    @local joe the wheels you’re riding are the regular classics. the OG classics are the conicalisj wheel. they have the same graphics but very different shape

    these are not OG Classics but regular Classics, the OG Classics are Spitfire's widest wheel I think

    Red are not the softest. All stock bushings are the same durometer. The old rebuild kit that had red bushings and washers was 90A, which is stock. The old ones in the tube were 97A, which is hard. So you're riding either stock or hard bushings.

    As a kid, I also skated whatever I could for as long as I could, now I have board madness as well, been trying different set ups lately and I’ve become pretty comfortable with an 8.25 primitive board, 5.6 Venture Hi’s, 52mm spitfire F4 tablets, I typically love lower trucks but they don’t work well with boards that have shorter wheelbases and the 8.25 primitive board has a 14” wheelbase

    I choose my trucks depending on the board I'm riding. My pop suffers greatly on thunders, and most of the twin tail shapes out there have larger wheelbases and more importantly, longer tails. Thunders are the better choice there. If I'm on a regular board with a smaller tail like 6.5 and below.. Ace all the way. The extra ride height and fulcrum/Axel moving inwards makes the leverage feel perfect to me, and I prefer the grind and turn much more. Currently getting used to Thunder team hollows and a habitat twin tail.

    I always look forward to your videos! I am a total skate nerd. The madness is real! I’ve redrilled my truck holes on my baseplates to adjust pop timing.

  • @taylorlawler3525
    @taylorlawler3525 2 года назад

    You’re the first one I’ve run into who also experiences those days where everything is slightly off and tightening the trucks a little helps reset your pop and timing. I struggle with it a lot.

    I appreciate being exposed to your board neuroses because they broaden my perspectives. For me, I’m 36 and I don’t get the greatest consistency in my frequency or length of sessions at the moment. So what I value above all else is robustness. I need to be able to have a good session at the drop of a hat on whatever equipment I have available and with the time I have allotted. So I try to actively not care about that stuff. One exception is I’ve found I like steeper concave as well so when I can I go for that type of shape.

    Adult money ftw! I haven’t found the perfect shape or setup yet. But currently I’d say around 32.25-32.5 length, 7”/6.75” nose/tail, 14.5” wheelbase, 8.5” width on 54mm Dragon V4s/Spitfire Conical Fulls and on 55 Ace AF1s with Hard replacement bushings that are medium tigth. AF1s on Hards for me still turn very, very good but are still stable enough to get a good and controlled pop.
    But I’m still searching for that perfect setup. I really like the AF1s though. I’ve tried Ventures, Thunders, Indies and Tensors as well but none turn as good as the AF1s while still being as stable as they are. It’s always a trade off. I don’t feel like the AF1s really sacrifice anything.
    I like Roam grip that I got with a deck a while back. Very large grain and apparently made for longboards but it feels like it barely loses any grip for the longest while. Bearings I’ll ride anything but Super Reds or Race Reds last me forever. I go with Enjoi Little Buddies hardware 7/8 Phillips. Lots of colours and I buy several packs so I can always match the bolts to the setup.
    Oh and I like Dwindle R7 decks. Stiffness for ages and ages unlike any other I’ve skated.

    There is an OG fix for your truck twist. Take your trucks off and put grip tape on the bottom and punch them through, lock them back down and the grip stops your trucks from ever twisting again, you are welcome.

    I tried leaving my new indy trucks alone and not tighten after crushing the top bushing the fiest day. Then my front truck almost fell out. The kingpin nut was so loose rattling around i just thought it was my wheels or hardware. Nope the trucks screwed themselves completely loose.

      I’m 6’5” 210-215. 40 year old too. I can ride the standard 90A bushings that most trucks come with and they feel super great for turning but I do feel like my stability suffers.
      Currently riding Ace AF1s with their own replacement hard bushings (94A) and a smidgen tightare than the nut being flush with the kingpin and I’ve got to say I am surprised by how stable AND turny they still feel. Was riding Titanium Indies before that with 96A yellow bushings and they felt very stable but the turn wasn’t as great as the Aces.

  • @jcsk8
    @jcsk8 2 года назад

    Thunder bushings are one of the worse I´ve ever tried. I change them without even try. Tried two times on two different trucks and their material is really bad. Worst than the stock Independent ones, wich are bad too. For me bones or similar with better uretane are the way to go. No break in period and they response as a bushing should. Just got your favourite hardness and forget about it.

      Idk about that. Switching up different parts can hinder your muscle memory, not all the time but sometimes (I know from experience). It’s better to find that perfect setup and stick with it but we as skateboard get curious and what to try other things, which is nothing wrong with that.
