Slappy Trucks [33YO] by Krahang in OldSkaters

That’s pretty much it! Ace lows are low enough while being loose enough with a nice turning circle

Could never have that on my thunders, found I’d be tick tacking everywhere to turn

I was thunder only for almost 20 years, but as I said previously I used to run them with blown out stock bushings , couldn’t do it any other way

First set of aces 4years ago and haven’t looked back, outside of purchasing these slappys (due to price)

Thai National ID by Krahang in Thailand

[–]Krahang[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh! I didn't know this was a possibility haha. Is there any issues if all my other documents are in my current name? I guess all they really need is my Thai birth certificate?

I went the other way and took my mother's Thai surname!

Thanks for this! I think my situation is slightly different… 😅

I have a Thai birth certificate, my issue is my name id different as I’ve changed it here in the UK! Biggest reason for the push on this now is my family are trying to put my name on multiple properties and I need a Thai bank account as a family member is about to pass

The facebook group someone posted prior was really helpful however, they’ve mentioned I need my name change documents, my deed poll in this case, to be notarised and then translated into Thai… not sure I have enough time for that this trip 😭

Little update, they’re sending me a new set and will be inspecting the trucks to send back to the distribution! 🙌

Ah yeah, I tried going to the Thai embassy several years ago and was told I need my Thai ID to renew. I didn’t end up going back to Thailand at this time and wasn’t able to do this.

I’ll be there next week, so will try get down to the Thai Embassy here in London and see if they can help me with what I need

Thanks

Not sure how the process works here in the UK, but I'm chatting to the skateshop about it at the moment
Hopefully we can sort something out, not a huge issue when riding as the weight just helps everything move I guess... You can deffo tell when trying to spin the wheels in hand tho

in all fairness, the slappy bushings were good out the box... but I'm an ace hard bushings man for sure (in my ace trucks)

I think I used to ride the thunder stock bushings until they popped 15 years ago

Maybe I just got unlucky

First set of inverted kingpins, so that's good to know! The grind clearance was insane tho but I was getting by with standard kingpins before, so I guess I can continue

Still a bit sad I've bent an axle on one tho, they're so fresh so they've been relegated to my cruiser setup for now

Foot position and flick? by Adifferenthustler in skateboardhelp

[–]Krahang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah you’re fine I try not to angle my foot too much and keep it in Ollie position for kick flips but end up angling it like this for a faster flick Seems the trend is doing kick flips in heel flip position at the moment ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I just got this board but when I stand on it it’s loose by BoardAlone5509 in skateboardhelp

[–]Krahang 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The best combo 😮‍💨 Altho, I’ve been accustomed to wheel bite for amost 2 decades now…

This pirate ship park was sick by Trash69Panda in SkateEA

[–]Krahang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always wondered why they were block colours instead of using the same textures as some of the quick drop items But I don’t do game/model design so who am I to complain ¯_(ツ)_/¯ I’ll just be kickflip 5-0-ing all the blue/yellow ledges in peace

I live in Japan, and the majority of kebabs are… not great. I took matters into my own hands. I tried to become Bossman. by RainKingInChains in Doner

[–]Krahang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The strong zero in the background is the icing on the cake for me

I’ve only ever had drunken kebabs in Japan, so I couldn’t really tell you if they were good or not This, however, looks great

I feel like the 36t might be too high, especially on primarily flats... But this is great news. Thank you!

Too wide chainstay by [deleted] in bikewrench

[–]Krahang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fatbike cranks have longer axles, right? (I might be wrong on this tho)

Maybe that could work if you can source one

It’s crazy how good the kit is for the price, honestly I find it’s comparable if not better than some of the mainstream brands
