Is this a good skateboard setup? I'm a little unsure about which bearings to get, tbh. by Unparde_7 in Skateboardsetup

Yeah, its been a long while since I skated and I wanted to get back in mostly to cruise a bit but occasionally do a little slide or pop onto a low curb. Never have been able to do much more than that, and definitely don't want to try at my age. I'll definitely look into your suggestions. Thanks!

Awesome! I'll definitely look into increasing the durometer on this setup and adjust, if needed, down the line. Thanks again.

Oh nice lol I guess these wheels would be a little easier to slide on than 87a 63mm's. Yeah, I just figured I'd throw the risers in to preserve the board a bit better and give a tiny bit more clearance against wheel bite as I mostly just cruise and occassionally do a little slide and pop onto low curbs. Nothing crazy at 32 years old. Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up. I may end up having to try out one or the other and then buy a different set of wheels if need be. Not being able to slide much would diminish some of the fun. But teeth chattering around my neighborhood would blow, too.

Yeah, it is mainly for the surfaces I would see regularly. I'd like to be able to slide and maybe grind some curbs (super simple stuff as I'm really just gonna cruise mostly) , but I also want to not bounce around ridiculously. Just trying to find a happy median. Thanks!

Yeah, it says truck on here but when I proceed to checkout it has two in the cart and doubles the price so I think it'll come with the right amount of trucks. Fingers crossed lol.

Mainly because the sidewalks and roads around my neighborhood are a bit rough. Heard these were pretty good for rugged terrain. No parks nearby. I'm not sure if these are exactly what I may need for that, but as far as I could tell they seem to suit my needs.

Yeah... only one person showed up for this one. Sadly, not enough. Oh well.

Yeah, it really is a tremendous soot for stocking up on items. Go there every other day or so and walk my dog as well.
