"Spaghetti english" Better words have never been spoken.

Well done. I very much appreciate that you did it in English as well

I really like this video. It’s so underrated. I like the picture quality, colors and even music you chose.

Thank you for this; best overview of this surf adapter that I’ve found.

Thanks from Germany, great overview! Answered all of my questions about tkp, rkp and the rail adapter. Best you did in english. Stay save and protect your country!

Not sure why it took so long for the youtube algorithm to suggest this video, but cheers man! this is one of the most indepth reviews of the waterborne surf adapter i've seen! great job, and your English is great! also, I don't mind reading subtitles, that's how the world goes round man. reading is fundamental! I'm one of the early kickstarter backers, and I got the heavy bamboo 32inch complete and still struggling to learn how to pump correctly. Seeing how you do it effortlessly on so many different boards gives me lots of hope! Keep up the good work dude, greets from Amsterdam ;-)

I've watched other Waterborne videos trying to explain the technology and keep coming back to this one again & again. Your 'spaghetti English' is delightful and fine! Then again, I watch foreign language films all the time with subtitles. Your technical understanding and demonstration of skating and Waterborne enriches my understanding. So I keep watching it and picking up new bits of understanding every time I watch this video. My main use is for exercise and "flat" pumping. I'm not a skate bowl or pump track user. Just cruising and rising on roads or smooth areas. I use a 22" Penny board which for many is considered unstable. But if one can ride a 22" Penny board, one can cruise almost anything. :)

9 month ago your video gave the finale impulse to decide for the Waterborne system and I don't regret anything about it: I had never tried a surfskate before but figured it out within minutes - I think I had an "unfair" advantage though because many years ago before I picked up skateboarding I had one of these 90's snakeboards/"streetboards" and riding a surfskate feels pretty much like riding something in between a snakeboard and a skateboard. However - the Waterborne system gave me many hours of joy, and sometimes I go out late at night to skate a short 50 metre stretch of asphalt around the corner for half an hour and end up returning 3 hours later. To roll up and down this stretch of road over and over again with a regular cruiser would be of little fun, but thanks to snaps and slide variations this flat road is as entertaining to me as a skatepark. Initially I skated my 30" cruiser + Waterborne with Randal style 160mm RKP trucks, but a few month ago a dude on the street had gifted me an early 1980's Alva "Bill Danford Mini" for some reason and its Variflex 180mm SKP trucks boosted the board even more - can't wait for the season to begin. All this is owed to your video only - thank you so much! 🖤

Amazing! Thank you for taking so much time and care in explaining waterborne adapter for longboards

Thanks for these great explanations and your huge effort!! The best vid summerizing all the technical aspects of the stuff that was important to me. Greetings from Vienna!

Thank you very much for the effort you put into this overview in English. :) Very nice!

I just ordered this and just found your channel. Awesome video Sir. Real high quality and great explanation and edit.

Gracie, Skate Therapy! Such a good video about the Waterborne surf and deck adapters! Excellent information! And, GRACIE for your English version - much appreciated! Ciao!

'Spagetthi English' 🤣 Very funny

I appreciate the quality of your videos. Top notch.

that was awesome, thank you for taking the time to make this video! Cheers

Grazie mille, especially for redoing all your hard work over again in English for us plebs who can't speak Italian. The best review of the Waterborne that I have seen and very helpful for me as I have just bought the adapter set.

I'm using my waterborne setup on a 9x34 "Cruiser'. Traditional trucks, 65mm wheels. I have the rear rail as well. Not got the technique of riddin it all down just yet but havin a lot of fun with it.

Great review, very good perspectives and thank you for pointing out how unique their rail adapter is. I’m in California, first time I see your channel!

Excellent advice on all the options, going to make a custom waterborne longboard and do some experimenting on the way. Cheers

Awesome video I loved the illustrations you did!

Thanks for your great report! Very good info here!

Such a great explanation. Nice work!

Brilliant Video just what I was looking for, ordered Paris V1 trucks and waterbourne adapter front and rear, really looking forward to get out skating again

Very comprehensive. Great video.

This was super helpful mate! Thanks for your hard work

Great vid. Been skating since 1978, longboarding since 2007. Had been using Paris and Gullwing on my longs, then got a Koastal Orca with Revenge trucks, and the difference and comfort was so amazing that I just cannot deal with traditional trucks anymore. Just discovered surf skate, been looking at tons of stuff, and feel these waterborne adaptors would be my choice so I can get to use my Arbor pintail again :) This vid gave me all the answers I needed, grazie mille!

I ordered a waterborne adaptor a couple weeks ago. I can't wait for it to get here. It will be going on my 38" earthwing deck with 10" gullwing sidewinders and otang stimulus wheels. It's really been a bummer not being able to surf. I figure this will be the next best thing. Love the video.

Thanks for this vid in English. I just ordered the Waterborne adaptor to use on a 10x30 deck with Bones Mini cubic wheels. I might also get the rear rail if I think I need it.

Thanks for this incredibly informative video! I decided to switch my Beercan Bords Brewster 30" cruiser (a deck made of recycled aluminium with a completly seamless flexible wheelbase) on reverse kingpins to a surfskate - my waterborne adapter set will arrive tomorrow and you even increased my enthusiasm. Now I consider getting a second set for my 1970 MPI fiberglass/wood sandwich board on regular trucks.. 😅

very good. helpful in deciding if i should try some carving trucks.

Just ordered mine can't wait to use it!

Thank you for the video in English! I bought the Scorpio 🤘 Let’s shred it up my bro 🤙

I just bought this! Thanks for your review!

Thank you so much, great video. Answered many questions I had.

Hey! I live in Israel, just got the waterborn adaptor and put it on my Dechatlon cruiser, feels great, but I defenatly need to get in shape, pumping can be hard. I found youre video very usefull, ypu explained all the adventeges of the adaptor really nice. Thank you!

I actually watched one of your subtitled videos lol. You are awesome. It's nice to understand how the boards work. I'd love to see an explanation for how to make a two wheeled board like grilled or t-board

Thanks for the video, I’ve just bought a waterbourne front adapter and will try it on a pool shape cruiser board this weekend.

Great review: combination of technical substance and stoke! You covered all of the aspects - board, truck and combinations - really well. And it is entertaining! I just got the adapter, should be getting the deck in a few days. I'm thinking a wider deck might be better to lock in for the turns and lean, about 9.5"/242 mm wide, gentle radial concave and a 22.5"/572 mm wheelbase - a little more stable, but hopefully short enough to turn with good carving response and still allow using the kicktail (no flex, unfortunately). TKP front (Bennett, very divey and surfy already) - will try RKP and TKP in the rear and see which works better. Trying to decide between 5.0/129mm hanger width or 6.0/150 mm hanger width on the trucks. Trying to emulate a mid-length single fin egg kind of feel. Thanks for the inspiration! Grazie mille!

Really great video!!!! thank -you. I'm going to buy a pair of these adapters

Great review! Thank you!

Bella li'! This is a very accurate and useful review. Well done

Again and again you come up with these most informative videos. I very much appreciate what you are doing. The only problem would be how to manage the shipping to Turkey when I bought it.

Pizza, mandolino, MAMMA! You Lazy E-talians

I have the revenge alpha trucks, they are incredible, after many experiments, I end up using them in a dropthrough deck, the result is fantastic, I also have the Waterborne adapter and I love it, I am using it with a Bennet Vector truck, as a rear truck I am using a Tracker RTS with a dewedge

Hi, great video and review man! Keep filming. Just want to know, among the sutfskate brands, which one would you recommend for surf-training? Smoothstar, Surfskate Industry, Waterborne,YOW, Curf-board or Slide? Which of these is closest to surfing? Thanks :)

Great video! Thanks

Thanks for making a video in English! This was really helpful

Thank you for the information.

Signor, your English is wonderful. Thank you for the review.

I love the spaghetti English . I got a set an love riding it I just put it on my electic. Awesome

I’ve been using the Waterborne adapters for many years, though I set mine up very differently and I believe much better in performance in several ways. I had an epiphany about five years ago that because the front gets so much additional turning ability with the adapters, that the rear trucks no longer had to help with turning duties, and in fact could be reversed(flipped) to face the same as the front truck. This means the rears turn in the same direction as the front, but not as much. This resists any possible wobbles and instability at higher speeds and still retain the nimble handling as if it was normally setup. The rears will now turn into the corners, pushing under you giving support and maintain grip as they shoot for the exit rather than pushing outwards. During pumping and carving the rear makes a straighter path than the front, more like a real surf board. It’s the next level in handling for a surf-skate. Obviously this only works with the adapters or at least a surf style front truck; if the trucks are matched in turn ratio it would just crab sideways. Usually in skateboarding you have to choose maneuverability and carving at slower speeds or stability at high speeds. By reversing, or I should say UN-reversing the rear trucks gives you both if you use the adapters. Give it a try, it’s great to get feedback on this setup trick. Thanks!

Bonjourno and thank you for making this amazing video! Your explanation of the waterborne is excellent and helped me as a beginner to have a much better understanding of how it works, including the various trucks. I originally wanted to get a Carver board but due to the pandemic, they're really hard to find. Anyway, I ended up putting the adapter on a Atom Drop Through - 41 Inch - longboard. It's not really a cruiser and I tried it today and it wasn't very good at pumping. Is it me or do you think it's the wrong type of board? Appreciate any feedback from you maestro!

very informative video!

I like your English mate! well done!!

Hey, your background music's the same as Dead Meat's intro theme (1:33) :D subconciously expected to see some kills ^^

I was going to get a loaded icarus but now I've seen this I'm going to put a surf adapter on my tan tien and post back on here the results

Your spaghetti english is amazing, good sir.

Justo ayer recibí los trucks idénticos, pero no tengo claro cómo montar el eje trasero . Gracias por compartir experiencia…jajaja veo que no soy el único que tiene más de 6 longboards en casa…🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼 con 50 años sigo patinando por disfrutar y practicar para SUP o wave kite in strom en valencia mediterránea o Tarifa.. La Mar mi santuario personal…be water my friend..me encanta patinar por el pueblo ( aunque me miren con ojos 👀🤬…que se jodannn)

Eh, I will watch 5 episodes of Italian videos with subtitles ! *Sips on my ristretto "

Sir , Where can we find the replacement square bushings if it gets worn out over time for the waterborne surf adaptor ? . Nice video by the way :) also how would you feel if you want to compare it to the lower C5 truck from Carver ? . Thanks :)

great video!

Spaghetti English is awesome. Great video.

Your English is 👌. Americans love it. Accent of love!!!

Also my thanks for an English version

The best comprehensive review for this adapter. I have one question, in your experience, what effect does having a larger wheelbase, and even truck size, on the performance of the adapter when pumping? does it increase or decrease speed or acceleration?

Promo code still works, amazing!

Hello Brother, Thank you for your video, very informative as usual. Well to be honest, though I have the Swelltech Surfskate, you made me buy the Waterborne Adapter :) and thanks for that as well. While installing, the front reverse truck base did not sit properly in the WB adaptor, so i ended up reversing it so that the additional part of the base is reversed backwards. In other words, i reversed the front reverse truck. Is it ok to do that?

great informational video!! Use your hips to start the movement! HIPS! Aloha

Hi! I use surfskate for exploring cities when I travel. I love the Yow truck and I use it with a 29 inch deck for portabilty. What would you think is the Best set up for exploring and comuting? Is the water borne truck better than the Yow for long distance pumping?

Hi! Can I adjust the adapter? I have one with reverse kingpin trucks (from an old longboard) with a cruiser deck, and it seems to be quite unstable. Thank you!

Looks like a nice or the best surfskate adaptator ! ^^ Me i have the Curfboard, Smoothstar Filipe Toledo and Swelltech hybrid, my favorite surf feeling is the Smoothstar, so much fun !

Ola, I'm from Portugal, I want to know can I adapt the waterborne on the deck Decathlon Oxelo 540 Carve and the back rail?

Hi, do you think what is the best setup for a cruiser deck with waterborne adapter? Tq (reserve kingpin or traditional kingpin trucks)

i have an empty slalom deck - bahne blackhill. which combo of trucks and adapter would you recommend for it? i have a couple of reverse kingpin cruiser trucks and a waterborne already.

I wish Waterborne included the 2x14mm risers and 2" bolts and nuts with the full kit (adapter and backrail), so we could experiment with both options. I decided to put this o my son's 31" deck and the backrail makes it too unstable). Now I can't find the bolts and nuts in that size to just use the front surf scate adapter.

Have you tried the waterborne & rail adapter with a RKP in front & TKP in the rear?

Have you try combine waterborne adapter with surftruck like slide maybe? U should try it man!

Ciao. I also bought one. When I looked inside the waterborne I got a bit concerned about durability. Do you know if you can replace the inside bushing ?

Hello, I followed your advice and got a waterborne surf adapter. 😁 I just like to.ask, what do you think the best size of wheels and what is the best hardness of wheels for practicing surf maneuvers? Thanks

wow. I have the same oxelo bamboo pintail longboard. Do you think the default rails on that board would work fine? I saw you made your own riser instead of using the rails for the first board you tried on.

Sir , I understand from your video that Waterborne adaptor uses square bushings. Is there any possibility that it can take the regular barrel bushings like if we can cut it into square & put them in ? Thank you. :)

Danke schön! So this skatepark at minute 11 is in Barcelona?

Hey Molto bene spiegato. Grazie assai. mi `e piaciuto.-m-

which is good trucks size for Waterborne surf and rail adaptor on 33"-34" deck?

When I visited Lisa I wished I had my board with me.

i learned so much,, thank you

Can I use my CX Trucks with the Waterborne Adapter? Thank you

Personalmente penso di aver capito il 90% del video senza sottotitoli, infatti fortunatamente non diventi eminem quando parli in inglese e sopratutto non usi vocaboli improbabili, complimenti come sempre

What size board would you suggest the Waterborne Adaptor for? I have a small 28" cruiser with 5" TKP trucks, 65mm wheels, And a 36" Adjustable Wheelbase 25″ - 27.25″ With 7" RKP trucks 75mm wheels?

Im so jealous. Im a skiier and I want to pump my roller skates. I like your technical attitude toward this sport. Im wondering if the waterboard will work on skates. Bont makes a roller skate with a front and back truck.

Ciao, pfv, dove si può comprare oggi Waterborn (front+rear) adapter in Italia? Tks, ciao

That truck adapter is like putting rice on pizza

is the rear portion worth buying for 20 extra dollars?

love it

Yes!!!! more in english please and thank -you

no touch my spagetti

Grazie mile
