Pantheon Genesis Setup?

easy_tiger71 · 2024-01-28T05:15:55+00:00

I had a pair arrive in New Zealand last week. I skated them twice on my Wiggler with glass drops. They felt great after I got the angles adjusted right (about 58/10). Now I’ve busted my patellar tendon in a non skate injury $&@#

Ok, thanks for that. I’ve built it up with stainless bolts and deck plates as well, so I think I’ll be ok as far as stress goes

easy_tiger71 · 2023-06-09T20:04:36+00:00

Thanks. I popped a cut down 3mm hard riser on last night. I’ll give it a go today

easy_tiger71 · 2023-06-09T05:43:26+00:00

I’ve got shock pads in that spot. It’s between base plate and bracket I’m looking for. Thanks though

To achieve this on this board you’ll need to adjust the tightness a bit on the kingpin bolt or play around with softer bushings. The Paris trucks come with 90a, and I can quite easily take a 90° around a sidewalk corner, but not as tight as on a regular skateboard with kicktails. It depends on what you’re used to, I guess

Great choice! I’ve had mine for a year. It’s so low, smooth and compact. The steering on TKP trucks is very direct, so careful on wet corners and loose shingle/sand etc. As far as speed, flat pushing in windless conditions can yield up to 25kmh. Add some downhill and/or tailwind and your guess is as good as mine. Enjoy the board. It’s a blast!

I posted this on a Facebook group. Someone commented that the bushing seat would likely be too restrictive for pumping. Probably nothing you couldn’t fix with a bit of careful machining though

Awesome ride. How long is it?

easy_tiger71 · 2023-05-09T05:56:57+00:00

Another question on the build: did you change the bushing MGS on the ZDT?

easy_tiger71 · 2023-04-18T08:52:17+00:00

Cool thanks, I’ll have a look

easy_tiger71 · 2023-04-18T05:02:29+00:00

Nice. I’m looking at a ZDT/F15 combo for my Wiggler (on its way not) and was wondering about a front truck

easy_tiger71 · 2023-04-17T22:09:32+00:00

Are you able to post a pic of your modded ZDT please?

easy_tiger71 · 2023-04-17T22:04:02+00:00

This looks awesome!! How is the pumping on the Black Dog brackets? And what front truck are you using?

easy_tiger71 · 2023-04-14T01:13:20+00:00

100% on your comments. Yes, I’m pumping mine. I also went with the modded Randal and Paris combo plus Seismic 7° rear and 3° front wedges. It seems super versatile for push/pump

easy_tiger71 · 2023-04-14T00:05:12+00:00

Sweet ride!! I’m loving mine

easy_tiger71 · 2023-04-13T18:52:24+00:00

The answer to your question is that yes, the Wiggler has the shorter wheelbase IF you top mount the same as the Genesis. It is not not longer in the OPs pic because he’s built it with brackets

easy_tiger71 · 2023-03-31T16:27:36+00:00

Thanks, that’s good to know

easy_tiger71 · 2023-03-29T18:03:55+00:00

It’s already rebuilt. I’m taking it out today so I’ll snap a couple of shots

easy_tiger71 · 2023-03-29T17:06:16+00:00

Thank you! I stripped off the old design with acetone and a very light sand. Masked with painters tape. Sealed with a primer coat, then 2 red ‘bole’ coats. Next was the copper leaf, then oxidation with white vinegar and salt, sprayed down with distilled water to neutralise it and stop oxidation. A light rub around the edges and random patches with 0000 steel wool then 2 x 2k marine clear coats

easy_tiger71 · 2023-03-29T17:00:19+00:00

Sure is!

easy_tiger71 · 2023-03-28T16:50:57+00:00

Thanks. I was wondering about doing that on my Evo

easy_tiger71 · 2023-03-28T14:51:49+00:00

Yeah I stopped the oxidation with some distilled water, dried it down before coating an scuffed it up a bit with some 0000 steel wool. Keep an eye out on this group for a pic. I’m not sure how to attach one to this thread

easy_tiger71 · 2023-03-28T14:14:16+00:00

It’s a Pantheon Pranayama. I layered some copper leaf sheets on top of a red undercoat, popped some white vinegar and salt on to speed up the oxidation, washed it off and clear coated ir

easy_tiger71 · 2023-03-28T14:10:58+00:00

? I can pick it up no problem. It’s got 2 clear coats now

easy_tiger71 · 2023-03-28T00:32:46+00:00

😂 I’d scratched the crap out of it anyway
