Here's a pic when she was still pretty new (except the trucks)

Executioner
Indy 169's w/ Bones hardcores
Slide A's w/ Bones Reds

The reds are about shot out now after 10 months of abuse and cleaning and the wheels have changed a few times, had Stingers as well and Slide A's again...

I only have one slide deck and I love it right now. I could get better trucks, but whatever. I'd say I'm doing pretty well for myself on it.
