Does anyone have any issues with ventures squeaking/clicking after the pivot cup hole deforms a bit becoming a bit oval? I skate the forged plates and do a LOT of nose and tailslides, and I think its pushing the baseplate in and making the pivot cup not perfectly round... maybe causing some issues.
My friend who also does a lot of nose and tailslides on his cast plates just slides through the baseplates and exposes his pivot cup, its crazy half his pivot cup is just poking out but at least its not deformed... maybe the metal of the forged plates doesn't fully slide through but will push into the pivot hole more?? I've swapped out the pivot cups I had in there (riptides) for new stock ones, not really helping.
