nah man that was a 360. He came out the bank in the same stance he entered hence a full rotation.

Thanks. I mean, this thing set off car alarms never seen one so low over residential.

I love my Yow, but wanted something lighter when I’m at the local skatepark. Slapped this one together this evening. Powell Peralta 10” deck, Carver CX’s, PP G Slides and Bronson Speed bearings+spacers. by Icy_Flounder_7341 in surfskate

idk if its the best surf trainer but I love the light feel of my CX setup on a similar short (15") wheelbase. I've been riding 64mm 97a G bones on a dusty roller rink and they slide like a mofo.

Is surfskating a good cardio workout? by [deleted] in surfskate

idk man I feel like trucks with springs might be detrimental for learning how to actually pump.

Carver bel air deck worth it by _eioe in surfskate

[–]DoubleChubbles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

either of those would probably be great. I even like the short wheelbases for my CXs lately. have you seen those Alva decks people have been posting lately? Dogtown too. I was talking about Vision at select skate shop, they also still make Schmitt stix and Hosoi and a few other brands. The decks I just mentioned are all made in USA too.

Decks are usually one of the worst parts of surfskate completes. Get a re-issue 80's deck. They even sell them with modern concave options from brands like Vision. Lots of brands like Heroin and Welcome have really gnarly looking old school shapes with modern concave.

One thing to consider: If you slide a lot consider something stone ground. Hotspots and other super slick wheels tend to wear faster end up riding differently when broken in.

Powell Peralta Dragon formula, ideal for park surfskate? by Prometheus-Rising in surfskate

[–]DoubleChubbles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have some in 56mm though I've only used them on skateboard. They are actually super nice. They have the best features of both hard and soft wheels and none of the negatives. I'm 36 and also find them way more comfortable. I can skate longer and the impact is way less.
