That was incredibly helpful. You are great on camera, and know your shit, Well Done

[@benjaminhohorst1602]

You a g so straight to the point, appreciated 🌊

[@HNXMedia]

Dropped serious knowledge I needed. Thanks!

[@wolfenspeign]

Thanks Man, I totally get trucks now, perfect explanation

[@Lax4life9161]

Thank you so much do more videos like these they help so much thanks

[@KontrastLongboarding]

ive taken paris trucks at 70kmh. honestly its all about the mindset and weight distribution. Nothing wrong with 50s at highspeeds, you just gotta be comfortable with your setup

[@SteezinandCheesin]

42's changed my life. I don't even DH heavily.

[@ponyexplosiontime]

i already know all about baseplates i just like ethan

[@wesleythesnail]

I love 40-44 degree trucks, they give you epic lean, which I like for freeriding and stability when you need it. Although I must agree that 50 degree trucks are pretty stable up to 70km/h

I'm putting together a skateboard and had wedges on my board when I was a teenager +30 years ago. Forgot what the angle was. I don't have a long board though. What is the maximum angle that you would recommend on a standard 30 inch board with Independent Trucks? The board is 8.5 inches wide and I bought 60mm OJ wheels. I'm more of a sidewalk surfer/cruiser with occasional need to swerve around boardwalk foot traffic.

Nice & Thanks :)

[@adrenalineryan]

Thanks❤️

[@Seldomsleeper]

Should get some Bear 852s cuz you can just switch them and get the same effect for more stability at higher speeds

[@Longboardmaestro]

hey mobo i have a question,im using an EW BR for freeriding w 50 cals and 70mm wheels w no wheelbite.im thinking of switching it to 44 calibers for freeriding.will i get a wheelbite w 70mm wheels? And also,will i get a wheelbite if i use big zigs for bombing w 44 cals?

[@jakehiatt1248]

make a video where you can decrease the angle of a 50 degree truck using wedge risers trying to get it to be like 46-48° but I'm not sure how I'd have to set if up, BTW the back are 45 degrees already so I'm running a 50/45 split

[@AndyThomson03]

Get a Khiro riser set man. It's a bit pricey but it's worth it.

[@TheLivePixelman]

FIRST and randals are the best! (My opinion)

[@samsonscholten]

Hey guys I just bought a drop speed and I'm doing downhill riding so what should I do to prevent all the speed wobbles? I'm riding bear 852 right now but is there anything I can do to make my longboard better for downhill?

[@WillBrowne1]

im here for ethan thats it

[@apmikalogran]

Angle raiser pads are a good option instead of buying new trucks ?

[@maxiboiful]

would the 40 plates help with more dh freerding

[@JayPoppy7]

so the difference is just the my sensitivity on cod, if i want it on 10 get a 50 degree truck, if not get the 42 degree?

[@CoredVideos]

What's the deal with Caliber 44s? Good for freeriding/180s?

[@kevin01725]

Can you do one on rkp trucks

[@calus3r]

@esmith0507 i took 50's on a dervish at 37mph..everything went better than expected!

[@reignofthpro]

Is Ethan still with mobo?

[@Jovaniel]

Does a angle raiser have the same effect?

[@SinnedNogara]

Jovaniel Medina Yes

[@FartinDucks]

50 but they're pretty stable still! =)

[@Endlessdonut97]

50 Cals. It would help you avoid wheelbite. Just use some harder bushings.

[@MMM19]

What degree are paris 180's?

[@justint.4254]

50 degrees i hope this awnser helps you although it is 6 years later since you asked...

[@Chinesepimp97]

yes just ganna have to shim a little@SYCSkateboards

[@Chinesepimp97]

44 that wb is already twitchy enough@DrRoryMagowan

[@abelbeans]

totally agree with most of this but id just like to remind you of one thing...Matt fucking K

[@Josh_Hutchins]

sorry dude but u dont think you need to get 44s for freeride i can do freeride fine on my 50s and ive been up to like 65/70 kmh but i would only recomend 44s if u are going faster then that which for freeride i doubt u will 50s will be fine and probebly better

[@bluerobot41]

he likes himself some 42s

[@Chinesepimp97]

50@MrTorque9

[@theelephanttaco]

[@JojoBarrientos]
