Definitely grabbing those 66s after comparing specs to my 59 Radial Fulls.
Those huge Classics are going to wear in so good. Hearteyes
Would you need to stack risers with wheels over 60mm? I've been eyeing some 64mm Dragons for my cruiser but I keep thinking is it too much...
Personally I'm not planning on it.
Riding those 59 Radial Fulls on forged 144s no risers with blue 92a bushings and wheelbite isn't an issue for me so far. Will try cast plates before risers with the 66s.
This isn't my main setup, mostly for pushing around town looking for spots and long distance pushing. I do tricks on this board, but it's not my main at all.
the 60s, classic shape, look fun as hell.
also, skating a board for distance is such a good time.
That's basically all I did for like 12 years. it was so fun.
One day my new roommate said "blah blah blah can you even get onto a barrier?!?!?
That's the moment I was like BACK on tricks.
I was fuckin livid and probably zooted af.
I was like wtf. I best fuckin skater you've ever spoken too DOG!
And I fuckin killed that spot to the best of my ability after my ACL "heeled" first time I went.
Sam invited me to a cool little barrier party that Tim threw. Super fun time. I miss living in the city desperate.
I'm in Boston for band practice tomorrow!!! I'm going to stay after and bomb around a while. Really test this new Duro.
Crosstown Mash from Dorchester to China Town.
Then I wanna go up the commons and look at the bomb the diagonal hell pathway.
Has these two curbs being unearthed in the middle you gotta mash through when you're crossing other paths. I found it by accident two years ago at Freedom Rally or whatever it's called now.
It's pretty fuckin intense.
I was showing off for my friends. Thought is was a normal pathway. Just diagonal.
Yo baby girl and the nerd they brought with us for some reason.
Yo watch my old ass break the sound barrier and show you I'm a fuckin SHAMAN not some lame ass hunter and definitely not a narc ass gather.
Wheeeee! Instant regret because I was going far far too fast to put a foot down on brand new 58mm ogs and these insanely crusted cracked out holes around the perimeter unsuspected granite train tracks I got to hit at an angle are coming in hot.
And this fuckin GI Joe looking mother fucker with a flat top and a gorilla build in Air Jesus' is mean mugging my ass like immediately after the curbs.
He's all red in the face holding his back regreting parking up hill in this beautiful weather.
He's refused to step 6 inches to the right into to the grass until I was shitting my pants going over the things at and right on him.
I thought he was just going tuck shoulder and brace for impact but... he blinked.
Probably cuz I was screaming like the Black PewDiePie on ig about to get cross checked by a Prius. And there was like 10000 fuckin people watching.
Probably a cop looking for a kill. But thought way too many eyes. Or they too shit their pants.
Took 5 years off my life. But it was definitely the best thing to happen that year besides getting my apartment.
I'm probably just going to bomb Bowdoin Street head back home.
I think Copley is gone
Those blocks better end up some place beautiful.
These wheels fuckin built for that shit. I'm going to do it again this year maybe. Probably take a 67 to get over two more years of rain running down that thing.
I'm super fuckin lucky I had those 58mm wheels.
Oh yeah with 66.6mm wheels
I feel like two or three Green 3 Ply risers would do it.
Maybe two Venture style and one Universal in the middle. I think universal is yellow. That'd be sick af.
That with a Green Loose trucks kit and My 6.1s. maybe throw a Green Bait and Tackle bottom bushing on just for safety sake.
Boom might just be the formula for folding space and pulling my ass into the future so can live 200 years.
