How do you like the ventures and this shape? I’m currently riding what I think is the same shape, but went with thunders (I am a big fan of this deck, not ‘magical’, but I’m not fighting it/thing are working out).
Anyways, yours looks dope

I’ve not skated this yet, but had the exact same shape for the last two months and I’m a big fan of it with ventures.

Quasi 8.5 with a 14.25 wb is definitely my favourite shape to skate.

Did they change anything about the dims for the "proto 2" model? So far it looks like its just the veneer that changed with the accent color.

Soooo (awkward), for as big of a PS Stix Stan as I can be, I’ve not had a proto, 1 or 2.
I’m on my second Glue 8.5x14.25x’32.125’. Possibly the same shape? If so, lovely. Dunno if gx also has the same shape, I’m assuming the Glue shape is the same (shipped from quasi).
I should probably size down, if the 8.25 is the same shape I’d be hyped to try that. I’ll just need to get over my weirdness about 8.25 trucks (have yet to be stoked on some).
Aaaaaanyways, Lots if nice setups being posted I’ll get out of the way

PS decks are measured differently right? What’s the length if measured the same as BBS

I've been riding 8.5 trucks on 8.25 decks since before there was any 8.25 trucks, and the one time I tried 144s back when they came out it just felt weird so I threw them in the box and kept riding 149s since. I'm already constantly switching between Indy and Thunder, I don't wanna add truck width to this madness, and most of the time I'm on 8.38 or 8.5 decks so it doesn't matter much either.

[lilboosie]

What about og aces ? I think 44 measures at 8.38 if I recall. I had those on a 8.5 for awhile.

I think others have said they come out between 31.85 - 31.95 or so measured straight across.


I had a half dozen PS boards all the same, that had 8.375 x 32.25 engraved and were more like 8.3 at front bolts, 8.25 in the middle tapering to 8.1 at the back truck x 31.88 in length.

[cosmicgypsies]

Ankles rolled to shit and my board was dropping to pieces so I figured I'd treat myself. Last time I bought a full new complete I was buying Girl Boards and Royal Trucks so it's definitely been a while.

@Esquivel no more comments on my setup falling apart thanks

Mine tapers to 8.25, and is 31 11/16, tape pulled straight across tip to tip. I have a ps stix 8” board, that is really 7 7/8…I think they might spend too much time on the router dunno.

Buy Quantums. Anyone on the board will tell you it's basically bones swiss ceramic quality but under half the price. even the metallics are great.

[LebowskisRug]

I dunno what is considered good but I timed my wheel spinning with my hand the other night and my Atoms clocked 1.5min. They've treated me really well since they did the new cages.

[big_kev_215]

I was dreading this day but it had to come eventually and it was time to rip the bandaid off.  After seven lovely months on my 169s it’s about time to start breaking in a new set of trucks.

Oh shit! More vx…which shape you like better so far: this one, or the previous?

[tom]

I like the other shape more. This one is almost half an inch shorter and the wheelbase is a third of an inch shorter. I thought it would be good for flip tricks. My positioning is all off which has been frustrating. No noticeable difference for ledge skating though so there’s that at least
