    Default Hosoi Hammerhead

    Hey, I'm thinking of setting up a Hosoi Hammerhead with Indy trucks and 96a NoSkoolz.

    How would the Hosoi Hammerhead be as a sliding deck?

    I've thought about it. Go for it, should be sick. I know for a fact that VolvoGuy loves his...

    No you won't (nor with 65mm NoSkools either), but I'd consider at least one 1/8 soft riser to protect the bottom of your board and give you a little bit of a shock absorber between the wheels and your feet.

    The 36" would bea killer slider, i've slid mine in garages a bit, and the concave keeps your feet in place real well. And it's a WICKED park board too. The 30" has no concave to it at all, so it might not be that great to slide.

    Yeah, I'm gonna go for the 36" version. I'm pumped.

    Do you run risers on your setup?
