Nah, don't have a preference on allen or phillips, just as long as they're all the same and not some whack color. Replaced some last spring so my hardware isn't even matching at the moment.

My local shop sells their own bolts so I just buy those rather than any other brand because they probably make the most off them.

The Bronze mixtapes definitely get me through some long drives. Also really funny with the skits. Solid marketing power move there.

The '80s were the worst period. You had these horrible pop bands growing their hair and calling themselves metal.

Thread title reminds me of Ice-T The Tower:

You see the Whites Skaters got a thing
The call White hardware pride
The Blacks got the muscle
Mexicans got the knives

why come?

Shortys

I have always liked the fact that Shortys 7/8" come with the low head nuts, which means they fit well on all the normal cast baseplates.

The standard (taller) nuts that come with most 7/8" bolts of most brands fit best if you are on forged baseplates that are thinner, but often don't tighten enough on the regular plates, so many people have had bolts loosen off or even fall off when using them.

Never lost a single Shortys bolt or nut, that I can recall.


Also the size of the head of the bolts, being smaller than most, is easier to do up and to me, they don't have any issues pulling through, as some people have said, which is why they use bigger head bolts.


I talk too much about skateboards.  Sorry.

it was 1” Phillips for 15 years straight.

the last 6, it had been 7/8” allen
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.

I ride for a bolt company, Orale, but only use one of their 1 inch phillips at the top right, the rest are silver 7/8 allen heads. When the owner reads this he's going to be pissed at me

I just bought some Indy bolts today ("genuine parts")

I would accept substitutes, so no I don't have pride

I wouldn’t say it’s loyalty, but I usually use diamond(7/8Allen).
