Came up on some Blueprint boards and couldn't resist. On hand I'm psyched because Blueprint was such an amazing company but then it also bums me out thinking about the shitty V2.0 "relaunch", which literally no one considers to be Blueprint at all.
going home soon so ordered some kicks;

It would've been a whole lot better if they used that same 6 panel that everyone is using that starts of with a flat brim and not those stupid polo ones.

Picked up an Indy bearing press, after market Indy conical bushings and a set of 54mm Prize Fighters. Have been wanting the press for a while, xmass present to myself.
Just picked these up for the cruiser that I'm building that I was posting about. Stoked. Hopefully set it up this weekend!!!

Not being a dick but it sounds like you're just small or lacking strength.Edit: I have one of these Reflex tools, it has a bearing press as well, maybe it'll help. I just use my trucks though.http://www.amazon.com/Reflex-254497-P-Utili-Tool-Skate-Tool/dp/B007B9UK0S

I've never imagined it be like that after all these years.Do the aftermarket soft bushings come close to the Ace's Stock bushing's?
