Girl decks are really good. Been skating a Niels Bennett GO23 shape and I’m loving it. What I’ve come to learn about girl/chocolate is you gotta find that sweet spot when it’s comes to shape cause they have some many. Enjoy the deck bro. I hope you enjoy it.
⏳ I take forever to setup boards. Regarding finding the bolt holes to poke from the top on non-clear grip, I'll sometimes use an allen key tool(the L-shaped) to push at the grip from the bottom slightly to locate, then push the hardware through from the top.
14” wheel bases are so easy to pop but at 6’5” I’ve given up on them for now. I feel so unstable on them. Then again I only rode 8” boards that were 14” in wheel base with my size 11.5 i shoes. That probably had something to do with it.
Yea but the tail is longer which I need to adjust to the board snapping faster but I was able to land a treflip with it pretty fast which is a trick I struggle with
Thanks for the grip cutting tip, I'll be setting up a old board that I made a new graphic for. I thought I was the only one that thinks that spending a lot of time setting up the board is gonna make it better, glad to see other people like THAT. Sick video man, keep it up! SANDEDGRIPGANG
Yessir girls are some of the strongest decks imo without any types of construction gimmicks but has the weirdest shapes💯 I fw mike carol shape in 8.3

I think it's the same with Toy Machine, I got one and it has a giant nose, super short tail, and tbh I kinda hate it :)))
Can wait for the setup!!!!!
Can't believe you gys are commenting before the video haha hope you like it!
Loved this shape learned my first 360 flip on it

Can't wait to see you skate this board
Lets gooo
LEGOO!
have u tried fa/hockey?
@@localjoe 4sure they r pricey but they r definitely worth the money especially with how sick the decks look and feel
Yo I just setup a new deck for the first time without rolling it out with a wheel. I felt so wrong. Always use the trucks !
haha you have to theres no going back
Damn we got the same wheels bro I love the tablets they’re so wide compared to my bones and primitive wheels I had and the flat edge looks nice af
Even tho I got 54mm they roll over cracks way better than my old skinny 56mm perfect street skating wheels👌
Have you ever tried the lockins? If you like the tablets you'd probably like the lock ins also!
love short boards
hopefully it helps me get my treflips on lock!
Sick
5k🔥🔥🔥
I know it's crazy! 10k by the end of the year is the goal!

yeah it's a whole different game when your a tall boy haha
@@localjoe yeah and I ain’t no Ron Whaley 😂.
was hoping it would be the phawt or couch shape bannerot board.
Loveseat (GO55)?
My brain doesn't comprehend clear grip tape, I'm always confused about why I can see the board on top 😅
🔥🔥
Would have been dope if the clear grip was only for the one spot in the middle...
Did the smaller wheelbase make it easier to pop?
Yea but the tail is longer which I need to adjust to the board snapping faster but I was able to land a treflip with it pretty fast which is a trick I struggle with
@@localjoe nice, I’ve heard that Darkroom decks have pretty nice dimensions also. They’re pretty much Alien Workshop decks.

yeah man i'm kinda ocd but it gets me stoke when I skate the board how fresh it looks haha
Such a dope setup ! Have you ever tried a hockey deck ? @localjoe
no I haven't but everyone asks me so maybe my next board will be a hockey fa deck
Short wheel base is the reason the super wide egg shapes skate and flick so we'll. But beware of girl skateboards most are made in china now
Weird 7/8 looks like an 1” almost
U should go on a diet if ur tryna tre flip 😂😭
your right and I am lost 20 lbs so far
@@localjoe good for you man, just got back into skating past couple weeks and is it ever a workout not being a teenager anymore holy😂😂
Bronsons are wayyy better than reds, there’s no other way
I'm loving them man!
