It's a cruiser. Tiny wheelbase = quicker turning. It's on purpose. heh

Doesn't the wheelbase have to do with the width of the trucks? I'm confused

Wheelbase is the distance between your front and back wheels. It's the BASE that your WHEELS provide you to stand on, turn, suck a dick, whatever.

Deck, trucks, and bearings are all about 2 years old.  I just got the wheels yesterday (see 'cruiser wheel' thread), but I wanna Rit dye them to another color.  Any suggestions?  I think I'm gonna go with black

I think black is one of the few colors that'll actually work. Unless you want purple.

a buddy opened a shop about a year ago. That was when i first laid eyes on it...
i went back recently for the 5 boro premier and  saw my wiener on the board rack. Surprised to see it there, i bought it.

Trying to get in on some of that wiener gripping action?

Ha - you know it..!

but seriously - if you saw the 5 Boro premiere and it's a new shop around NY, I'd guess Belief Skateshop, but I could be dead wrong...

Either way - I bought this toy machine cruiser and totally regretted it because it's too big and it's not really Ollie-friendly. Good for cruising though...

Not my pics - but I have the same soft wheels like this, cept their red and not purple like this guy's:
