found what works for me.  Jesus Christ.

[231st Street]

Current "daily rider" (deck replacing same broken deck in last week).  8.75 alien, broken in Indys with random bushing cups included, 56 F4 classics worn down, bones Swiss  never cleaned.

Because there rules here. You broke the rules that’s these kooks make up. But don’t worry skate what you like & keep posting. You can’t skate what works for you. You have to have gear madness.

How dare you! Pig worked hard to make the prime formula and you’re missing out on the quality wheels they put out. They’re actually pretty good and I hope you get the chance to skate them.

How are the Oust bearings?

They're Oust-anding!

I recently had a roll on some really old Arto Saari Fury trucks. They were really small (below 8") but I liked the turn.

Skate the stuff you like (except for Braille and Cariuma).

A friend bought fury from decathlon 2 years ago and they felt good, the turn well, they grind and have mid height, the only down side is the ugly hanger (and that the brand is not hot, but fuck it, they cost only 35 euros and i wouldnt mind riding them if i am on a budget)
