I fucking love Rowley! I haven’t been able to skate since 2012 (wheelchair bound, non-skate related), but I can still remember my setup that I skated daily for nearly a decade. 8.25 board, loose Indys, Swiss bearings, and a set of wheels that I had skated so much that they measured around 44mm. Anytime I’d buy new wheels, they’d flat spot on me, so I’d go back to the old ones that were perfectly smooth! I was a ballsy kid doing hill bombs with those things.

When i first started skateboarding, I was riding 7.5 boards for about 10-12 years. now days i ride anything betweene 7,8 to 8,1 I used Thunder trucks for a verry long time too, but some months ago I switched to Venture trucks, and so far i think i like venture better
@caanrdlroesa4 жыл бұрын
I first started skating a 7.5 back in the day when I was in middle school. Just picked up skating again (10 years later) and started with a 7.75 but recently just got an 8 and its been the best decision yet. Back in the day an 8 was considered big lol. Now I see these young kids only riding 8’s and higher.
@rwirtz77 Жыл бұрын
I skated Indy's back in the 90's, guess that was stage 7. I ride Thunders now, i did try out some Indy Stage 11 but i didnt care for them and i ride my Thunders 147 on 1/8 risors 56mm wheels so i like the Indy height but they felt like electronic Indys, super sharp turning and when landing and missing a trick they would stay turned, i took them off and i'm Thunders only now.

8.5 deck with hi thunder trucks and 50mm wheels and medium tightness. Feels like surfing with fast responsiveness and good pop and fast flicks and good manual balances
@AskYaMommyBoutMeBoi Жыл бұрын
Sure thing buddy. Good pop with 50mm and thunder his? Sounds like a piece of shit 😂. A clunky looking setup and with nipples for wheels. Just need some hydraulics and you good for a go.

@craighawley39202 жыл бұрын
I'm riding a 8.0 currently and keep looking at Rowleys freedome decks and they all seem huge. Especially as I had his old Flip New Wave Motorhead deck and that was a 7.75". I never thought he would be riding a 9" deck like the latest Motorhead ones he dropped.
