Good! They're CU so same stuff as satori/dialtone/speedlab/jivaro/orbs/prize fighter cutlery etc. They're 101a but CU wheels sometimes feel a bit soft so my first impression is that they kind of ride like a spitfire classic 99a but aren't as sticky and slide better. That might change as they break in, I imagine they'll probably get a little slicker and easier to break free once the grooves are gone. 51mm conical seems like a really good fit for these trucks too.

I’ve always found 917 to be cool, but I do like to know the dimensions of a board.

Was swapping to a DLK worth the effort? Trying to hammer the kingpin out seems like more effort than I'm willing to commit.

This ones an anomaly for me. I don’t like the squared off PS Stix shapes that are popular nowadays. I haven’t really liked PS boards in general since the original Alien ended. I also don’t like boards with more wood stain than graphic. A friend gave me a few WKND boards to skate and I’m appreciative for that

I don’t think it is TBH probably won’t do it again. You don’t hang up on smiths, but then the balance point is gone too so my nose on bs smiths fall to the ground a lot of times. Hard to explain but it’s trading one problem for another, and plus it’s a whole ordeal to install them.

7.9 dwindle flat shape, like real flat
ace 33
bones swiss
spitfire 52mm
compulsive doodle grip

took it my local secret covid curb a couple times this past weekend (pics from before) to skate some flatground. took a sec to get used to how flat it is.

anyone else ride ace 33's? if so what size board are you riding?
[close]

Cool Pezo, pleasing board to look at.
Thanks! It was kinda fun to skate but ultimately too flat.
Got some Pezo stickers with a DFW zine and the board needed some life added to it

Thunder 148s with the Thunder 95a medium bushings
Shortys Hardware 7/8 phillips
Spitfire Cheapshots
DC Legacy 98 Slims
It's crazy but I used to be all about the all about the AWS 8.25s with the square nose and deep concave. Got the Baker board which is a complete opposite and I fucking love it. I find it that the mellow concave makes it more friendly to learn and land flatground shit. I have learned so much shit in this board (not only flat) I'm definitely a mellow concave pointy board dude now.

Set up a curb cruise board

Re - Issued Rudy Blind board. Have no idea what measurements.

Thunder 149ers with Bones bushings, Bones reds, classic spitfire 50mm.

Need wider trucks?

Nice!  Yeah, either 159's or some wider wheels would probably look a little more balanced.  Works, though!
