Lol I know.  I’m thinking it maybe has something to do with production getting logjammed with Covid and him not having an official board sponsor for so long that they’re all out at the same time. 

The shape looks pretty interesting.  Pretty pointy and tapered at the ends; almost a football with straight sides.  Eager to try it out

56mm for the crust setup

[close]

That is the first set of those I have seen anywhere (other than the stock / catalog pics).

They already seem to be in very short supply, according to a few others I have talked to.


[close]
like selling out before they even hit shelves? Or just didn’t make that many?
[close]

A bit of both - something along the lines of "demand exceeded production in unprecedented levels" for all DLX hardgoods, so I guess more people want them than ever, but they are still trying to catch up from covid issues.


I still haven't heard if those other 97s in the info are just the normal Classic or OG classic though...

Not a worry to me either way, but I know people would love a 97 OG classic!
[close]
interesting. Hopefully they adjust their production/orders in the near future if they see the demand for 97a. I’m loving my 97a 54mm classics.  I’d like to try the 56mm and I think I’d rather have the conical full over og classics. Either way though, I’d take either
[close]
asked for the shipment date a week ahead, figured they would be gone immediately.

was the only set they had (left?) in the glass. couldve been more in the back but i wouldnt bet on it

Tactics has 97s in 54 and 56 rn

Copped some bolts at the local. The dude automaticly handed me Diamond Supply allen heads which was fine for me. He told me they don't even stock Phillips heads anymore. I also needed speed rings. They had none for sale but he rummaged around in his toolbox for a while to give me his 4 last (used) speed rings for free.   8)
why come?

Please report back your thoughts. Thinking about ordering some shortly.

Included speed rings are wonky as fuck shape-wise, I have not seen such low quality speed rings before (you can see how off they are in the pic) they are almost oblong shaped but seem to be flat which is all that matters. I think the ring is wider overall - compared to stock thunder and indy washers for sure - and seems to be made to cover/overlap the entire inner race. Nit picking here.

They follow the 'balls out' design of all Bronson's. Thin red line faces out.

Set them up in spit tablets, no issues with the spacers being too wide, bearings sit flush in their seats. Minimal play inside for the spacer.

First roll, they're smooth and really quiet, but it's going to be a while before they break in; will report back.

Not having the case's lid click to lock into place is really annoying, it just falls off unless you store it upright = rubber band to the rescue; I've got the bones bearing cleaning kit so I doubt I will ever use this to clean anything (but I will store cleaned bearings in it).

Super good initial feedback. Thank you. My shop hooked me up with a BCU and while pretty nifty and handy, I fully agree that the lack of snap-on or clasp for the lid is a really stupid oversight. Thanks again and keep the updates coming!!!!

If you don't want to pay 50 cents a bolt, you can order 1" allen bulk from pretty much any hardware/industrial supply company. For a while grainger had boxes of 100 for like 45 cents but I think they're sold out now (I may have bought 8 boxes), but even full price is only a couple bucks per hundred. Nuts are sometimes not easy to get a good deal on but they're cheap anyways... just look for #10 nylock nuts.

Here's the ones I got a bunch of -

https://www.grainger.com/product/4XY14?RIID=54198148675&GID=&mid=OrderConfirmation&rfe=37f9818468eb09ea2005f965e8cec3aa74ddf544798e93697a14a5963a5f7c99&gucid=EMT:10339122:Item:CSM-323&emcid=NA:Item

Besides the amazing price they have a wider head than most skate hardware which keeps things nice and tight since they don't work their way down into the holes over time. If you really want colors you can color them with a paint marker or nail polish.

Not that I condone it, but there's a pretty big difference between kicking flipping over a bum sleeping in the middle of the spot and doing a wallie off one (which is what the initial post made it sound like). People have been doing that pretty much since street skating started and I think it was even a challenge in THPS or one of those games.

Impulse ordered a dane 1 while drunk from tactics, so I'll probably get a surf from my local when they're available to even out my karmic balance later.



I know dudes get weird about red stains, but I was riding a yellow top stain when I broke my arm, so those are the ones I get superstitious about. I was also excited to find out that they have jessup ultra now, so I can finally have the shoe destroying capabilities of mob, with the weird crinkly-ness of jessup.

Got my hands on a lightly used pair of Venture 5.6 Titanium from @Xen and they are my dream Venture. 318g is the nice weight to pair with 8.25 boards, Thunder Titanium are a touch too light and the baseplate on my pair if so worn out that I'm sliding almost entirely on my wheels. May revive it with a Team baseplate if I can a spare.
Venture Truck Height:

5.0 & 5.2 LO
STANDARD - 1.88” - 47.75mm
FORGED - 1.85”- 46.99mm

5.0 ,5.2, 5.6, 5.8 & 6.1 HI
STANDARD - 2.09” - 53.09mm
FORGED - 2.04” - 51.82m

Snapped up a set of Venture Hi's. I originally got them as I need trucks for my cruiser setup, but now I'm wondering if I should just swap them into my main setup in place of my Indy's.
