Spitfire F4 classics 50mm
Bones Reds big balls
Heroin useless rail sticker

Peep my setup on the previous page - great minds think alike!

Always a fan of your setups.

Love Spitfire to death but those big flame stickers are on some flameboy shit in my opinion.

55s with 50s always look so good.

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.

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..

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.
