I consider tech sliding and street, dancing. Break dancing, but still dancing.

PS: Is there a 62mm 84a Crewzer wheel?

Haha, you still dream about your 84a crewzer in Road Rage thane? Wet dreams?

I figure that if I nag enough, I might make it happen. It's impossible to win unless you try.

RELEVANCE: In a few days I get to ride my 62mm and 72mm Slide-As for the first time (I use to ride 65mm on a Thruster, buy they bit). Stoked.

Oh yeah in the spirit of nagging in hopes of new badass EW gear... I still lobby for New Brian's Bigfoot to be put out for limited run!

rode 65s in the beginning but only do 62 now. Jerzey has been rocking the new hightailer (1 ply thinner) and those 72s and IT IS SO MUCH FUN!! doing 3z on that beast is a blast!

About to get some new wheels to THE one (Belly Racer <3). I'm not sure if I'm posting this right now but, do you think 72mm wheels would fit on the smallest wheelbase with 50* 10" calibers? W/o risers/shockpad then.

**brooklynbomber718** · 03-03-2012 02:57 PM

i think you'd have to run a pretty stiff bushing setup to get that to not bite. if you like your trucks loosey goosey then you should probably throw on some riser.

If you run Calibers, put them on the long wheelbase, they line up with the wells better.
I can run my 44s there super loose with 70mm wheels and no bite.

My EW Arsenal -

Current:
Red (man)Thruster
OG Paloma Rapido
...and as always, tons of EW wheels (my fave)

Coming soon:
Murdered (man)Thruster
The Smoker
Some top secret OG EW goodness

To hell with enlisting. I'm going straight to officer's school. I can't wait for The Smoker. I got some Revenge trucks waiting for it.

I know graphics don't matter, but the graphic on the new Drifter is sick.

**8ftbed** · 03-05-2012 12:32 PM

I'm sick over the fact the graphic seems to be split between the different sizes of the new Drifter. I want the whole enchilada or at least the head shots on the bigger deck.
