Filmer board/cruiser






are you just riding the cork, or did you put grip on top of it?
Look I'm not selling anything that doesn't have my jizz on it. I don't care how much is offered.

I think I'll have to figure out some sort of offer code for slap pals too. save you guys a little confetti, move into big brown.

You like that shape? I'm debating whether to get one of these, or one of those new Tommy G Real 20 year cruiser decks. Want something a little bigger than a Zinger, but not as big as a Zagger. Just want to be able to comfortably powerslide on it, but yet have it maintain that minimal tricks, cruising only type feel.

what size trucks are people riding on their zip zingers..i got the 8 inch indies on mine and i some times come across the problem of smacking my back foot on the wheel which isn't fun. im thinking if getting the zip-zagger.

I got some Indy 129s and Thunder 145 Highs in a box but I got my Zip Zinger set up with Thunder 147 Highs and kinda wide 62mm Satori cruiser wheels at the moment. 

They definitely stick out a little but I'm used to pushing so that I don't hit the board/wheels with my foot.

I'm using Ace 22's on my Zip zinger with 65mm Road Riders. They fit perfect, no overhang

Had this since April. I use to have 129 indys on it but I didn't like how it rode so I gave in and bought some Tracker Midtracks about 2 weeks ago and now I love it. Turns extremely sharp and it's nearly impossible to get wheel bite even though I ride pretty damn loose.

I just measured them and they're probably like barely under 2 inches, so they're perfectly flesh with the board's width with the Trackers.

My second cruiser. It's a Black Label - 10.75".
Had the deck since 2007 just never rode it much that's why it looks so new still. I found out the other day my 169 Indys can fit it so I decided to re-grip it, with two sheets.

skating is all about choosing your outfit very deliberately, going out in public. looking super sick. and then riding your board a little bit

Just saw this. Man this looks dope! $115 (http://www.turntablelab.com/the-wall/0/0/88312.html)

i have this, but I hardly consider it a cruiser. fun to keep on hand in case you get stuck at a spot and wanna dork around on a weird board


[close]

Does that thing feel like it's ever going to break? Iv'e always wanted one but Im scared I would just snap that crailtap wood.

I don't know if it boosts the structural integrity, but the pinkish/purplish board I've got has a fiberglass layer. Thus far it has not broken, but it's incredibly flexible as it's got no concave at all.

Recently, my signatured Jeff Grosso cruiser I won on here met it's untimely demise under the tire of a mustang. I've since graduated the Crailtap board to full cruiser status, using the riser pads and big black softies from the old cruiser. It's fucking fun! Feels like I've time traveled back into the 60's every time I booze cruise to the bar. I've got some rails I may install that were intended for the now deceased Blacklabel, but I'm hesitant to predrill the huge holes needed to properly install them. Maybe if I jump on this carpet bandwagon the rail nuts/bolts will be effectively obscured

Got one! Fucking fun, though it feels a bit slow, don't know if it's the wheels or the bearings. Otherwise, it's awesome.

Also, been sitting on this guy for a while. Bought the board a few months back off a meth-head for $20, still in the plastic. Just got the trucks/wheels, etc. day before yesterday.




I'm emassing quite the collection of cruisers.
