Do you do toe or heel side with the one rail set up? I've asked before and they said toe but I was wondering if that was a universal thing.
[close]
it's a sticker, so it's purely aesthetic.  Nonfunctional, might even slow down the slides.  But the times that I have used a legit single rail, it was always toe side.
Hahaha I thought thats just what Heroin called its rails. Got me. Thanks for the response. The uneven slide on the toe might fuck me up but im bored enough right now to maybe try it on a set up.

Try it!

I use one rail a lot. You get more slide on stuff that’s not super waxed (like the coping at the mini I skate 70% of the time) but more control than two rails which are often super slick on anything metal or waxed. In some ways the board is more stable in a slide with one or two rails as you get less effect from the concave rotating under you if your weight is slightly off if that makes sense?

Can help to lock into feebles too

I should know better than to have put it on the board but it’s a DBZ graphic, so there’s not much else I could do to make it better. Lol can I chalk it up to quarantine making me crazy or is it just poor taste here?    Haha

Thanks !  Honestly, this board trips me out.  It’s so wide and steep but the wheelbase is so short.  I can’t get the timing of it for flatground but I get a ton of pop.

You will continue to explain your insolence as long as necessary.  What made you do it?  Are you some kind of psychopath?  Or is it a cry for help?  Because clearly something isn’t right. 
When nothing in society deserves respect, we should fashion for ourselves in solitude new silent loyalties.

lucky! the spitfire bighead is mandatory on the setup (unless I can’t find them)
This has me cracking up, what exactly does Black Flag have to do with measuring your dick starting behind ya nuts?

Skateboarding is nothing but a game to find the right fits to appear like you're a proportional human being instead of a midget or a giant.

Forgive me father, for I have sinned. The 12 year old in me loved that reds sticker, so a cry for help 14 years later to go back to better days amidst this quarantine might be it..

Ordered this deck from cowtown for my birthday. It’s hard for me to find a primitive graphic I actually like .

8.1 primitive
Venture 5.6 Hi with riptides and supercush bushings
53mm f4 tablets 99a
Swiss six

Got a nice rolled ankle today so guess it’s going to be a little before I get another session on it

Lol. Eldee is definitely a human. He’s like a raider on horse back who’s kinda scared to do battle. Somehow he closes his eyes and swings his sword wildly and wakes up in a pile of dead orcs.

Nice one! For me ace 44 are great on 8.5. I've even reduced the number of washers on the inside of wheels from 3 - 1.
Been thinking about trying a quasi but again went with what I know and ordered another krooked 8.5

thanks! was actually debating putting washers in but maybe i will give it a spin without.

you should try one! tbh Bledsoe has my favorite shape. the dimensions arent super wild, and if youre into longer wheelbases his usually fits the bill. The Bledsoe and Davis are loong compared to the others.
