Kick frum behind the bolts through the nose

That's kind of what I did when I rode them with but mixed results. Rocklobster is saying he does them with his foot further down though? idk I may experiment again. Shit is gonna drive me crazy.

edit: typo

You have to try a bit hard with thunders ventures, but the result is generally a higher kickflip. This was my experience anyway. Ace i had very light, low, lazy kickflips, but they we pretty easy. Venture i had some pretty high and powerful kickflips, but they required more effort, and the added pop heft made it harder for me to find the right technique for doing flip tricks off different ramps of varying steepness.

for those who swear by running ventures with larger wbs
how is the experience? what shapes are you riding?

skated 2 polars back to back on 5.6 standards, both 8.5 x 32.125 x 14.5wb

had no issues honestly, flatground game was probably the best it's been on that config.

I’ve found pointing my toe straight forward and doing them like a child is the only thing I can muster….

[Uncle Flea]

I find I like the almost no pop slow flipper.

I put my front foot like over and above the bolts.

Like half inch behind the nose pocket.

Then I put my back foot center with mad tail showing so it's hard to push down. Almost standing on the truck kinda duck footed so my heel is like off board next to the bolts.

I Ollie through the resistance and it strikes the ground fast like a light switch.

I dig my toe into the nose joint piece feel the tension with my knee way out front and flick like a mad man.

It makes a heavy like long distance kickflip that feels like throwing a long bomb meatball pass.

Then step on it as it hits the ground and hope to twist a last af back 80 on the other side of the crosswalk.

Lol

was about to post this lol not sure if the axles will be hollow but it's nice to see a hollow kingpin in a cast plate option

[IpathCats]

stoked for all you venture dudes, i hope the axle is hollow too. I know you guys have been wanting these for a bit.

[j....soy.....]

IKP should arrive sometime in 2024 I bet….

Venture has so much clearance, they are like the last brand that needs it. I hope they just avoid IKP unless they have solved the issues that come with it.

[sacking rails]

venture have the best tail/nose slide and smith/feeble no need for ikp

[munchbox]

lows in 5.6/5.8/6.1 is now the final frontier
venture 6.5 is the wildcard

we can assume it's a hollow axle b/c the v-hollow name vs v-light, no?

Precisely.

[YungJugg]

wish they were polished but i’ll settle for raw

[tzhangdox]

There should be another collab model coming out, also v-hollow and should be polished

[brownjenkin]

For fuck's sake. I'll have no choice but to get a set when they release a polished version.

If there was one truck that was going to pull me away from Indy again, it's this one.

[Richard Skidder]

I really like the grind on a raw finish truck. Used to get the raw finish Thunder all the time back in the day because to me it grinds smoother. Placebo probably but it just felt different to me.

welcome back

[juniormint]

So good, hopefully they make these in 6.1 also.

[Idk]

When are these out?

Quit honey dicking us Venture and give the dozen or so of us what we want!

[huggernaut]

Based on the size boards he rides I feel like there’s a good chance?
