Longboarding Resources & Q/AGet or give friendly, patient answers to, "Which board should I get?", "How do I stop?" or "What's wedging and how do I do it?"
Not particularly, though I do ride it at the park from time to time. These are very thin boards. Just a little more substance to grab onto, especially when wearing slide gloves or wrist guards.
oh yeah....
yes I did. Streettrack/Indy Quicktrack(aggro)/Ace. Abec domed steps/Venoms.
No pivot cups. Teflon, duct, and electrical tape. A work in progress.
Turns butter smooth (and a lot).
Hilarious graphic, pix. Comments are in Tagalog or something so can't tell what's going on.

That's awesome, that's just about the coolest thing I have seen in a long time. He said he is going to spoof a bigfoot, which is a spoof on powell's animal chin, which is a spoof on a missing persons milk carton...classic.

yeeeahhhhh. Looks dope.
Moar bushing!!!!! Jimz bottoms smooth things out a little, eh Arch? Glad to see someone else likes big gobs of thane in itty bitty Indys. I think Wells may have also ran his this way at one time.
Looks like a fun board.

Thanks, heap. Haven't had a chance to ram it into anything yet. The whole world is frozen.
I love the indys like that and the thing's perfect for me the way it is. There's a white bottom up front for a little more turn. But obviously I'm going to have to try the venom stims when they're out....

i'm gonna add a little footnote here and say that my best results have come with tracker RTX/S on the superglider; i found that indys feel quite solid and not very turny, even with a very loose bushing setup
also, has anybody tried ventures on a superglider? i got a set that i just might wanna try
