Aces Looks like Shit

[HugeBodBoyle]

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

Good enough for Max, good enough for me.

Indys without the baggage.

Y’all are about to talk me into buying a pair of Thunders

[roba]

Been riding Aces for like 15 years and they grind and turn great and actually work wonderfully for me and more than a few people that I skate with but thanks for the heads up you midget with incredibly ill fitting trousers and regrettable tattoos, duly noted.

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..

Lol who gives a fuck

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.

Love Thunders but this has truth to it. Always liked the way Venture lows look.

What height is he?

He’s 16 crabapples tall.
Gil likes to point out that he’s actually 16 AND A HALF crabapples tall, but I can’t be bothered w/ hair splitting.

Ok about to take this too seriously, I’m sure Gil did this just to see if he could get us to post about it

I mean, talking aesthetics. I think Aces are either the best looking truck or second best. The hangar is clean and uninterrupted, and where it meets the baseplate is smooth and sleek. Almost looks like it wouldn’t be enough to support it. It’s like an abstracted Indy. They especially look cool when someone like Casper stands on top of a crook on them, when they are fully bent. Indy’s are nice and classic, but can look a bit bulky (I’m talking my personal aesthetic taste, and I’m riding Indy’s right now), Venture are “cool” but a bit much, tho paired with bigger wheels (John Clemmons does this) they look great. This is coming from someone who rode Thunders exclusively for 5 years, I now find them some of the ugliest lookout trucks, like melted and blobby.

Does this mean that slappy's look like dookie, too? Apparently they are pretty good trucks according to everyone. I still can't get past the fact that they look so much like aces, though. I actually like the look of a thunders hanger.

I need a Venture that's been De Jesus'd like this.

This is sick that this Instagram story post had such an impact. Gilbert could be the non-anti-Semitic Kanye of skateboarding.

Every time he grinds it has a mexican guitar playing...

I looooove the way ACE trucks look. Single wing hangars look so much sicker than double wings.

Aces are the only good looking truck. I like the utilitarian look, the numbers engraved on the outside of the hanger, the checkers on the base plate, white bushings, no gimmicks. Their team is stacked, their ads are good. More importantly they don't squeak and turn better than any other truck.

Honestly Ventures grind like Japanese denim.....rough...

[Dog the Bounty Hunter]

Every truck looks like shit except for Aces. I want to go back to Indy’s cause they skate better imo, but I guess Gil and I both look at our trucks too much.

Some one gets it. Honestly your post was much more clever than mine.

Best part about funny looking trucks is that the only time you see them while riding, they’re general moving quickly enough as to be indistinguishable from any other trucks.
In the case of Ace, the actual turn more than makes up for any perceived physical short-comings.
I think funny looking trucks are cute & now date funny looking trucks almost exclusively.

Should be a name of their New film
