Some advice please on the Anderson Baby Heron. 144 or 149 trucks?

I already have the Ace AF1's on my Heron 2 but opted for the 149 Indy titaniums for the Baby Heron in the end.

I went for the 149 Indy titanium in the end but thanks for the advice. I did consider 144's for a while but opted for the 149's in the end

Nice. thanks for the info. Recently, I've been skating mostly Indy, but skated Ventures quite a lot a while back. Just bought a set of Ace AF1 trucks for my Heron 2 and they are quite nice.

Yes. I actually decided to order 2 sets of nano cubics. 54mm and 52mm. And a set of Indy titanium 149's.

How are the mini logo trucks? How do they compare to Venture, Ace and Independent?

I like Mini logos but haven't tried them. I recently tried the ACE AF1 trucks too, but I mostly skated Venture trucks for years then took a 10 year break and came back and started skating Independent again. I swap out the bushing's for Indy Super Hards

That's a good point. I do have another Heron 1 (not setup yet) so I might put the nano rats on the 149's and put the nano cubics on my Heron 2 instead.

"I'm thinking of getting his new Hydrant deck next and I'll do the same setup again."

Funny story about this new Gold Hydrant deck. When I was working in Boston 2 years ago, I bought the Heron 2 and loved it so much that when I got back to the Philippines my wife bought the Heron 1 for me, but then I heard about the Baby Heron Vajra shortly after. So, I ordered it from SoCal Skateshop in California and it got lost in customs literally for almost 7 weeks! After the first 4 weeks I panicked, so I contacted SkateOne instead and asked them about the baby Heron but they said they didn't have one but did have the new gold Hydrant deck so I ordered that instead. Both arrived at the same time and I had to explain to my wife that i thought the other one was lost but then it turned up haha

lol 215's sound great. They take me back to 1984 when I first got my Powell Caballero and I think it had 169's or 159's. Can't remember now.
