I race a Landy evo with Bear Gizzlies 1052 and 76 flys

I also ride

Loaded Vanny with Randal 180s with custom bushings and 71mm 71a dyed bennett alligators.

Loaded Vanny cut LDP with 6.0 Bennett Vector up front, Tracker Rt-S in back (Both wedged to the appropriate degree and have custom bushing set-up) and 72mm 71a Bennett Allis in front and 72mm 68a Bennett Allis in back.

31" Arcane rockered mini (the first prototype, one of a kind) with wedged Bennett Vectors front and back. stock bushings in back and franken khiros up front. And 66mm Retro Zigs.

I have 4 other set-ups I don't use.

The sidewinders?

Quiver from a couple months ago. It isn't updated, a lot of those have been sold and modded.

Yeah, I tried sliding for a bit. I think I'm going to give it another shot. I can do some of the basics. Still can't pendy for shit.

I've got the gravity slide gloves. With NBS sliders. I usually use it for DH

I'm liking that black speedboard in the picture.


hah alex, that thing is fucking awesome, what did you make it out of btw, a gigantic waterski?

Yeah, my friend had a waterski so I drilled holes in it and made it into a longboard. It works pretty well, you can't really pop with it because of the fin deal, but that's not really a problem. The main problem is walking around with the thing cause it's so massive.

And Donald you have 2 vanguards... im damn jealous hahaha even tough the dervish is my dream board the vanguard looks really good too.

I just started longboarding, once my knee's better i plan on learning some dancing moves and get an overall better board control cant afford another fracture.

You should definitely swap the crails and put them on the S9 Bomb Hills.

One of the vanguards is modified now. I cut it into an LDP shape.
