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.

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.

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....

supergliders were designed around low, stable indy geometry...there's a reason they aren't spec'd with randals or similar trucks. randals would be too high, and if i'm told correctly, they're actually not as turny as indys.

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
