Hi Guys I want to post my set up but I dont know how post a pic.

Everytime I tries it " your pic is too large"
[close]

Go to postimages.org

Upload the photo you wanna post

After it uploads, copy the direct link for the photo

Go back to the slap posting drafting thing, press the Mona Lisa

Paste the direct link in between the two “img” things

If you want to adjust the size of the photo as it appears on the thread, type “width=(some number around 100-500, larger can be kind of annoying)” in the first img bracket thing. for example it could read [img width=250]

Post that shit

Thank you so much.

My early-90's style setup has been a favorite in my quiver. Had to finally replace the JK Industries Dream Girl I had been skating.

Unity "On Top" 9.75, with a slightly reshaped tail to make it a little less square. Based off of the shape of that Dream Girl tail.

Ace AF1 66's that I had converted to inverted a couple years ago with old stainless steel Gullwing inverted kingpins.

Spitfire F4 Tablets 51mm 99a

Bones Reds

Acer Titanium 7/8 hardware

World Industries die-cut grip squares (for that early 90's feel)

Great looking rig. Love to see small wheels on a big old board like that.

Old board I’ve held onto. Chaotic SF graphic that also came on a poster. Reminds me of something Snack would do, too.

Anti Hero Beres 8.12
Venture 5.2 V8s
Loopholes 54s with Sunday Shieldless

DLX 8.12 and 8.28 are great. Always a good time.

Nice setup. How are the Sunday bearings and are those shoes the “Chair Fight” colorway of the Aloha Super?

How do you like it? High concave? I've skated a few of the high concave 8.5" and it's been a favorite so I've thought about trying the 8.38" also.

I usually ride 8.5 with big wheels but I wanted to try a smaller setup.

Hardbody 8.25 short wheelbase
Ace 44
Spitfire lock-ins 53mm
I dont know the bearings since I got the wheels + bearings from a homie.

EDIT: How can I upload it without being so low quality?

i like those boards a lot, it's my third one in a row. i'm not sure about the concave though, i think it's the high, feels more like a medium, but i had a medium concave jart a few years back and it was definitely flatter than this. i think most of their boards are from the 'high' mold.

I have skated quite a few of these Metal BA's with 9" Aces but 
my dude @Francisxavier was kind enough to send me some Thunder hollow 151s that will work out way better for flipping this big bish. Idc what the general consensus is, you can make some lifelong friends on this mfn forum if you stick around long enough 🙂

chocolate jordan trahan 8X31.5 GO18 shape I believe?
Indy 139 Ti hangers W/forged IKP baseplate
spit classic f4 52mm
assortment of bones, Bronson and spitfire(?) bearings
slappy 7/8” Allen bolts

This has me cracking up, what exactly does Black Flag have to do with measuring your dick starting behind ya nuts?

Skateboarding is nothing but a game to find the right fits to appear like you're a proportional human being instead of a midget or a giant.
