Thanks for this informative footage! I've never drilled holes before but was considering to do so. Now i know what to do👍
Dude, thanks for the link!
Super glue a wooden dowel or a bunch of wooden tooth picks into the empty holes and sand off for a nice finish.
a mixture of woodglue and sawdust works too
Very helpful info
Nice & Thanks :)
Most trucks don’t have both bolt patterns. Usually only Indy 159 & 169 have both sets.
Hey Steve! I was wondering if you had thought about reviewing the new Long Island Genesis LEAN truck system, which is similar to a Meraki, but bushing-based? Both are produced by HST I think, and for having tried out both systems side by side when looking for a surfskate model, I found the Long Island truck to be smoother and feel more natural, due to the tendency of the Genesis truck to rebound less. This feels like it allows me to dig into each carve harder, whereas I felt like the Meraki always had a tendency to want to push my feet back up, almost in an unnatural way.
Thanks a million! Love your vids!
Thank you! Yes, I have one and the review is in the works.
I have a really dumb idea.
What if you drill mountainboard footstraps in there?
You could probably do all sorts of wakeboarding moves, like grab tricks or inverts lol
I would call it a "wakeboard skate" because "wakeskate" and "wakesurf" is already taken lol
I picked up a YOW Performer Complete that uses the Meraki S5 system and I'm wondering if there is room to go wider with this deck. I love the concavity of it but I feel like my stance needs a slightly wider setup and I'm wondering if the deck and the meraki system can accommodate being closer to the nose of the board. Love from Minnesota.
🤙👍
Wouldn't ducket tape be better since its stickier then the blue painters tape
That would take paint off your deck.
