The last cruiser I had was easily 8-9 years ago, so I was pretty stoked to receive the zip and the wheels as a present this christmas.

Zip Zinger 7.75 x 30
56mm OJ Plain Jane Keyframes (never had any wheels from OJ before, these are incredibly smooth)
Indy 144 Hollow's that I purchased at the start of the year, with some generic risers probably from AWH
Reds
Jessup

ive ridden this 2x. This is my brother Ians board. He got it for like 20 bucks at the flea market next to his clinic in lynn.

I have no idea why but it doesn't turn for shit. I ride aces primarily and formula 4.
I got the coni full they was 56s but now they like 48s.

I know why they dont slide. Fast as fuck im telling you boy.

I can do like speed checks but they so sticky the wheels are like Nah this is a suicide bomb run ked and were running that red line.

It whips back to regs fs and backside at speeds over like 25 with a light wobble.

I think iys a bargain. These wheels suck indoors idky people say oh get soft wheels. Nah i wanna slide and jam. I get stuck under big coping when i slash.
Hard wheels basically slappy over pool coping.

Good for sidewalks in Allston though.

My 2€ ked

Maybe ill test them on concrete next

Truck doesn't turn i got the Fucking locking nylon showing on both trucks. Must be wheel base issue

you got a top pic? gotta say, i thought 144s on a zip zinger would've looked mad stupid, but that pic doesnt look bad.

Looks even less like a monster truck from the top. These were the smallest trucks I had on hand which is why I used them, but they feel great.

looks very nice man. I’ve always loved that zip colorway, might have to really consider it now...

i recently rode the krooked drehobl 9.25 and loved it.

it tapers a lot (8.5) over the back truck, which made it a bit tricky to fit trucks but with 159s it felt super smooth.

i like the extra leverage you get over the front truck, but also i have to put extra effort in to land things cleaner

Yeah, it's a fun shape. Got one on my cruiser. Wide as fuck in the front and tapers a whole bunch in the back. The tail is really short which kinda threw me off at first but surprisingly it still ollies nicely without too much effort with 60 mm wheels and 1/8" risers.

Probably haven't posted this here. Had it for over a year now and I haven't used it all that much. The past few days I've been taking out to cruise the city picking up some groceries and whatnot. It is so much fun. That shape is fucking golden. 6.25" tail I think. Sounds crazy but it's really nice. Cruising around popping ollies, throwing small manuals, running over anything and everything, carving about. Too fun. Give your cruisers some love, go cruise just for fun with a chill mindset. It's awesome!

Here's the top pic. I feel like pics don't do it justice. I was surprised by how much wider it is in front than in the back when I got it and I looked at the pics for quite a while online before I ordered it. Anyway, it's a nice board for sure. Double drilled for 14.75" and 14.25" wheelbase too.

Thanks. Really liking that shape and wide-ish nose. Tail doesn't look short but I think that's just the angle of the pic.
It's really measures 8.5" across the back truck? I was hopeful for 8.75" wide there.

Yeah, it’s 8.5”. I remember checking it myself at some point. I can double check when I get home if you want.

Seeing a decent amount of oj plain Jane key frames. I have some on my cruiser and I love them I’ve had them for a while. You can roll over anything with with them. I hear a lot about you can’t make them slide, but of course they don’t slide as well as hard wheels. You can still make them slide a little. I skated my cruiser around the skatepark Sunday morning right before it started raining and I didn’t feel like taking out my regular set up if it immediately started raining on me. I was doing lots of frontside nose slides without any resistance from the wheels. Also I like the wheels a lot for wall rides they do really grip the wall

Powell Peralta Mike Vallely Elephant Resissue
Independent 149s (back trucks hollow)
OJ Keyframes 58mm 87a
Bones Reds
1/8” risers
Pig Rails

Occasionally run Slimeball 58mm 96a


One of my rails is wiggling out, think the wood stripped. Ya’ll recommend drilling new holes/deeper or just wood glueing it? The rattle is getting annoying.

Love the elephant, such a nice shape! One of the decks that put you in a good mood skating.

For the rails I’d take the screw out, fill the hole and underneath the loose part of the rail with strong glue and screw it back up. I a so keep a short hardware screw around in case the glue doesn’t work, you can drill through and bolt it tight

Ah good idea, i appreciate it. Gonna try that tomorrow. Only difficulty is taking out the screw since its thrashed into the rail but not the board.

Well the rail popped off right after I typed that, just have two screws left I gotta bang out the rail. Gonna try the glue later.

Love how flat the shape is, fun switchup from the steep-ish concave on my Polar popsicle.

I bought a 9,95 board and I cant really decide what trucks I should get. I have tried a pair of Indys 149's and they look ok, but of course I want bigger trucks. But I cant really decide if I should get the 159's or the 169's. They recommend 169's for the board size I have, but I think it would be enough with 159's when I tried the 149's. I dont really know how much wider the 159's are compared to the 149's?

Please help a brother out.

If it’s a cruiser choose the wider truck...

You can go faster with more stability and get big surfy turns
