Everything I need to complete if anybody on here is interested in those risers with the bolts for the old bolt pattern on vintage trucks all brand new. Feel free to send me a DM first come first serve just send me a prepaid shipping label and I will package them up once they get to me and ship them off to you. You can see the details on them in the description, and then my two recent set ups I sharing as well just because I’m so proud of them just gotta finish up that grip tape on the Stingee Thingee as I mentioned . I’m just still trying to decide in my brain exactly how I wanna do it and what colors lol with the stencil I have on order of the honeycomb and the killer bee thing.!
Waiting on my stencil for my grip tape! it’s gonna be pretty cool. It’s la honeycomb stencil and then like a killer bee 🐝 stencil . It’s definitely gonna be a a fun one to cruise on and hit some hills so I can slide all around wit my Butterballs! love to do but it’s gonna look dope. I am just trying to decide on what two colors I’d like to use for my grip tape. I ordered the stencils from Amazon to trace on the backside of grip tape , cut it out n so forth to stick it all on the deck…. Oh and also, I’ve never used a reverse kingpin truck, but I was like im gonna slap some on here and try them out ! I’ve been dying to get the wheels n bearings on trucks too ! When I go to install the grip tape I will pull them off the deck then was it all make a couple slits through the tape with my knife and then pop everything back on!
So this deck, I have for myself set up differently. I’ve shared it here however, when I purchased it, I accidentally purchased two lol. I was gonna hang it up on the wall however my friend in his mid 40s was like I think I’m gonna go to Walmart and buy a cheap skateboard and try skating with you.. For the record he’s as cheap as they come to the point you don’t even wanna chill with him sometimes lol! Anyway, when I was out injured and so forth, he came by and he helped me around the farm and out in my yard so I told him that I would pay him an hourly rate and then I would build him a skateboard if he wanted. So anyways, what I spent to build this probably is worth more than what I owed him, and I also picked up a helmet and some safety gear for him as well. Also, I tried my best to not spend too much money but to make it decent and nice for him.. so he’s just gonna use it for cruising if he could manage to figure that out lol seriously if you guys knew him. So I went with the goal and pro threes in the sector nine wheels which I picked up from Mercari along with the hardware and the risers…. I wasn’t going crazy with some fancy grip tape design like I did on mine, but I decided to go with the clear so that way you can still see the graphic on the top side of the deck. I actually purchased this from SoCal Skate Shop I think it’s called. I ordered it online.. I got him the whole safety protection package brand new on Mercari from the private seller never used so that made me around 47 bucks with shipping I threw some stickers on the helmet for him. I spent probably about $230 maybe a little less to build this between the cost of the products and shipping.
Hi,
I Thrifted it at goodwill for 13 bucks, couldn’t find too much about it but the board itself is super cool, is wooden and painted white. Grip has a cool wave design, and overall is super cool. Can anyone tell me more about it, maybe who designed it or what its worth? Definitely keeping it for my collection
I’m planning to build a new skateboard around an 8.25” deck. I already have a cruiser board, so this new setup would mostly be for learning tricks, but I’ll also be taking it to college and might use it to ride to class occasionally.
Right now i’m learning to ollie, but I’m not doing anything crazy yet. I want a setup that will let me keep learning tricks without being awful to ride around campus for short distances.
I’m trying to figure out what parts would make the most sense:
Trucks for an 8.25” deck
Wheel size and hardness
Whether I should go with harder trick wheels like 99a, or something more hybrid like 92a–97a
Good bearings/hardware/grip recommendations
After years of a slow decent into madness, I think I’ve finally built my perfect complete. For the record, your boy is 34 years old, 210 lbs, and standing tall at 5’6”. The shoes have been the biggest godsend and the final piece of the puzzle. Currently rocking New Balance Numeric 480 Wide 10.5. A perfect shoe combined with my Footprint Gamechangers to help support these old calves! I’ll post the complete specs below:
Deck: Glass House Skateboards Logan Taylor pro model “Possessed” 8.375 wide 31.5 inch length and 14 inch wheelbase Nose 7 inch Tail 6.75 inch
Trucks: Thunder 148 Hollow Light ll Forged Baseplate Hollow Kingpin and Hollow Axle 51 mm tall with 95 duro medium Thunder Bushings three washers on the inside of the wheel and one on the outside
Wheels: Spitfire soft sliders 93 duro Ishod Pro Shape Lock-in shape interior, classic shape exterior. Width is 33 mm Riding Surface is 19 mm.
Bearings: Bronson G3 Mason Silva Pro model with bearing spacers
Risers: Krooked soft plastic pink 1/8
Griptape: Mob black and clear
Hardware: Bronze hardware 1 inch allen black bolts bronze nuts
Been skating for almost a year and picked this up a day ago
slap some risers independents and spitfire on there
Hello guys!! I need your advice for sizing.
I'm into starting skateboarding again and I'm thinking of a new setup. My old one was a deck 7.875.
I'm a female, 33 years old, 157cm approx 52-54 kg and my shoes are European size 37-38. I really need new trucks. Many people tell me to get a deck size 8. I don't have enough money to experiment so this dissision will follow me for a couple of years.
I was using a high concave jart board and hollow & little bit high trucks. I need my setup to be more light than others that need for feel the weight of the board. I'm not into street,only skateparks. I also do tricks up to kickflip. I'm feeling my board tiny when I land but I'm also tiny.
I need your advice! Thank you for reading this \m/
Hi, I recently got this pair of Indy trucks for 60€. Can anyone tell me if they are stage 7 or 8 (or maybe something else?
So I found a bunch of boards for free in a the suburbs on a sidewalk, and I saw this board made of fiberglass that had a green goblin on it. I realized it was paint, and when I searched up the board I saw it did not have the goblin on it, only the moonshine pot. So now I want to remove the paint on it so I can increase the resale value of the board. Any tips on how to do that without possibly damaging the board?
My fiance left this behind when he passed away. It was his pride and joy, but I have no skill and three left feet - plus it's enormous. I'd rather find someone who will love it.
Smaller harder wheels for the Dressen deck!
