There should be a Mindy...
I skate thunder team hollows or titaniums 148's and they are awesome...I'm more or less just trolling...
Keep a look out they’re gonna steal that and post it on their Instagram
The new ”mindy” in between a standard and low for the best of both worlds
Yeah I was doing the thunder 148 for a bit but I’m a kook and want my board a little lighter so I went from my ti 148 to some old ti 147
So far it’s working but I kinda miss the stability and height of the titanium 148
Might go back now
Was loving the heck out of my royal 5.25 standards buttttt the grind clearance is horrid and idk if I’m willing to go for the unstable inverted pin, it’s one of the reasons I lost my love for the krux lows
Any inverted style kingpin I tried doesn’t feel stable, it gives a weird response to the turn
It feels like the whole pin shifts at an slight angle before the hangar can lean and turn
If the royals had better regular kingpin clearance I’d definitely be riding those for a good few months
They’re just what me and mike Carroll wanted
A quick pop response, just like he said
When you setup a board that’s what you want right a way, a good quick pop response and especially for me a person who moves too instantaneously
Had problems with my tre flips for a while cause I would pop and scoop and flick all at once and expect a good fast tre, then my friend who was spectating told me not to pop and scoop so fast and low and behold
Got those 360 flips back, just had to adjust my back foots instant scoop action
Back to the point, royals work for those who want a quick action
They’re like thunders but more stable so you don’t have as much quick decent turn and grind clearance, but you have easier Ollie’s and flip tricks and they turn better than ventures and don’t extend your wheel base
They’re almost like an Indy that is trying to be a thunder
Similar Indy geo but thunder height and response
