New Skateboard Setup: Pictures

This is the new setup:

  • Chocolate deck, 8"
  • Venture trucks, wide
  • Spitfire wheels, 57mm
  • Bones Reds bearings

Last night was the weekly Redcar session, which was my first opportunity to try it out. It was all good. Definitely a little faster on the ramp, but apart from that, I didn't notice much difference, except that it's all new. It felt good to skate, and it had that solid 'pop' feel.

I seem to be doing pretty well with the number of times I'm getting out, and the improvement is following. No major advances, but I'm feeling much better around the coping. I had quite a few slams last night so the body's been a little tender today. Just gotta keep it up now and hopefully bag some new tricks...
