Hockey 8.5 shape #2 ( didn’t think to get a photo til after I skated some.)
Venture 5.8 Ted barrow cast hollows
92a blue Indy top and stock bottom. Probably will change it to 92a Indy bottom next time. But this session with just the top felt like how it did with just stocks but going from 2 or 3 threads showing to 1 if that.
Spitfire F4 conical regs (out side edge rounded with a grinder)
Bones big balls. I don’t love them. Gonna get new bearings soon I think.
Random bolts.


Nike brsb gumps. Good shoe. Really like it but I can’t stop breaking the laces. So I have a blue lace in the other which is why it’s not pictured. I’m regular footed

I really like the shape. I know it’s more of a regular shape but it feels so good. Maybe that’s because I. Coming off a regular hockey board with the steep kicks. But I’m really enjoying it.

Agreed. I've had that shape a few times and it's a lot of fun. I have the bigger "wicked queen" shape hanging up but haven't skated it yet. Ordered a zig zagger to fight the temptation.

Ain’t that a rather long wheelbase for short kings ? Or is everything I know about wheelbase a lie ?

It’s long. 8.5 x 14.25wb (and under) is my preference.

I made a mistake and measured poorly, it’s actually 14”.

Something different




Grosso nooner shape with the WB redrilled down to 13.8. Sparkly Pepper grip and clear jessup ultra combo
Thunder team hollows. Changed out my old bushings. Still convinced that the red 90a’s are the softest out of all of the thunder bushings
55mm radials flipped around for evening out the cone
QBSs fusions
Real wood risers
Sneakerhead dunks



Haven’t skated a shaped board as my main setup in a longtime. Maybe I’ll love it or maybe I’ll hate it. The risers are for one trick in particular that I kept wheelbiting on trying to pop out. They might not work out for me and it’s obviously my technique
fuck you bama

great setup 🔥🔥🔥

Slowly getting a bunch of tricks back that I thought I had lost for good a long while ago and I have not felt this consistent on a setup in ages. This thing has re-ignited the fire for sure after 2 years of setup madness where I hated everything I was on after the first session.

Looking like Peter Hewitt sitting on that feeble. You must be comfy on that set up.

I'm not worthy of the comparison, but I appreciate the compliment hahaha

Been an 8.5 guy for as long as i can remember. I like the size of this deck. Been skating a DOA the past month or so and it was ill but this thing is like 1/2 the weight, or feels like it anyways. Real responsive set up for this east coast trip

    It wouldn't work well with 144's/8.25" axle.

    I'm running 66's /9" axle on it and it still has a "hoverboard" kind of vibe and you barely see axle nuts for the rear truck when looking down. It's 9.81" at the widest point, 8.875" over the rear truck & 9.5" over the front truck.[/list]
