So so sick!  Platipus is one of the raddest things out there.

Let me be the first to say I applaud your effort, you have done the right thing.
Secondly I personally will never forget, as I begin and end every single day with praise and worship to these photos. I have found that I have become a better man in general, my skating has dramatically improved, and I have found a substantial gain in penis size (both length and girth). I strongly suggest following my regimen.

Hallelujah.. Amen to that brother..

To be honest.. I have never ran ventures on the forged so i don’t really know

440s got a little time in today but they are next in line after my foys

cruiser or main setup?
[close]

Somewhere in between, it’ll probably see hills, parks and crust the most, aside from when I just wanna switch it up. I have a Black Label with Keyframes as my designated cruiser, it’s way smoother but this setup is way more nimble. Took it to some big windy hills yesterday, fun times.
oh, that reminds me, I need to set mine up! It won’t be my main board but not a 100% cruiser either; somewhere in between ...

Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year

Just discovered this dope thread, I love reading this shit.



Second board is my main setup (not much of a slides kind of guy, I only fuck with grinds nowadays):

Quasi/Mother Tyler Bledsoe 8.25"
Thunder Titanium Miles Silvas 147mm
Wayward Wheels Tyler Bledsoe 53mm
Shake Junt Bryan Herman hardware
Bronson G2

Extremely hyped about my new cruisers. The 9.05" Winkowski in center will be used as a transition/miniramp board or as a cruiser depending on the wheels I put on. The 10.34" Winkowski on the far right rides pretty bad though... the shape makes it tilt too easily because those indy's aren't wide enough compared to the belly. Probably gonna end up using a 8.5" popsicle with those trucks and risers cause I'm also having a hard time getting used to the unique concave, steep tail and overall shape.

How’s the Drkrm?
I only skate prime numbers, so it's either 53s or 59s, feast or famine

Those 2 on the right look really good. The type of board I'd get all hype about setting up and then never ride. The one in the middle playing mind tricks on me with the floor

Wow, this might be the one right here. I had a couple flatground sessions last week and loved it and then I took it to the park this morning and it felt great on the ledges too.

Thanks! haha yeah the first tail scrapes are tough but I'm all about riding them and maybe even convert some casual longboarder friends to cruisers.

How’s the Drkrm?

Very unique football shape (for me at least), still getting used to it but I'm digging the ride so far. Seems like quality wood! Also, those Aces 66 are a bit wider than I'd like but they turn amazingly well.

First post, hopefully the photos come out okay (They didn't come out and I can't figure out how to post photos, can somebody dm me a forum post on how to do it or instructions. I've been struggling with it for a while.)

8.62 Anti-Hero Eagle deck
149mm Independent trucks (Super hard black bushings from Indy)
60mm spitfire classics
Spitefire cheap shots with shields popped out
Assortment of hardware

The other deck is a polar 8.6 Paul Grund, which I sometimes set up because I want something different.
I really hope this world is just a simulation, because I wasted my first life by not skating more...

Either attach the image file to your post, or upload the image to another website (ie imgur) and use the [ img][/img] tags. Add "width=[insert number]" between the first img and end bracket to resize the image.

Here's an example, you can quote my post to see the tags.

 "width=[insert number]" what number is good for resizing photos to the forum? How should the code look?
Also thank you for your help.

They feel like the 103a rictas, so that’s probably bad sign for everyone except me. Rock hard and fast. Although I skated a ledge on brick ground today and definitely felt a slow down. Sounds like you may want to try the bones easy street v3 54s.
