Crosspost from the considering buying thread, but i'm looking for board options to put Indy 215s on. I'm keen to get a set now they're around again, and want to see what 10"+ boards are out there. Seen the GGIs and the Dogtown Bigfoots, but keen for some other insanity.
Anyone running 215s on anything?
In my opinion you can ride them on much more than most people do. 9.5” and up and in general everything with a wide tail.
All kinds of scrams, sc winkowski, even. or heroin eyeballer (very similar shape with modern concave)
A lot of the prime and new deal reissues work for sure.
You just want to ride them as loose as possible because they turn pretty, pretty poorly.
Good to know, thanks.
Turn bad? I just imagined they'd feel like bigger 169s. Chuck em on a riser and get busy but that's a shame. You know if the wide Aces or Thunders do any better?
The super wide hanger gives you less lean/angle before you get wheelbite.
Ace 66 might be the carviest, wider option? 9.35", shorter wb than Indy's, but lower too.
If you're serious about 215's you should get them quick, I'm pretty sure they sold out again in the States.
What's that big Dogtown shape called? A pig? Off the top of my head that's the only shaped style that really needs 215's. Alva has some thing similar. And Pool Kings? Socal skateshop and sk8supply might help with options.
