The Beatrice Zahba’s look better than his pro model shoe.

But yeah, Aces look like Orion trucks on trenbolone.

Wasn’t exactly blown away by your Chris-Cole-circa-2011-ass Venture colorway there either, buddy

Pretty hard to be a truck aesthetics snob and come out with a non-silver pro edition truck…

For real. I’m running these right now and I personally prefer the way they look. Krux is the only major brand consistently putting out dog shit.

Coming from a dude that skates like he has rickets, that statement has little to no value.

Crockett is sick as fuck

but

he needs some fucking aces

Lol. Eldee is definitely a human. He’s like a raider on horse back who’s kinda scared to do battle. Somehow he closes his eyes and swings his sword wildly and wakes up in a pile of dead orcs.

I their how tubular they are. I pair them with copper-colored hardware for an "old alcohol distiller" kind of look.
Makes me want some ace af1 trucks in millennial rose gold with copper hardware so I can use my board for an aesthetic charcuterie after the sesh and have all the cheese with my girl boss gang

nothing's been the since same

I don't mind how aces look. I fucking hate how thunders look though. I can't really even explain why. Having said that I'm currently riding thunders on my main setup lol.

Thunders are the sexiest truck imo. Can’t stand ventures.

I'm the opposite. Love how ventures look. I struggle with them though. I keep trying to skate them but always swap around to something else.

Imagine being so inflated that you think the skateboard community should give a single fuck about your opinion regarding the aesthetics of a truck brand. Who at Ace hurt you Gilbert? Maybe try a set and loosen up. Skateboarding equipment elitism is some kook behavior.

venture low probably the coolest looking truck, but aces have a great look

There, fixed it.
Venture highs look like shit, especially the 5.0 high.

They look perfect on my setup and really nice when Max Palmer demonstrates board control.

I think the bigger surprise in 2024 is that Tom Penny rides for ACE :0

I don't really give a shit about how trucks look, however Aces always look bent to me. I have Ace AF1 55s on my current set up. Had Ventures on the one prior to that. I prefer the way the Ventures feel, but I've moved on to exclusively riding big shaped decks, and they don't make anything wider than 8.75". I might throw some 6.1s on anyway and see if I notice having that overhang.

Lol is this why Keegan McCutchen never got on Quasi? Gonna sound like a nut job but I always found it peculiar that Gilbert and Nick Matthews don’t follow each other on insta.. everyone else on the team yeah but no Gilby..

I never ride them but still think Indy is the perfect looking truck. I ride Thunder 147,or 148 and always thought they were a little meek looking. I need to think about diferent stuff. None of it matters.

Most would likely  disagree with this.


Aces look like diet Indy and I don't mean in that in a good way. Not bad, just not quite good. Awkwardly thin looking hangar.

Thunders look weird in smaller sizes, like generic Tech Deck knock offs. 149 + they actually start to look way more appealing to me.

I'm indifferent about Venture - some make them look sick tho

Actually, I think Aces are the best looking trucks. But opinions are like assholes. Everyone's got one.

Performance aside low trucks just look better than standards/highs. (Personal fav looking Indy lows stage 9)

When theeves started they had two versions one thin like an ace and one thick like a 90s indy and they went with the thick one. So I guess Gilby has the same taste as the people at theeve
