That was me in the shop 😂. It was easy to say no until it was in front of me with 3 brands of the right size trucks to pick from. You Sir will love it.
These Heroin eggs are nothing like the pointy nosed 90's eggs. They have huge wide kicks and decent concave. Looks like a blast - I'll have to try them one day!
Heck yeah brother! love to see older skaters still rocking and skating! I took a super long break from skating but im finally fully back into it at 38 and slowly just ramping back my body up to shape for skating! been documenting my own journey on YT and instagram. love to see the egg. i had similar thoughts and bought an egg as well (fried egg 3.0) but really didn't click with it. the nose and tail were waaay too tapered and the tail was down right tiny! was under 6"!! i kinda decided to swear off eggs altogether but now im r econsidering and thinking of picking up a even bigger symmetrical one instead hoping that would make it work. ive gone through mutiple tests to see what i like and i think i'm getting close to the right setup. wider board with short wheelbase is really the best combo keep skating brother will keep watching your journey
Welcome back to skating. The best part about doing it as adults is we have the resources to try it all. I thought this would just be a fun board to have. Honestly, I can't stop skating it. I have to leave it at home or I won't skate my regular board and work on progression 😂. It really is a great time. Still no heelflips on it. I will check out your channel. I am always interested in the journey. Stay Rad
I would absolutely be down to try a bigger one. However, what trucks would you use? This board is really fun. I have been playing with it much more than I have been skating for progression. Stay Rad Sir.
Team 47 💯. I love setting up boards. Each board comes with new possibilities. I have over 35 boards and they are all set up differently. I need to do a video sharing all my completes. (It is an addiction 😂) Thanks for checking out the video. Stay Rad Sir
No problem, and thanks for actually watching the video and seeing that part of it 😂. The first session videos is also up. I have been skating it a lot the last few days. It is really fun. Stay Rad my friend. 🙏
I took it for a few runs in the bowl yesterday for Go Skate Day. (It felt good to get back in the bowl) It moves pretty good. However, I like my shaped boards that fit my stance. Stay Rad, miss skating with you my friend.
Tracker trucks makes a truck called the Dart and it's widest model is 219mm(11.25")wide.That swampy wideboy is a symmetrical egg which is kinda confusing since the money bumps are not on all four corners of deck.
I will check out the trackers if I go bigger, thanks. Yes the money bumps make it not a true egg to me. I ride it as if the money bumps are the tail of the board. I don't treat it like a symmetrical board. I absolutely love it. I should be going out for sessions and working on progression on my 8.5 but I just keep skating this thing. Stay Rad Sir.
What you can do to make that deck last twice as long since you are going to skate it like a directional deck is to just switch the trucks from front to back when the tail gets razored unless you do tons of nollies the nose should be fresh enough to make the nose the tail but you know trucks wear different from front to back so gotta switch
It is big but skatible, well minus the heelflips 😂. I like trying different boards. However, my normal board is an 8.5 Popsicle or an 8.75 shaped board. I like the 8.75 for the bigger nose. The best thing about being 47 is we can go out and get and try new things 🙏. Stay Rad Sir. Let me know if you try the mini egg.
@@AdventuresInSkateboarding I have tried the 7.9. egg before but cause I have size 11 feet felt like nose and tail was too small. Like a bigger nose like slide tricks skating a Just under eight inch zero at present.
Yes , the pointy nose and tail would definitely be challenging. The nose is the number one thing I look at when buying a board. Even old school boards.
Oh man, I didn't even skate in the 90s 😂, I stopped skating in 1989 and started again in Dec 2017. Small wheels and giant pants weren't for me. But at 47 I would absolutely try some 40mm wheels and giant pants for no reason. 😂😂😂. Stay Rad Sir.
@@AdventuresInSkateboarding I skate a zero x misfits coffin deck, it's pretty cool. Everyone I've seen skate these big eggs say that their really fun. I really wanna try them but I don't really have that kinda money
I don’t need an egg
I don’t need an egg
I don’t need an egg
(Watches video)
F@ck it I’m getting an egg!
That was me in the shop 😂. It was easy to say no until it was in front of me with 3 brands of the right size trucks to pick from.
You Sir will love it.
@@AdventuresInSkateboarding I’m debating on just going all in and getting one of the eggzillas
@bigdeckenergy8119 you definitely have the skillzzz for that. Go Big D Energy it go Home 😂.

sweet monster truck you made
The smaller wheels keep it reasonable. Anything bigger would be out of control. But she skates.
Thanks for checking it out. Stay Rad
That deck is massive. "That's what she said." Haha. Thanks for the shout-out! ❤
You would have a good time on one of these.
Absolutely my pleasure on the shout-out. Glad you watched the video enough to see it.

Most of this went way over my head but there's nothing like a new toy - whether you're 8 or 88! YYYYYEEEEEEEWWWWWWWW!!! :)
That's It 😂🙏
oh boy, thats really a wide boy!
The day you released this video i saw they will be releasing 13" and 14.125" heroin boards this fall 😯
I would absolutely be down to try a bigger one. However, what trucks would you use?
This board is really fun. I have been playing with it much more than I have been skating for progression.
Stay Rad Sir.
Looks interesting!
Far more fun than I thought it would be. I just keep skating it.
Nice!
A good time for sure. 🛹🙏
47 year old skater here. I love setting up and customising skateboards, and slowly getting better at gripping boards.
Team 47 💯. I love setting up boards. Each board comes with new possibilities. I have over 35 boards and they are all set up differently. I need to do a video sharing all my completes. (It is an addiction 😂)
Thanks for checking out the video. Stay Rad Sir
Having that many boards is outlandish
@Deathcatclub for sure. It is a problem, an addiction.
I got the 9.5 razoregg and it feels way smaller than 9.5. It flicks good with the razor edge and shorter wheelbase.
Sounds rad. I am a fan. Stay Sir
Thank you for the shout out Anthony!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I saw that one in my local... Really nice set up, now go and do some grinds!😊
No problem, and thanks for actually watching the video and seeing that part of it 😂. The first session videos is also up. I have been skating it a lot the last few days. It is really fun.
Stay Rad my friend. 🙏
looks like it would be a good transition board
I took it for a few runs in the bowl yesterday for Go Skate Day. (It felt good to get back in the bowl) It moves pretty good. However, I like my shaped boards that fit my stance.
Stay Rad, miss skating with you my friend.
dawg that board is huge good luck A.
have you tried glueing you rails?
It is pretty easy to skate but I cannot seem to figure out how to Heelflip it. I will keep working on it.
I haven't tried gluing them. Normally I go way old school with the Rad Nuts. Some companies come double sided tape and the screws.
💪
🙏💯

@willydicker2656 absolutely 💯
tony is the best customer a skate shop could ever hope for aha
If they are cool, I am always going to support them. I have definitely been in a few that didn't want my support, but that's cool too.
Great vid 👌 and can I just say that is a very thick board 😅
She is a big girl. Stay Rad Sir
Man I must have bought a dozen egg boards in the past 12 months and I haven’t got one of those stickers with any of them
Dude 😂 you should right to them and use my video as exhibit A. 😂
Im 47 and skate eight inch popsicle decks tried bigger boards but I prefer a skinny deck. Wouldn't mind trying a mini egg deck. That looks huge.

I put only small wheelz on the egg shape,stuck in the past BPSW era.

Stay Rad Sir.
Black Label still makes a lot of wider boards. I won’t ride anything under 9”.
Out of all the board I have skated, I still haven't skated a Black Label. I will add it to the short list. Stay Rad
i ride a 10.5 deck but its tail is a 7, that egg is MASSIVE hoooly
What do you skate?
It is massive but oddly a really good time.
Stay Rad.

Coffins are cool. I haven't skated a coffin. I need to get one for the quiver.
Stay Rad Sir
Nice set up. Looks good. What was the angle?
It was 36 degrees compared to 37 on the my standard board.
I thought about sharing it, but coulyd see a good spot to add it in.
@@AdventuresInSkateboarding All good, I just felt a little lied to, disappointed even 😂
Blaha. I will do better 😂
