How many different boards do you actively skate?

[MysticalTypeExperience]

Just curious to justify my own madness. I've built up 3 different completes in the past few months.

1. Park board - 99a 54mm wheels
2. Street board - 95-97a 56mm wheels
3. Cruiser board - 90a 60mm wheels and 9" egg deck /w short wheelbase for street surfing

Seems kinda justifiable to have 3 even though I could easily ditch #1

Tell me you guys skate 15 different boards per week to reduce my guilt

[gsosa]

I recently added a cruiser/filmer set up in the past few months. I used to just switch the wheels out if I was going to film.
Regular street board - 8.25 99a Conical Fulls
Filmer cruiser- 9.1 Egg with 87a Keyframes

[ok boomer]

2
7.81 w/ 129 Indys, swiss, 7/8" allen Shorty's and Spitfire 52s
8.38 egg w/139 Indys, swiss, 7/8" allen Shorty's and Spitfire 48's

[shawngreg]

2 that i actively ride, but about 8-10 decks waiting to be skated

8.5 quasi proto w/ 8.5 ventures (cast plate, TI hanger, riptide pivot cups, flat top washer) 54mm f4 classics, bones swiss
9 polar surf w/ 159 ti indys, 56mm keyframe OJs, bronson raws

[sketchyrider]

sorry to burst your bubble OP, but right now its just two:

main board, 8.62" with 54 mm 101a wheels, for all things tricky
cruiser board, ~9.5" with 57mm 84a wheels, for beer runs

that said, i have some wide shaped decks stashed around, just for dorking around when i want something different. not set up yet but they will be.

[DISTANT RUMOURS]

1. 7.75, venture 5.0, 44 mm wheels
2. 7.75, venture 5.0, 44 mm wheels
3.8.0, indy 139, 52 mm wheels (Too big for me actually so I'm going to retire it and give it away)

[spanyard]

3 setups in summer, 2 setups in winter. Similar to OP's setups beside the fact that I don't "cruise", I slappy.

With proper discipline, "cruising" is not necessary.

[kevs.clips]

I have a bunch of boards I posted in the quiver thread, but only really skate two.

Main Transition Board: Any 8.75-9.0 board with a square tail (right now on a Polar), ACE AF1s (stock bottom bushing, soft bones top, 1/8th inch riser), Bones 58mm 84b, Bronson G3s

Slappies and a bit of street: Polar Dane1, Ace Classics 55 (Bones medium bottom, bones soft top, 1/8th inch riser), Bones 53mm 99a (right now rocking the V4s), any bearings

[FatGuy92]

I used to have 3, but reduced to 1:

DLX 8.28
Thunder 149ti
54mm formula 4

Just loaded up on a bunch of 8.18 decks so going to try and stick to one setup at a time from here on out.

[Firebert]

10: I categorize them by trucks

Indy Ti 139s - 8.0 tech street setup with 97s that rarely gets used
ACE AF1 44 - "spanly" setup
Indy Ti 144s - small park setup with IKP
Tensor Mag ATG 5.5 - slick/curb setup
ACE Classic 44s w/Kreper pins and mag plates: Holy grail setup that goes with 14.38 wheelbases
ACE AF1 55s - with 8.25 powell flight deck with red lil jawns
Indy Ti 149s - paired with my 8.38 decks - bigger park setup
Indy Ti 159s - 9.0 Heroin symmetrical egg setup
Indy Ti 169s - Heroin Street Baller setup for cruising w/flip tricks
Ace Classic 66s - Heroin Mutant pool/big park setup

[lemonchicken91]

8.5 shop board w calibers and 78a duro 63mm Hawgs Fatties (despite the jokes the caliber regularish trucks make a great crusier) These wheels are fun as well, less squishy than you would think at 78a and feel smaller than 63

7.875 Baker on venture 5.2 8" and formula 4 54 mm classics. Kinda hate this baker shape it feels weird. The OG Steep Concave.

Oh yea an acient tiny sector 9 that an old roomate bought for 20 bucks 10 years ago or something, great sidewalk surfer.

[backinaction]

5 I have skated in the last month.  4-6 more in the garage that it has been a bit longer since.

8" with Thunder 147 / 52mm F4 99 for flip tricks in the garage or in the parking lot next door
8.3" with Indy 144 hollow / 53mm STF - just built this weekend to try 144s and use at the "street" park.
8.38" with Thunder Ti 149 / 54mm F4 99 as an "all around" board - I could just ride this and have it be 90% as good on everything.
8.75 shaped with Ace AF1 55 / 56mm SPF  as a transition board
9.25 shaped with Indy 159 hollow / 54mm NFG 95s as a curb board

Other setups are 8-9.25 with Thunder, Indy, Ace classic and MiniLogo and 51-56mm wheels.

[Roisto]

I used to have 8 setups when my madness was at its height. Reduced that to two: main setup with hard wheels and a cruiser with big soft wheels. Been like that for a three years I think. My cruiser has gotten hardly any use for the past 1.5 years so essentially I only skate one setup and I much prefer it like that.

[Boog]

I have 2 at the moment. One is my street/ outdoor skatepark board and the other is one I just set up for the indoor park that is finally opening back up on the 11th.

Street/outdoor skatepark: 8.25×31.98×14 primitive
5.8 venture HI standard with flat top washer
Spitfire f4 classics 52mm
Reds
Mob

Indoor park: 8.25 full se Real
Independent 149 with standard baseplates and hollow hangers with blue conical bushings
54mm loophole conical shape
Reds
Jessup ultra

[Frank and Fred]

also, two at the moment

8.5 x14.25 Krooked with Classic Ace 44s and 54mm 97a Conical fulls (Slippery indoor and rugged spots)

and

9.18 x 14.75" AH Huffer with Classic Ace 55s and 55mm 99a Classics (worn down from 58 so nice and full) (Parks and decent surface spots)

[white guy in a durag]

I always have two going: a more practical street board, and a big funny board.

Street board
polar 8.625 with lurpivs and 58mm OJs

Big board
Evisen Shor West 10.34 with ace 55 classics and 56 loopholes.

[camel filters]

Currently, I have:

8.5 with thunders and 54mm conical full wheels for my daily driver
8.25 with ventures and 53mm spit classics for tech (brand new deck already cracked from harsh fs flip landing)
8.6 shaped board with aces and 55mm OJ mini juices for filming.

The cracked 8.25 set up kinda confirmed my thoughts that I'm just too heavy footed for anything narrower than 8.38. I also splurged on some lurpives and 56mm classics that for now is just for looking at on my desk. Im thinking maybe I'll give away my 8.25 trucks at some point just to feel less insane. I also have too many spare parts that I'm afraid to look at in case I start setting up more shit to obsess about.

[ibuproficient]

1 normal set-up. 8.38, always the same components.

6+ Cruisers- All pristine, color-coordinated, and silly. 

[Quique]

Had 4 setups at the beginning of the lockdown, from 8 to 8.75 in quarters, was actually really fun but i wanted to progress so I finally settled on one. Ace 44, F4 conical fulls or lockins 55 and whatever deck I can find between 8.25 and 8.5(it's getting harder and harder where I live to find good brands and selecting sizes, I prefer 8.38). I'm gonna buy some venture 5.6 for whenever the deck I get needs them and that's it.

Whenever you feel like you have too many setups remember that crazy post of 50+ completes, some pal can quote it please

[munchbox]

street:
quasi proto 8.5/venture 6.1 hollows+cast plates/f4 conical fulls 52mm

transition:
polar 9.0/venture 6.1 cast+forged plates/f4 radial 54mm

[TastyBurrito]

Four:

Park 1 - "Big WB" for bigger transition.
Heroin Eyeballer 10.1 15WB
Indy 169
61mm OJ

Park 2 - "Small WB" for more park flow and smaller transition
Krooked Gonz Sweatpants 9.8 14.3WB
Ace 55
58mm Spitfire

Curb Board
Creature Gardner TT 8.8
Ace 55
OJ 52mm 95a

Cruiser
Natas 10"
Indy 215
OJ Super Juice Mini

[disclosed]

i run 2 setups.

transition:
10" modern concave 80's shapes with 14.75 wheelbase
Indy 169s
55mm Spitfire OG Classics

street:
9.5 to 10" early 90's shapes with 14/14.25 wheelbase.
Indy 169's
54mm Spitfire Tablets


i wish i just had one setup, and if i had to choose it would be the transition one cause i can use it for the kind of street skating i do, and i can't skate bigger transition at all on the street setup.
but the short wheelbase is just too much fun to give up on.

[MusclesMarinara]

Sadly didn't even have a set up for a while, since money was tight but I have 2 freshies ready to be set up when they arrive after all these black Friday sales.

1. Hook Ups 8.0 *tapered so it's closer to a 7.8*, Indy 139s, 54mm 99a Spit Classics
2. Zero 8.25, Indy 139s *love the magic carpet*, 54mm 100a Pigs

Both same BBS wood and trucks, but I wanted Pig Wheels cause I just never tried them. Most likely using the Zero for park only since it's a bit bigger and the wheels are harder.

[TwisT]

A main board basic 8.25 pop and usually a second cruiser or fun board. Which is currently a primitive 9.75 egg.

[STAH]

well here we go,

Street/Park - Polar 8.5/ Lurpiv 149s (usually Indy titanium 149s)/ Spitfire conical full 54mm 99a

Filmer board - Antihero 9/ Thunder 161s/ Ricta chrome clouds 56mm 86a

Cruise - New Deal old school spray paint can reissue 10/ Indy 169s/ Acid wheels 59mm jelly shots 80a

really depends on the day, and how I'm feeling. I have about 12 pairs of trucks right now so depending on the board I set up it could be any trucks. Indy, Lurpiv, Ace, Thunder, Venture.
the madness continues....

[Fhk]

I have enough shame in my life, I don't need to answer this.

[goodatmeth]

Normally just one and a cruiser with huge longboard wheels, but since winter has come, I currently have an additional rain setup, made of old parts I don't care about and 90a wheels. I'm only using it if it's too wet for my main board and I really want to skate

[franc]

 I skate 4 actively:

1. Trick board
8.125 popsicle, 144s, 99A 52 F4s

2. Small egg
8.25, 144s, 99A 52 F4s

3. Big egg
8.75, 149s, 99A 53 F4s

4. Rain board
8.125 90s shape, 139s, big soft 56s

I have a cruiser too but I haven't used it much since I got a car almost 2 years ago.
I just love having many sets of trucks and trying new shapes. I usually have all my boards in my car and skate whatever feels comfier depending on the spot and my mood.

[bombsaway86]

Daily driver:
9” shop deck w 15” wb
Ace AF1 66
Spitfire F4 OG classic 58mm
Bones Swiss 6

Cruiser:
9.18” AH Cardiel huffer
Independent 159
Slimeball 60mm 78a
Swiss 6 leftovers

Slippery concrete park setup:
9.18” AH Cardiel huffer
Independent 169
Speedlab 60mm 95a
Swiss 6 leftovers

The first one gets used daily, but the other two get a good bit of use too. Just depends on where I’m skating.
