Does anyone magic carpet their setups? I’ve been bouncing between my regular 8.5 and 9.25+ setups but I can’t help but feel the wider trucks hinder my skating.

I know Jason Adams rides Ace 44s (8.25) on every setup he skates which seems insane to me, but it’s got me interested. I main skate curbs and smaller transitions right now.

Part of me thinks it will help me convert full time to the bigger boards which I want to, but I just know the size differences will bother me mentally haha

I tried the magic carpet on regular decks and it didn’t work for me but then I put a pair of 149 on a 9.25 shaped deck and it works really well for me.

Just updating my Tugboat vs. Jumbotron experience.   The Jumbotron has now made the tugboat feel like a popsicle to me now when I go back to it.  I'm digging it.  I hope Lucero keeps the Jumbotron going with more graphics down the road.

If you order from Black Label you can put the graphic you want in the notes.  Lucero will hook it up.

Came here to say that as well. You can get whatever graphics they do on any of their shape on the Label site.
