I have a cruiser with solid stage 10 129s. I love the way they turn. My popsicle has hollow stage 11 reynolds 139s, but I don't like the feeling of them as much.
Anyone else prefer solids?
i do, cant skate forged or thin baseplates. i need that super solid meaty gravity cast standard baseplate and solid whole truck feel. i know the guy who did the truck reviews on skateboardingismylifetime feels the same when i was reading his review on forged indy hollows, forged take away this solid heavy feeling you want for more board feel. i guess you could get use to it but just having a solid truck is like that whole driving stick with clutch rather than the new sterring wheel pedal shifters. or maybe its like skating a regular solid 7 ply deck compared to something freaky like the mullen uber light, never had one but i assume that hollow inside with Styrofoam insert or whatever would throw you off cause its lighter and missing the solid one piece feel
side note, has anyone tried destructos? both the D1 and D2 and the Proś of any of the sort? gonna get a pair of D2 soon to try and wanted to know if anyone has had a set and opinon/review
they look really nice and solid and i noticed for some reason the bushngs and shape is different on the D1 and D2
the 1ś have hard looking cylinder bushings and are high for a mid
the 2ś look more like a mid and come with conical bushings, but the 2 pros come with this bones bushing copycat
also thinking of getting some fury, industrial and tensors to try before the year ends.
ive already got and skated all the thunders(all of them in every size except 145 hi and 151) indy stage 11 139 hi and low and 149 hi, theeve hi and lo, venture lo, silver m class, mini logos, royal IV and the new ones, krux tall 4.0 and 5.0 and the downlows, ive stepped on a few friends setups with aces and they feel solid and carvy but theyre too loose for me so i knew i shouldnt get them cause i cant ride like surfers
i just cant get enough trucks, so far i love the way my theeves are but im still hunching to find what would spruce my skating to its top.
