Big Boards 9"+( I wanna hear big boys talk about their big boards)

who's getting the beach bum? same shape as the gnarhunter

I almost did, but I'm a little hesitant on the length. Seems like it would be a nice contrast to my green giant.

[Plan9Customs]

Here’s my current set up



Atm Click Donovan Rice 10in
Indy 169s (w the red bushings can’t remember the duro slightly softer than the yellow)
OJ Nomads / reds (not my first choice but what the shop had)
Enjoy tummy rails (they’re okay, first time using rails, not sure who makes the best ones these seem kind of cheap)
Mob

This is my first big board just got it yesterday. So far it’s super super fun, going from 149s to 169s is an adjustment, maybe I should have gone for 159s not sure. Definitely recommend this board, it was only $50 at the shop. It’s made at bbs too.

I really want one of Donovan’s boards unfortunately they’re just to short for me. Or I’m to tall for them. Whichever fits. Rad setup and glad to see his boards getting some love.

They are almost the two extremes, eg yellow beach bum is very short with short 14.2 wheelbase and short nose, the green giant is very long with 15.25 wheelbase and a regular long nose, which was drilled down on the second hand one I got making the nose super long, so I was almost thinking of cutting it down too.

It is more just a cruiser for me, so not that important, but it is funny with such a big difference.

Yes, and you are not alone there - lots of people are keen!!!

This is the most recent stock drop just released as per DLXSF.COM and https://www.antiheroskateboards.com (and the Stock Report video above / on the previous page), so might be in some stores sooner than later in more local US areas, but might be a whole lot longer in other places, like Australia or EU.

So no more Old Yeller? I love this board and would want another one!

Well damn, this thread made me scourge the shops for a Dane1, so now I need to get some new trucks, fuck. Stoked on the Bistro graphic though




So should I go with Ace 55's? Or wider? Would rather ride a flying carpet than a hot rod...

Edit: Just saw the post by @dancing's above, and fuck does it look good with those 55's.

[close]

55 classics or 66 af1s.

Here’s my dane1 with 55 classics

Sure nuff, set it up with 55's and it's a fucking hoot. Lotsa plank and lotsa concave. Love it.

Hey Skibb and Freelancevagrant, you guys got me stoked to get one too. Looking at the exact same board and graphic as you Skibb.

How much does it taper over the back trucks?

Thanks.

I mean, it tapers a bit of course. But it's 9.75" at its widest point and theres no hot rodding with my 9" Ace 55 Classics, so it's nothing crazy. Maybe a smidge under 9" at it's narrowest on the tail?

Haven’t had a chance to really skate them. Wanted an old school feel with this setup and 97a where my wheels of choice back in the day. My fave were Powell T-bones hopefully these replicate that feeling.

Where has that 9.6 pat g shape been hiding? I've been wanting a 9-9.5" egg, but those pat g specs are tempting...

xpost

Zmorgf prototype 10.125" x 31.38" with 13.8" - 14.38" WB (Despite me measuring out a 14-14.5" wb before drilling. Doing the bolt holes is one of the worst things ever.)

I might swap the wheels and add rails later, but I'm happy for now.

^Basically a more street friendly SMA Natas even down to the truck and wheel choices. So good.

[Antz]

Cool

How are those wheels

Actually skated them for a couple of hours. I like them. Smooth enough to cruise with but hard enough for tricks. They slide well when needed. Handles the crusty stuff ok but nowhere near a soft 78a though. Overall I would recommend them but I can’t comment on longevity yet.

[white guy in a durag]

Grabbed a shor west deck, Probably wont be setting it up for a minute, but here's the tea for those who want more detailed measurements.



measurements are taking with the tape stretched, ignoring the concave.
Length: 30.5"
width (widest): 10.34"
width (front truck): 9"
width (back truck): 8.5"
WB: 14.75
nose: 5"
tail: 6.75
(margin of error is like a 1/8" because I found out my tailor's tape actually reads 3/16" short, but I tried to compensate)

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

You were lucky to pick up one of those Shor deck, they sold out so quickly even locally!
I ended up getting one of Kento’s scratchie graphic in 8.625 but I had to HUNT!

Don't know if it'll help you since I think you're located in Japan but, for the USA boys, there's still some on parade.

Finally back with a 9+ , Krooked Dan's Rig 9,25 x 31,8 with 14,75 wheelbase.

It feels so good to be back!!

What a beauty

[Mbrimson88]

anyone know how wide the Anti Hero Beach Bum is across the back truck?

Tom just posted this @tom in the setup thread, so maybe easier to repost here and you can ask him...

Looks like it goes from 9.55 at the widest down to about 9 at the back trucks but he would know.

Another addition to my setup collection

Beach Bum Eagle
ACE 55’s with a single Indy soft bushing in the top of my front truck
56 97a F4 classics with Bones Swiss I took off another setup

I’ve been skating for 23 years and hope to be able to skate for at least another 23 more. I’ve never done a layback grind in my life but this board feels perfect for learning them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯



Here’s the top view if anyone was interested and wondered what the cut looked like

Freshii time.

Beautiful setup and grip job, what's the wheelbase on that scram?
