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.

he gripped my wiener for free

Have you let anyone else ride your wiener?  I bet your wiener has gotten a lot of compliments.  Your wiener has a nice shape and is quite stylish.

thanks for the kind words HATE!. 

No one has yet to ride my wiener. It was handled once - gripped with both hands. That i didn't mind.
But from now on i wanna experience it all for myself
This is my wiener. there are many like it but this one is mine

Oh shit, they sure do look like they're on backwards.

Isn't that just longboard technology? I've seen trucks on longboards w/ the kingpin on the wrong side of the hanger before, which would furthermore support his opinion of the board being too long. Toy Machine longboards?
I rarely venture into classic slap and the one time I do it I find a guy getting his dick eaten by a dolphin.

I guess it would be more of a cruiser, but I'm thinking that, once I switch out my Designarium cruiser, I'm going to get a skinny, odd shaped board but keep my super wide trucks on it for my next cruiser.  Like Thunder 149s on like a 7.75/7.8.  Seems fun.

does anyone have any experience with the pig supercruisers? i?ve had krooked zipzinger 65s for 2 years now, but i want something more "skateboardy", smaller, if that makes any sense. i am torn between the 58 and 56mm ones, any suggestions? how big is the difference between those 2 diameters riding wise?(except for 2 mm diameter....). i kinda want to go for the 56mms but i am not sure if its big enough for rough pavement? i guess the softness should make up for something, but yeah, i have no idea.



thanks a lot.

Decided to get the reissue of the first pro deck that I ever had (even down to the woodstain) and put my old trucks on it (Thunder Titanium II Hi 147). It makes nice change from the Krooked board that I had set up before, longer wheel base and wider, although the reissue is smaller than the original.

I have one of those deathwish 40 cruisers from a while ago that i fucked up and recently stripped the grip off of, and im currently using zip zinger sized supreme cruiser as my primary cruiser. Now, i'm debating if i should buy some grip and new trucks for the deathwish deck to have a wider more solid cruiser, or if i should just buy a new 7.5/7.75 ish cruiser and keep rocking with the smaller cruiser. decisions decisions...

That looks like an incredibly fun, normal set-up. Or second set-up

finally got a computer so i can start posting pictures of my crap here yaaaay.

alien workshop x squid meat zine old school shape 8.37 x 32.25
indy 139's
barely used powell skull and sword 58's my homie from seattle sent me.
bearing salad
shake junt hardware cause they are Oakland A's colors not because i am 12.





i think im going to get the new zip zinger aloha and probably some of the orange spitfire magic mushrooms joints in probably 52mm so i can have a smaller cruiser too. i was going to ask if the magic mushroom wheels slide but i realized the powells my homie hooked up are 90a so im gonna try to do some power slides tomorrow and make my decision on whether to get the spits. but feel free to chime in with spitfire magic mushroom wheel knowledge if you've had them.
Man the long board truck thing killed indy for me. I was willing to set aside the racism, but long boarding, gtfo... - DH

if all cruisers were inspired by old shaped decks from 80's&90's instead of the bananas/suppository ones they would gain my attention and my respect

how are those ace 00s on a zinger? does it make the turning better or worse since they are a little skinnier than the deck? and are they lows or highs?

you live in a sacred land if you can use 50mm wheels on a cruiser.

Cruisers are fun in all of their forms, and command no respect, or attention.
