Can Nigel ruin Aaron's day or is his nightmare skateboard set up actually the best thing that ever happened to him??

I like how the ad was about how you can have it your way, and then Aaron proceeds to not have it his way

[@JonathanRickner]

Wedged risers change the turning angle of the trucks. For most normal trucks, wedged risers will make them turn quicker and feel a bit less stable at high speeds (more speed wobbles). Some slalom racers will put wedged risers in the front to make the board turn more "surf-like" and allow for a better pump in the turns (you can actually gain speed coming out of each turn by compressing and pumping out of the turn.

[@dieseldabz7104]

Ya they should've flipped them around and mounted other direction

[@kobudo]

@@dieseldabz7104 Wedge the rear truck and de-wedge the front. Make it turn more from the rear like a forklift.

[@robertstrong6639]

@@robertstrong6639 What doesn’t work? Wedge/ dewedge definitely makes the trucks turn differently.

[@entrailcupcakes9757]

The shop dude helping ruin the board was so funny LOL “Wanna make him feel like he’s on a monster truck?”

[@DanielDemchuk]

That part on vert where Aaron was just like “don’t think about it just do it” was the most valuable skateboarding tip everyone needs to remember.

[@kobudo]

Wedge risers are a holdover from slalom skating and are used by some longboarders today to change the way trucks turn. The way they’re set on this particular board in the video, you’ll get more turn from the truck for less “lean.” If the thicc ends of the riser were pointed at the nose and tail, you’d get less turniness.

[@jetingtonruseington23]

Aaron: uses the nightmare board for 2 minutes Also Aaron “My normal board is starting to feel weird”

[@dieseldabz7104]

Literally 1 trick 😆

[@Aiden.c.Taylor]

I ride wedge risers. It changes the turning radius of the board. I love to carve but I also like my trucks a little tight.

Everyone in the comments missed the joke. The BK ad and all the pixel censoring of everything was done on purpose. This video was a nightmare for Aaron, so he made sure to make it a nightmare for the fans by pretending to sell out. Great work once again Braille team!

After watching you board side the raiI I realize how we never get to see Aaron do rail tricks. I want to see some more of that! That vert ramp was also unexpected!!! You were so reluctant the first time but you just said NOT TODAY VERT RAMP

[@stubby_gnome7106]

The angled riser is great for longboards and skateboards they really help turnability of the trucks it can also make it a little harder to turn and make it lean more

[@Souls8]

I know I'm late on watching this but definitely enjoyed it! I read some of the comments and honestly a lot of people need to chill. Seeing the responses from Braille as well tells me they learned from this experience! Either way it was great seeing Aaron skate! Cheers ✌️

[@jeremyward5477]

wedged risers on downhill or slalom boards usually. they allow you to change the turning radius of each truck individually for more/less turn and stability

[@jaybird634]

I like that Aaron still skates a 7.75 . I'm on an 8.125 and its small compared too the trend of going bigger .

[@dickjohnson7432]

You guys got me into skating, and I’ll love you forever for it .

[@dieseldabz7104]

I'm actually digging that shaped Welcome deck and the way it looks as a complete. It reminds me of decks we skated in the late 80's into early 90's and I'm glad they made a comeback. I personally think every skater should try skating one for a month and maybe would have a greater appreciation for us OG's and the fact we learned all those spin and flip tricks on them. Boards only transitioned into popsicle shapes to make skating easier as time went on because newer generations couldn't skate what we learned on decades before.

[@jamesortega2340]

Older gen skates better than new gen!? Sure,.. that's the reason they made popsicle shaped boards.

[@reggieandrade4098]

All this proves is that Aaron can skate anything 😃

[@SunShineCoastStoner4]

Correct me if I'm wrong but the slanted risers are more for drop carve style boards where the trucks sit on the actual nose and tale of the board

[@Daf__XL]

Wedge risers for changing pivot angle. Usually decreased in the back and increased in the front for pumping

[@Dbskatedesigns]

My man Nigel killin me with that set up 😂

[@williambushee9446]

Wedge, riser is a normally found on longboards so you can control your turning better?

[@JimmiTheCat420]

In downhill skating we use wedgerisers to make a more stable splitangle setup for speed.

[@FriendxA]

depending on the application, wedged risers can be used to improve stability.....i use to do this on my downhill boards.

[@darkshadow-1613]

I was literally just at orbit today, and I didn’t see Nigel there :( but something cool to note is I bought that rooked board from the background which I find very cool cuz I feel like I am following the footsteps of some of the the coolest people of all time.

[@darkshadow-1613]

[@slonekaelan3127]

I have wedge risers. They came with a long fishtail board with a bunch of lights I found at a peddler’s mall. The wheels were 70 mm.

[@talareese580]

Wedge risers are common in longboarding for tweaking how easy it is to turn without loosening the trucks.

[@sgt.greenbean4155]

[@jjbassing9044]

Hey, those Nora K5s are actually sick trucks. They came broke in just about, are lighter and cheaper than indy standards, and they slide like crazy! Dont knock them!

[@chaosoul-seanleeriggs369]

Nigel makes Aaron's nightmare board...meanwhile I'm actually loving everything about that board! Only needs some deck rails...if doable with that crazy shaped edge! And that list of tricks was awesome, especially ending with the drop in! That's a big step. Sooner than you'd think, you'll be back to retraining yourself on vert (if you ever chose to do so) especially at the rate you were getting better and better until the vert injury... Now it can be a "comeback" when you're "on fire" but in your own way and on your own time! Still, honestly love the AK Nightmare board You did awesome Nigel, well done dear sirs!! Let's Go!

[@Adriancee555]

Skateboard shop guy is perfect 😂 exactly what you think a skateboard shop guy would be

[@richterwolf5230]

Yeah, so if you ask P.S. he would probably give you a bettter answer than this, but angled riser is so you create a different angle of your trucks to either increase or decrease turn-ability. Yes, for skateboards that are doing grinds and such, not so ideal because of raised kingpin as mentioned by A.K. Angled risers are usually utilized by downhill setups and slalom style longboarding, etc. It can go both ways, if you face the downward slope outward, it increases the degrees of your trucks turning, and inward would reduce it. So if you wanted trucks that coudn't turn so well, you would invert the angles and have them facing eachother, reducing the amount each truck is able to turn. the point of all this would be for things like "Long Distance Pumping" where you have a slalom style longboard, and have the front of the board allowed to turn very easily and the back of the board turn hardly. That creates a fishlike pattern where the front of the board turns quickly and deeply, while back is shallow and tight, making the board propel itself forward, and as many people know and refer to this technique as pumping (no feet on the ground). People do that for miles, hence, LDP or long distance pumping.

[@The_New_Process]

I use wedged riser for all terrain or downhill

[@lanakilashreds6782]

Varial flip on the big skateboard is so much more pleasing

[@TheAquabears]

The pixel censoring was mega distracting. If Burger King is gonna make you do that, maybe don't have them as sponsors anymore.

[@nathaniellaughlin5693]

For real. I know some sponsors only give you like 1,000 dollars for their sponsorships but idk how much Burger King gives. I wouldn’t want to go through and blurr things out for an extra 1000

[@williammadray7818]

Come on Aaron you've never heard of a wedge riser? Aaron Kyro has NEVER heard of a wedge riser?; please. The wedge riser is usually used on cruiser boards for better maneuverability and pumpability. It's also used with surf skates to improve pump ability. It's mostly used for long distance pump, (LDP) setups. True it is very seldom used in core skateboarding, word of mouth, I was told the wedge riser was used by core skateboarders occasionally in bowls for maneuverability (?). I purchased a set of Khiro 10° wedge risers to compensate for the off camber in my 44 in pintail surf skate.
