So I went to a used gear auction that happens 2 times a year at a local shop, and I ended up getting a 80 dollar dervish and 10 dollar 74mm 78a RF's to replace a broken board.
Both were in awesome condition. Just a little broken in.
So I set it up with some indy 169s...
So now I am happy
EDIT: Grip tape fun

If you CAN afford it, you still don't have to get some.

You know, really they're all just about the same. Topmounts, dropthroughs, drops. Just looking at them, they're all pretty similar. If you find a particular deck you like riding, get more and paint/grip 'em to make them special. I like my Knuckys because of what I've done to them. They're not ugly. They're not the ones I automatically think of to ride though either.

Yeah man it's sooooo sick!
I suggest anyone with a dervish try indys on it.

may i ask why? never ridden indys before but ppl seem to rave about them
I'm not a huge indy fan (I'm more of a randal style truck person) but they give you much more wheel clearance on boards, are really low, turn pretty good, and drift well too.
