I want to buy Magenta Ocean Howell guest board in 8.25” but I cannot find any info about that other than width, 8.4” comes with all the info but that 8.25” nothing. Anybody knows and want to help me, there is no way I’m gonna buy a board without knowing what wheelbase it has...?

i really want these and if im honest not even to skate them; maybe to cruise to work at most.
they're just really aesthetically pleasing to me.
haven't tried city cups on, so that's holding me back. also money.

I really like these too but am holding back because I'm not crazy about how leather looks. Black stripes on white is the most classic adidas shit.

Yeah this colorway is super sick. I’d say if you buy em, just wear them around and don’t skate em. City Cups look and skate great but you’ll rip laces in seconds and tear through the stitching on the toecap panel super fast. They’d be the only shoe I’d skate if it weren’t for their sub-par durability

I really want to skate some 9.5 and 10" shaped decks.





having a hard time deciding on trucks, 9" krux are cheap, indy 215 or ace 66 seem better suited
ace is the likely culprit at this point

169s on the winkowski skate great, the shape makes it so that they fit perfect

I am currently attracted to the Kodak collection with Girl.

The Rick Howard deck and some of the shirts are of interest to me.

But Crail wood is not great, right?

Just set up new crail wood, I’ll let you know how it goes. Ben Degros also did a review of new crail board too so maybe give him some YouTube love too?

Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year

Been on 8.25-8.5 with either Ace 44's or Indy 149s.

Considering moving down to 8-8.125 and/or trying a different truck. The wheelbases between 8-8.25 all look around 14.25 give or take. Anyone size down and like it? Main difference is truck width.

Dude, sized down from 8.2-8.3 and I absolutely wish I would have done it sooner. The only thing that was holding me back was going from 149’s to a smaller truck. Went with a 8.25 truck and don’t notice any difference. I should note that I normally ride a 14” wheelbase

crail wood is pretty trashy. Anybody who says that crail wood is good either doesn't skate, is completely regular, or is mismatching the brand or manufacturer

I just starting riding crail again after like 20 years of not and I think it's pretty good.  I'll go get checked out.

Same here I want both of these and would put 169s on either but I’m holding back as I have a brand new deck untouched on those trucks now

Compared to other brands, crail is not as durable or solid. What brand are you using thats made by crail cuz not all of their brands suck completely

I'm skating a new girl b-ball series deck and it's lasting me just as long as a generator deck. Noticeably different from their old wood and the heat transfer graphics doesn't flake off anymore.
