My spare/novelty/shaped setup is quickly becoming a great cruiser and gnar/ditch board I think...



Found a home for the 60mm Kaders and trying my first set of deck rails since my Staab c. 1987, lol.

I never know why I always have such gear madness with cruisers, but with other boards I can go with whatever works.

I'm hoping this combo will work out for the long run :D who am I kidding, it won't lol




- Krooked Mike Anderson deck I cut down to about 8" (widest point) x 30.5" and sanded off the graphic
- Indy 139 standards with Bones medium bushings
- Powell G-Slides 56mm 85a
- Mini Logo bearings
- MOB
- Random hardware

Going to replace the bearings with Super Reds if I ever get around to cleaning them, and I'm not too sure about the wheels since I remember them rolling smoother a few years ago. Still getting used to Bones bushings as I haven't rode them in a couple years. Debating whether or not I should put stickers on the bottom.

Still gets the job done with curbs and tricks!

I have been all about the stained bottom colours more recently, way more so than almost any graphic on the deck itself, so that one really caught my eye and turned out beautifully didn't it?

Rad setup too.

Always like the shape of this Quasi board combined with the short wheelbase.

Alright… help me make a decision. I have a 9 inch Heroin Dead Dave Double Shovel and Venture 6.1 Trucks… OJ Super Juice 60mm or OJ Mini Super Juice 55mm cruiser wheels? I run 56mm Spitfire F4 Conicals on my regular set up, Ohio has some crusty streets. The 60mm Super Juice seems like they would be too heavy?

60s for speed, 55 for fun. I just set up my cruiser with 58s and I sort of wish I’d gone with 56s because it’s been a lot of fun to pull it out every couple of sessions and do some tricks.

i went with 55's for the reason @BartHarleyJarvis mentioned, and if you're worried about weight it sounds like you'd be doing more than just rolling around. the closest i can compare is i have some 58 rough riders that i do feel add a bit of weight, but i don't do much on that other than jumping some curbs and such. anyway, long story short, i find the 55s fun to ride and don't run into crust or pebble issues on them.

It's super fun! My regular board right now has a 14.25 wheelbase and Venture V-Hollow Lows so this with Indy highs and risers feels like the diametrically opposite turning experience.

Last winter I ran some 60 Super Juice and 139s on a big 9" shape and it was really nice, super fun. This looks great.

Buddy just moved into a new apartment and immediately had his catalytic converter ripped off his car. Bought the deck for his birthday and the rest came from my old parts bin, thought a new cruiser might cheer him up.

Polar Dane 1 Jr. 8.65"
Indy 149
Mini Logo 58mm 97a
some old shit bearings. Maybe reds with shields removed
1-1/2" phillips hardware I bought on accident
a wavy sheet of Mob I forgot I had. Fucked up the grip job too

So I trimmed down a deck to a little egg shape but don’t have proper trucks for it yet. I was bored with some spare parts the other night and I can now present to you the, soon-to-be dismantled, Riserizer.


Features a 1/4” hard riser and two 1/8” soft risers per truck.

It sucks.  :D
I only skate prime numbers, so it's either 53s or 59s, feast or famine

60 mm Ricta Clouds are awesome wheels. Roll over anything. Haven’t tried the OJs myself. The Rictas aren’t completely symmetrical so flipping them at least will look funky. Not sure if the wheels are otherwise symmetrical or if it’s just the outer edges being different.

The clouds are Rictas only good wheel, great cruiser wheel and a shape that lends itself to actually being skated if so desired.

The super juices are more strictly a cruiser wheel, but if you really wanna make ‘em work for gettin busy on a ledge you could. But they’re pretty heavy.

If you’re really torn, get Oj Keyframes. It really comes down to personal preference between these and the clouds but they have a more square shape like the superjuice and are more adaptable.
You know I thought these forums were a for skating not discussing fetishes

I’ve got both on cruisers and prefer the clouds. A bit smoother ride in my experience. Both are super soft at 78a so I haven’t tried to do much with them trickwise, but if you’re looking for something functional I agree with the poster who suggested key frames. If you just want something that’s fast and smooth, I would recommend going up to the 66mm slimeballs. Def faster than either the clouds or ojs and you can get away with using 1/4 risers.

Thanks for yall answers,

I was interested in the clouds, but after reading yall I think I'm gonna keep my OJ Superjuice 60mm on my current cruiser setup till they blow out. Then maybe gonna go with the big Clouds. Might try them before on a smaller setup in like 56-58mm tho. They seem to get a lot of love over here as slimmer cruiser wheels along with the Keyframes.
