Good wood, good design, you'llprobably want 169 indy's with 1/2" spacers, wheel bearing everyone has there view's on what's best, but for me anything above 59mm is all good. Bearings same goes, but for me Lucky hardballs. Hope this helps!     Rate post 243513 !

It is to be named the Reid Menzer Memorial Skatepark, in honor of local skater Reid who was killed January 22, 2006 while riding his streetluge. You can help by purchasing black-and-white checked wristbands (ala Vans shoes) with Reid's initials (REM) and the motto "Live...Breathe...Jam" for 5 dollars each. There is a minimum order of 5 by mail ($25.00). Please consider getting together with a few skaters/friends and helping to make this park a reality. For details, go to: http://reidmenzermemorialskatepark.org/Fundraising.html Home page: http://reidmenzermemorialskatepark.org/Home_Page.html Thanks, Dan     Rate post 243502 !

I had placed an order right when they were changing their computer systems and it got mixed up. I took a while but they stuck with it and even compensated me with some extra stuff (thanks Ashley!). Great products and the new red "street" wheels work great on tranny.     Rate post 243161 !

But three hours away, Kansas city has itself three recent parks within 10 minutes of each other. Shralp hand poured concrete, blast over a loveseat on the backside of a cradle, grill and ride round walls as smooth as your bathroom sink. pretty sick. Check out the Shawnee park its a must.     Rate post 243124 !

Try the pool at Romford in east London. http://www.concretedisciples.com/bbs/index.php?action=vthread&forum=9&topic=14250 If you haven't been to Rom... it's another classic 70s British park. Better than Rom though.     Rate post 243015 !

LBR, Buckit and Kuhn and Co. are very good people. "There" wheels and boards are of fine quality. Maybe you are just an idiot or some such thing?     Rate post 242763 !

I prefer the orange 97a's myself but I see a ton of people on the greens. Lindsey, Buckit and the entire Conspiracy crew are putting out serious quality products and not just wheels. Everyone should have Conspiracy product in their stash.     Rate post 242419 !

The 60-96's are less "skittery" to me and feel better. In general, the no-skoolz are very nice wheels. They are wide and have a far better feel and control (to me) than the narrower wheels. Plus, the board just sits and looks better with a wider wheel. I was toying with trying some 92's or 94's in pools. I found the 65mm versions are just too heavy and dont react as fast. Once they get going, you are definitely cooking. I do use them on one of my retro style boards, but not on my regular tranny/roundwall boards.     Rate post 242244 !

Chris makes the 65mm No Skoolz only up to a 96a. In pools and parks I've been riding the 60mm/98a for about 3 years exclusively. I won't ride anything else. Get the Biltin bearings with whatever ABEC11's you go with.     Rate post 241708 ! Best-Of Ncdsa (0)   Informative (0)   Abuse(0)   Flag Moderators (0)
