Been on a couple decks since I last posted.

Sour 8.18 x 32 14.2 wb
Thunder 148 Ti
Spitfire F4 Classic 52
Swiss

Nice shape, however the board itself felt heavy. Didn't have much time to get used to it though as it got ran over by a car  :'(

The other one is
Polar 8.125 x 32 14.25 wb
Indy 144 Ti (I liked it better on Thunders)
Spitfire F4 Classic 52
Swiss

New one, going to test it out tomorrow and I have a good feeling about this one.

Polar 8.25 x 31.875 14.125 wb
Thunder 148 Ti
Spitfire F4 Classic 52 101a
Swiss

Seemed a bit bigger than what I'm used to, but I guess the smaller wheelbase should make it feel just right. If not will try switching to Indy 144 Ti

Thanks. Pretty cool to see these go into production after seeing all the custom one-offs on this thread. I’m looking forward to future drops from Losers and happy to support a slap pal.

first post after lurking a while, heres my current setup and new cruiser freshly assembled.



Enjoi Judkins 8.125
Thunder 148 Standard
Spitfire BDK Conical 54mm
Mini Logo Bearings w/ shields popped
Thunder hardware

Polar Grund 1991 Shape
Ace 44
OJ Super Juice 60mm
Shake Junt Triple OG bearings (?)
1in Hardware and 1/8in risers

The risers are just enough clearance for regular skating and odd manoeuvre with the 60mm wheels but whenever I go full speed it feels like i'm toeing the line of a deathly wheelbite. Its lots of fun.

I feel like I always see someone looking for a Quasi Proto, but can never find one.  Paradeworld has one and I wasn't sure where to post to let people know, so here I am...

Legit question: what makes the Quasi Proto different/special?

I'm riding a Quasi and love it – I have two more ready to skate. But I don't know anything about the proto decks.

Passport 8.6 x 32.19 (not sure the wb)
Conical Full 99a 55 worn to 53ish
Ace44
Mob
Swiss6
Blazers

This is the biggest board I’ve ever skated and coming from the 8.5 classic eagle shape, it feels way more full. The extra space on the nose feels really great for nollie and switch heels. I was also worried about the 44’s being too magic-carpet-y but they feel and look fine. I’m excited for the 8.5 Aces that are supposed to be coming soon.

blockhead hardtimes
Ace 44 with Bender hardware
Snot colored Formula four 54 conicals with bones big balls

I’m deducting points for a slight magic carpet ride- the deck is just  under 8.8 at front and around 8.5 at back truck.

It's the FA/Hockey shape (wide steep nose with small tail)

Wait, you can’t fit spacers in teardrop shaped loopholes? They fit fine in the v-shape conicals.

Yeah.

I'm going to try another set I got but the ones in my old spit cones they fall in and rattle.

weird that would vary shape to shape . @Banned from the room mentioned that on the teardrop shape yeah
[close]

I’m running spacers in 54mm teardrop shape with no issues.

Damn I got bad luck 😑.

It's good news. I'm going to keep buying loopholes. It will be fine next time.

I was thinking of putting a speed ring in there too so it makes contact. It's easier than looking for a slightly bigger one.
