What's your setup at the moment?

[@justusmakinen7733]

8" polar board, 139 indy mids with venture loose bushings, 58mm portland wheel co wheels wimdmill bearnings and random hardware it looks pretty intersting whit huge wheels and really loose trucks in small board

[@smallfaucet]

I use my board to get dead skin off my heels.....I know......pathetic.

[@robertblackmore703]

Deathwish 8.5 Foy twin. Thunder hollow team. Reds. 99a Formula 4 conical full 53 (prob about 50 now… I ride wheels forever when they’re solid)And the worst grizzly grip ever. They sent it to me folded, and it just never flattened out properly, so it’s bubbly and looks wack.

[@madjc13]

A very common setup 8.5 board 1.49 thunder 51mm wheels Raw bearings Mob grip 1 inch bolts

[@IIchiTheKiller]

Currently, 8.0 Deathwish 14.25WB 31.5, ROYAL 144s, Ricta Naturals 52mm

[@brandenriddick6105]

Love,Love,Love,theses segments!!! So dope to hear the pro's brake downs they're setups and why they set them up the way they do. Thank Y0U guys The Nine Club🤝❤

[@ItsKyleBrah]

I'm digging these board set up videos! Also his episode was great! Glad yall got him on!

[@j-mac7401]

I was hoping we were gonna be able too see Markovich's setup.... And of course the 9 club gents came through.....

[@ambassador724]

very special story - thanks for the upload, much love.

[@TheGhostOfFredZeppelin]

Love to see him out there ripping still! I remember in the first skate video I ever owned on VHS, 411vm issue 44 he had a day in the life segment and already back then said he's "no spring chicken" and jumping down stuff kinda hurts haha. That was in 2001 and he's still at it, gotta love his love for skateboarding.

[@smallfaucet]

So rad he still rips like that.......its takes me a minute to get off my bed these days.

[@EDDIEM0NS00N]

I've been waiting so long for this, & the Nine Club full episode interview of Kris for so long. One of the most influential, stylish & exciting skaters that has ever existed, & he still has those awesome skills even to this day. My favourite ever board with my fondest memories was in fact a Element Natas Instinct deck from the late 90s/early 2000s. And the funny thing is that not only did I have many of the same deck because it was just so perfect, but I, like Kris, also found that the yellow top & bottom stain ply version felt lighter & poppier too, & still prefer that combo to this day. But the most amazing thing is that this line of Element decks was a new construction called Featherlight construction, & this complete Legend, Kris Markovich, designed this specific construction at PS Stix for Element! I'm really hoping for a full part from this Legend next. Stay true Kris your style & tricks are still top level ,❤️❤️

[@eatassonthefirstdate]

I remember when featherlight decks came out like 99 I think? But ya it was always blue n yellow on them featherlight decks!

[@ncrtx]

Love this segment; keep it going

[@yunglifty3523]

really enjoyed him talking about his griptape madness. glad i’m not alone

[@VikingAF1111]

Thank you Chris for all your inspiration when I was a teenager you were than I was. The shop I was sponsoredby in 96/97 brought in an extra box of your decs for me every month. I always rode your pro model for element. Here’s to being young now older but not obsolete. Thank you again Chris.

[@liquidpixel2055]

*Kris lol

[@libramoon9968]

He thought he was Chris Miller

[@Jeremya74]

It's Kris not Chris..he's my buddy don't u dare misspell his name

[@christophersawyer253]

Old but not obsolete! Love that Terminator reference. I always rode the Element J Wray. Dont even know how many I had. Loved those featherlite boards.

[@burna803]

I remember kris from his foundation days and the tony hawk how to videos. Pretty dope dude

[@lochieaxon]

love this series

[@eriklona8806]

Just got back into skateboarding after years. And now that I have money, and some technique to skateboarding, I am getting really nitpicky about how it feels to ride a skateboard and what works and what doesn't. It's still interesting to me the whole layer color deal, I've heard that from other skateboarders, some don't skate red tops, they only skate blue or blank, etc. Ever since I started landing tricks, I would only skate firm bushings and they'd be really tight. I bought a few packs and found out my new comfort is mid bushing but still tight. Went through 3 sets of wheels to figure out what ones felt the best too 😅

[@jcanuck163]

I remember the whole bolt OCD thing on his setup in 411vm 55. I myself since then have had the same OCD when putting my bolts and trucks on

[@rev_wayJ]

We all got the madness when it comes to setups

[@oniongummy8969]

Getting Destructo money and fooling the kids, a class act

[@liquidpixel2055]

I fucking love this guy.

[@JoeShitTheRagMan_GravelGurdy]

I love this, I am the same way when I set up my boards. Shoes also has to be tied a specific way otherwise I'm going insane :D Never understood the whole no red layers thing though, the colors of the plys is probably the only thing I don't really care about

[@rumpledxkn]

Probably a dumb question, but... is there really anything to it or is it just superstition?

[@cv6531]

@@rumpledxkn superstition. Supposedly the red dye weakens the ply.

[@extraniceness]

YOU CAN'T FRONT ON MARKOVICH! STRAIGHT UP SUPER RIPPER STYLEE DUDE!

[@mc540flip]

Glad you’re still ripping Kris! Your Nine Club interview was great.

[@MOXATRON]

DGK 8.25 roses deck with Thunder 148, indy 1"bolts, Bones Swiss, Spitfire's Formula four 54mm and Nothing Supplies Grip.

[@ImBlackSnowTNA]

Crimson skateboards had cool graphics always wanted one

[@Backlashed]

caught cheating on his truck company, lol, Indy doesn't seem to mind CRob riding thunders!

I have a pair of 9 inch krux. Looking for a deck to fit it. Currently

[@scottieskatan4219]

I must be the only skater that I know that has always gripped up the board Last after putting the trucks on,cover them bolts up haha love these lads can't wait for more....

[@colossalfart]

I believe Omar Salazar grips over the bolts too.

[@scottieskatan4219]

@@colossalfart sweet not the only freak then hahahaha

[@rajs4719]

My first ever real board was a Kris Markovich Blind board in 2003/2004

[@christophersawyer253]

I have several in my quiver. 9.25 Heated Wheel down to 8.5 Creature. Always Indy. Really wanna try them new stage 4. New Bones Dragon 🐉 wheels or sometimes a Chris Miller bones SPF. Bones Red Bearings Don’t care about grip preference or bolt preference. Vans shoes

[@rumpledxkn]

Yo! I hear Crob talk about it all the time, but..... putting your trucks on like that isn't madness. It's the proper way to do it so they're all even. Think about changing a tire, same thing. I was always taught to tighten them down but not too much then finish tightening in the same pattern. I just thought how that part of life worked. Never considered it madness.

[@WHDRWN]

defs not madness considering worn baseplate holes are referred to as "idiot loops"

[@michaelcardoso286]

these are sweet

[@wtfRyantater]

I'm very partial to green top boards for some reason

[@OtBe]

He rules on board, but damn if he doesn't look like every guy at any given randumb bar trying to sell you hubbas.

[@Cegros]

People try to sell you wheels at bars?

[@CrankVault]

Get outta here with that. We don’t care about how he looks. The dude is a skateboarding legend and still shreds. We listen to the nine club cause we love it and there’s nowhere else like it. Nowhere else can you look under a video and see positive comments only.

[@johneapleseed6876]

No risers because of Sheffey too. 👍

[@Dthesun]

what's with the random zoom ins? was roger drunk as usual

[@smallfaucet]

Who used to set up their board, then put the grip on??

[@ericswan3011]

I still do that 😂

[@WHDRWN]

25 to life, no parole

[@thedude11890]

Macaroni!!!!!!

[@SDXStudio]

"fuck i'm jackin that" - ain't it right, kris. every piece of madness i have is stolen from someone else.

[@eVerProductions1]

Silver still makes trucks??

[@edwin0404]

Crimson board?!

[@booftoot]

it blows my mind that silver trucks are still in business some how, like who tf rides silver trucks.....no lol

[@Bonesph]

Orange background..

[@Unusualsuspect24]

Super specific! I’ll never understand graphic on the inside ha

[@Bonesph]

That's what I used to do when I skated.

[@Bonesph]

@surf city Like the graphic side of the wheel faces each other.

[@darkwingduck7212]

There should be a format, width, length, wheelbase, and it’s a plus if you know your nose and tail length. Then everything else is whatever!

[@soultothedirt]

why would you willingly skate silver trucks? 🤣

[@robertjohnpaterson4304]

Seems methy?

[@bennyshambles]

Yeah. I get that impression as well.

[@sk8erx0877]

Skates for silver but is riding Indy’s. Lol 😂

[@dneck]

no orange plies... doesn't like orange. SO YOU PUT HIM IN FRONT OF AN ORANGE BACKGROUND? how could you?

Zzzzzzzz
