I know a dude on Venture lo and 53s and he rips. Helps that he's ripped for 30 years but it's at least not making him rip less.

So what are the wb differences on all these various lows?

Indy/Ace/ml pull it in
Royal middle ground
Venture/thunder push out

I always pair 14.25 WB with a thunder or Royal

14.38wb with any of the rest

Currently bouncing between thunder, and ML (with 1/16th riser)

How many people are coming to this thread after watching daddy bens video and swapping to venture lows? Just curious.

Currently rocking some v-hollow lo’s on a setup and it’s been fun. I’ve only skated it once or twice so far but I’m surprised how little wheel it I’ve gotten. I do have an old pair of 53’s that are most likely 50/49mm by now but it’s been a fun ride thus far.

Keep in mind the lights/hollows are a tad lower than the standard lo’s.

I only opted for the hollow because on the nine club Westgate mentioned he rides those

I thought his trucks are 139 forged hollow?

I've been wanting to do something weird for a while. Royals weren't it this summer. I got a used Huffer and 149s and it honestly wasn't the fun I thought it would be.

I bet there are a large percentage of people who didn’t watch it till the end.

He should have called it “skate dad tries indy 139, you won’t believe what happens next!?”

Haha damn I'm an idiot then! I frankly don't finish bhus videos these days because it fuels my own madness and it's kinda dumb when he proclaims setup supremacy and then goes back on that word in his next video.

Ben and I are currently on functionally identical setups. Deck is a Primitive and hardware is generic, but otherwise it’s the same everything down to the bearings.
This is not my SOTY. I'm telling my kids there was no SOTY for 2021

But those primitives are 14" WB (?); still one of the best 8.125 shapes tho, such a great nose.

Which? Last 8.125 Prim I had was a Hamilton (dimension deck), same old 14" WB. I'd dip on one with a 14.25WB.

are the new bbs quasi's the same exact shape as the ps stix?

im on an 8 quasi with a 14.25 wheelbase and 5.2 lo's (52 f4 classics) and it's seriously the best set up i've ever had, i might start buying nothing but quasi after i run through the rest of the decks i have left


i run nothing but 5.2 lo's regardless of shape or wheelbase tho, 5.2 lo's on a board like a quasi or FA you can fucking blast nollies so good. i can do knee high nollies like its nothing on them but the last board i had before the quasi was a 8 enjoi and it was a struggle to even get it off the ground


i would say dont pair them with a sub 14 wheelbase if you like nollies, nollie flips wear fine but straight nollies weren't happening for me

I skate 5.2 lo’s. Favorite truck, and close to madness free: the big issue is being committed to wheels 52 or less, and less cruising.

Do any of you skate your 5.2 lows on anything other than 8”?

I skate mine on 8.25 and it’s great.

I usually skate 8, rn it’s a smaller 8 (ps with some taper, and probably too many routing passes). I don’t prefer the look of the larger deck than truck ratio, but can confirm that it skates great. I can also skate a slightly bigger wheel in that scenario.

Yeah, agreed. I bought one on sale because it had a 14” wheelbase and now it’s far and away my favorite shape.

I pretty much don’t skate anything above an 8. But you all talking about the primitive 8.1 shape has my attention. Anyone found a good 8.0 to pair with your 5.2 lo?

Almost identical, i find the BBS is slightly steeper

I feel like the venture grinds the same as a thunder. It just feels a little different when you're one one truck.prolly the geometry.  50 50 is the same go.
I'm not the best grinder anymore. Old = perpetually slightly off balance but once I get grooves It doesn't matter the truck. If I can get on it I'm going with a smile.

Indy is always going to be the best at that fast 5059 feel. After gullwings made of nylon that. Remember those? Haha.

Venture has two standard heights (i got these numbers from Tactics btw but should be fairly accurate)
High = 53.5mm
Low = 48.3mm

The forged plates (which come on lights, hollows and titaniums) drop the height by 1.5mm
High = 52mm
Low = 46.8mm

A homie growing up would ride thunder low 145with spitfire 58mm perfectly fine. His trucks was so tight tho lol

48mm is plenty big anything bigger than 51s look like mega ramp wheels

Any truck 52mm or below and I’m on 52/51s to start (currently on forged 147s/51mm-ish, might be 50 now). Pop feels amazing.

Venture Truck Height:

5.0 & 5.2 LO
STANDARD - 1.88” - 47.75mm
FORGED - 1.85”- 46.99mm

5.0 ,5.2, 5.6, 5.8 & 6.1 HI
STANDARD - 2.09” - 53.09mm
FORGED - 2.04” - 51.82m
