this is literally the best graphic of any company so far this year

[close]

Bold statement

The truth is sometimes bold. Best skater, best graphic, best company, best setup hands down none of this hipster bullshit with ms paint graphics. I’m getting wheel rub like crazy though on my tensor lows with 59mm wheels. Should I buy some 4 inch risers? I dunno what to do. Do you know any brands who sell coloured 4inch risers? Maybe like anodized or CNCd? I don’t mind spending a couple bills if they are good risers

I have a small hand sander, took about 5 min.

Looks good, what'd you reseal it with?

144p · « **Reply #17737 on:** February 03, 2018, 03:22:59 PM »

I just clear coated it with some stuff i had for curbs.
Seems ok, it's made for ceramics stuff though.

Currently skating

Real walker full se 8.38
Krux 8.5 with bones medium bushings
Spitfire conical 54
Mob grip
Shorty's 7/8
Modus abec 7 with the shields popped

My next board will be real full 8.38 the normal one, even if I'm 5'7 I feel this is too short.

Which truck should I pair it with, thunder team hollow 148 or indy forged hollow 144?

Ps I'm kinda comfortable in transition (something like, since I've no parks around), but I'm really struggling to learn flip tricks, like kickflip and heelflip.

Northern Co 8.75"/ Ace 55s/ 60mm F499s
Krooked 9.25"/ Indy 159s/ F4 99s prob about 53mm now
Polar 8.5"/ Ace 44s/ 54mm F4s.

The polar looks wider than the 9.25 krooked lol

I've skated an 8.38 full on forged hollow indy 149s and really liked it, just my two cents.

I hear those boards will self destruct if you use phillips bolts, allen only.

Hercules Rockefeller · « **Reply #17756 on:** February 05, 2018, 12:40:42 PM »

i`ll never understand phillips bolts. it makes every skateboard look like a toy to me. (yeah, sure, its a toy, but i hope you get it.)

I think I read that the first run is through clutch mfg but soon they will be using south central
As for this deck the wood is pretty decent. Sent it into a pole and it didn’t chip.
