double barrel khiro reds. stable as HELL

I agree. Randal 160mm DH hangars on Paris plates with pink/green Karrot bushings and it's nowhere close to biting under my 200ish pounds.

Nemmy -- lowered shoulders, tapered rear toeside rail
kaha/venom
75a fly's

This setup will not last. I'm sick for a topmount.

coolio! i like it!

The deck is sick. It just needs some 50 deg randals. The kahas will continue to race but I just need them on a topmount with a ~30wb. At the moment I can find no such deck that strikes my fancy... especially since I need tons of deck space at the same time.

y do so many people use the DH race, its width is kinda small, just by looking @ pics.
But untill i step on the board i guess ill nvr know.
looks like im going to muirs this weekend and test some boards see if thats actually too narrow.
between this and evo

Not that many people use the dh race anymore actually. It is really narrow. The evo is more comfortable IMO, although I like topmounts better.

**FlamingLongboarder** · 08-15-2009 01:07 AM

I want too.

Caster Town, what do you mean by "lowered shoulders" on the Nemesis? The only thing I can think of is that you sanded the parts near the drop further and made the same "gnar bar" shape that's on the Switch and Dually.

No, i had the front holes redrilled backward using the original holes (the front inner holes)....which would set it at around 32in.

why waste your time cutting?

there once was a ravenous beehive squirrel that went by the name of ungoij. ungoij chops his boards to use as bait for the wild mountain hyennas, which love to eat chopped boards; and whatever might be on or around them. this includes trucks, wheels, bearings, and skateboarders. dont chop your boards, youll get eaten by wild mountain hyeeeeenas

Did someone mention JJ?

It actually weighs less then an Evo.

**Jat** · 08-15-2009 05:58 AM

Madrid Sean Mallard flush
Smokies 174mm with red and green venom barrels
Lime Bigzigs

I had no idea I'd feel this comfortable at speed when I started long boarding.

see if you cant get ahold of a v1 insect firefly. i got one awhile back and it kicks ass!

**Petary791** · 08-15-2009 09:18 AM

The v1 Insect Firefly certainly is interesting. I thought the lack of concave was weird.

I'm just waiting on my Madrid topmount to arrive and I'll be transferring my Voodoo setup over. I'll be keeping it on the 28" wheelbase for most things and probably moving it out to 30" for 40+. Or I'll just continue to strengthen my ankles and leave it at 28".
