Had a good time on my first sesh. These pop like Indy's, the turn is very similar to af1s. I hit some steel coping, ledges, rails, painted concrete, the felt great to grind. Not quite as good as Indy imo, but definitely better than classic aces, similar to af1s. I really liked the combo of stability and turn on these, surfy without ever feeling squirrely. No wheelbite whatsoever with roughly 55mm wheels (56mm classics I've been skating). My flip tricks were a bit off, but I think that's due to the height/weight/size difference, I was just on Indy titanium 144s and an 8.25. I set these 149s on an 8.3 so I think it's just a bit of getting used to. These bushings are interesting, maybe why they preform the way they do. Will report back more as I skate them more.
Edit: also, the krook pinch didn't seem to have that weird sloppy ace feeling. I did a few, felt similar to Indy. I didn't do any smiths or feebles, can't comment on that pinch.
