Looks good. Question 4 yall: How do you keep your rails screwed in? I bought some pig rails and the screws keep falling out. Use glue?

do you guys with rails do boardslides with them, or are they just more of an accessory? im thinking about putting these creature ones on mine. theres a few ledges not too far off my route to work and i thought it might be fun to slap some rails on there and do a few boardslides on the way home. it also seems like id have to put them pretty far in for the bottom of the board to not hit.

This one of those cork tops, 65 mm Zip Zinger wheels. Why on earth I got Indys for this, while I normally skate Thunders, is beyond me.

Because any truck other than indy's are sub par, and a waste of money.
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.

Haven't had a proper cruiser in a long time, so I'm pretty stoked that I was able to get the deck for cheap and frankenstein the rest of the setup.

Nice.

Magenta cruiser with the indy 109's spitfire 58mm 80hds and a mix of bearings. Pretty fun ride with really small trucks.

Preduce SBTG Cruiser - 7.5 x 30
Ace High 22's (7.5)
Preduce SBTG Cruiser Wheels 58mm 80duro
Bones Swiss L2's
Broken-in Soft Indy Barrel Bushings + Indy Pivot Cups
5/16 Soft Risers
Shorty's 1/4 Allen Head Hardware
Mob Grip

Really digging this cruiser so far... First time on a set of Ace's. I really like the way they turn, just couldn't stand the stock bushings they came with. They felt a bit too stiff, so I swapped em out for some broken-in Indy barrel bushings. Also, one of the pivot cups came split, so I had to swap those out as well. But yeah, the soft wheel / soft riser combo feels awesome. Charging through oatmeal asphalt feels like riding on glass...

This is a great looking setup. How wide is that board and what size trucks did you put on there?

Always wanted to put together a super wide cruiser, finally bit the bullet and did.
It's smooth and speedy, takes a bit of getting used to but it's a good time.

My Cruiser board is a DB Diamondback, it's a larger board but it has a great nose and tail. I love it!

Really wanted to buy a Brad Cromer board, but none were in my size :(

So I thought I should get a cruiser, going to get the Cromer 7.5

Suggestions for a wheel size?

The spitfire 80hd wheels are really nice. I have the 58s and I like them a lot. I think they make a 54 and a 56 too. I'd go big if you want to go fast and if you want something that is a bit different than your regular set up. 54s if you still want to be able to do a lot of flip tricks.
