@@Skatebetter what's your ideal board like for thunder trucks? Narrow wheelbase some fingers and a steep kick? Also have you tried Indy mid? They are super heavy. They have a hollow right now. Titanium would be perfect. I haven't skated in over a decade. I used to ride venture Lowe's and my decks were always soggy depending on what I had after wearing him in a little bit. But I want to try thunders. I just don't want to have a soggy pop if I get the wrong deck. I think my problem was low trucks to begin with The Thunder's sit at a nice mid spot, with those ventures, I always enjoyed the high ones. When I would ride my friend's boards They always pop and turn better and ground. Better less hang ups but with the ventures I think you can go for a deck with Les Pop and still be okay. I never realized ventures went that far out. I thought they went in because they have a lot of base plate to slide on, I was thinking a longer wheel base works with the ventures better and a shorter with the thunders. I don't know. I'd love to hear your thoughts and where you're at. Thanks bro

@@svnbit8408 That’s a great question- it’s def a struggle to an extent and there is def always a piece that will be preference based i think. For me what works on Thunders is a mellow concave, steep kick, less fingers of flat, and a wheelbase of no more than 14.25 or 14.5. I also notice i do better with decks shorter than 32. Basically offsetting the width of the trucks with a shorter feeling setup and the height of the truck with a steeper kick really helps me. I haven’t tried Indy mids but would def be curious. Also I ride the Thunder Hollows and I def prefer them over a heavier truck (personally) especially if the deck has a steep kick it just helps me get it off the ground higher. If the pop feels soggy it could be the setup but it could also be the wood- i find for whatever reason decks “made in Mexico” (Zero, April, etc) feel the snappiest for me. Polar and Deathwish felt the soggiest. Hope that helps! Let me know if you have anymore questions g. Best of luck

@@Skatebetter thanks for the input! I used to ride deluxe wood a lot, but I never paid too much attention to what worked and what didn't I back then I remember girl chocolate decks lasting a day and just being mush out of the gate, like standing on them in the shop was a guantlet to find one back then the way decks were so flat anyway. Last few years was habitat alien and city. I think I'm gonna go for some sort of gimmick deck like vx they seem to be mostly suited for Indys though with the possible exception of astas stuff. Or the impact stuff just to try isolate the pop variable lol. Titanium lights and some light snappy deck could be fun, I do like that fast easy flick though from a wider stance by the bolts. Im excited to get back into it I think the single press stuff is a lot more reliable these days I'd like to assume lol. Did you say softer bushings for thunders? You wanna remove some of the twitchiness but have the stiffness ramp up quick to avoid bite? That's definitely what I am looking for when I get a pair, want a good pinch, and be able to ride out of tricks but definitely not bite everything. I think the 8.25, 8.5 and 148 trucks will help too, a short wider deck with a short wheelbase sounds killer, with flat and steep kick, yeah that's the ticket.
@svnbit84082 жыл бұрын
Have you looked at pros decks that ride thunders and do they follow a reliable metric? I'm curious, sometimes they don't even ride their own stuff anyways it's all custom or they have a wide range of consumer sizes that may have no rhyme or reason but to fit the general base dimensions. Definitely starting where you've put me though, thanks again.

I find that with the added WB length 101a have been more "FUN" to skate when paired with ventures esp in the "park" vs indys with 99a spitfire classic blend per ex. You hit the limit of lean/turn with the 6.1s and bones hards vs 159 indys with 94a bottom/92a top conical bushing....and you initiate slide/slasher powerslide a lot more differently between both wheel/truck as far as conical full shape. Indy you get more truck angle/lean limit vs the plastic bones hard inner on the venture...but the wider wb/stance=more slide/control/initiation esp with 101a wheels Swapped them out from stock bushing 6.1s to indys the 101a. And 99a conical full shape wheel 53mm on venture 6.1 with hards...just slide a lot more and are easier to control when sliding than indys with 99a conical SFW wheels. Havent tried 101a wheels with the indys yet but theyre also bigger 56mm. Still gotta say 6.1 ventures are pretty fun to skate I used to just run 159 hangers on my 8.38x32 decks and 8.8-9.25 shapes...bc i bought mulitple liquidated stage X/10.5 indys as they were bringing in the stage XI. I never really liked how thunders turned other than their metal to metal grind/speed. But once i saw venture finally making 6.1s as i was already on the fence waiting for a 8.75" ace AF1 this last 2 years...i got to try some ventures out. Whats not to like you have that Added pinch to fs/bs crooks on any shaped setup...over indys. Softer metal so you can slappy/groove them out of the box quicker generally making them better for quiver setups other than the extra hole indy baseplates. Have pretty decent stock bushings had to buy hards bc i couldnt last a session with the stock 6.1 kader bushings w.o wheel biting my arm off on hip transfers. But the 56mm wheels with stock bushings= no bite or risers XD. As far as that goes my only pro/con vs indys 159/6.1 same wheels 54mm 99a SFW i got massive bite with stock venture bushings vs the indys bc the indys had harder bushings....added bones hards still had bite landing nose heavy on transfers...adds risers...problem solved...yet are higher than the stage 9/x indy 159 which is 53mm vs 53.5 with ventures. That kind of threw me off...already having a different WB now risers/timing for tricks. Overall the risers helped more for tail/nose slide lock ins. Its why im now swapping the 56mm 101a onto the indys to see if that overall ride height difference can kinda come into play and make the indys as slidey/slashy as the ventures feel. FUN them up a little bit....otherwise ill have to try mid/hollow's to see if i can lighten the indy standards to get the same pop/response mid carve/bank wall/qp wall that the ventures have opened up the table with. IDK you can slash or pop over lip and land back in coping etc..just with a lot more control and speed kept intact than indys. If youre just trying to blast around and flow the park and hit a couple specific tricks....idk ventures have really caught my attention esp with how they feel on regular boards and shaped decks. It could really be a weight issue thing vs indy standards. If you want to do some street/tricks with a shaped board ventures really bring that setup some life NGL. Try some 6.1s on a 8.8 shaped pool/slappy deck and it definitely made my setup more fun to skate than when it had the indys. A lot more pop shoves/shove its/nollie half cabs etc...bigspins etc..for me at least just bc of a truck swap. And like a net 100% gain on half cabs IDK if any half-cab flip variation FEELS better on any other truck either. They even lock into grinds for flip outs etc pop setup pretty well compared to other trucks. Just that added crook/nose grind lock in vs having to break in/down an indy mid hanger....really has ventures sitting pretty as a GO to shaped board truck. Im really considering a 6.1 hollow for a 9.25 setup just bc of the weight reduction vs how heavy indy mids are or the 10-15$ extra the indy mid pro hollows are. The way thunders lock into slides...you immediately know youll want 101a wheels...or some kind of Anti flatspot blend or wax...bc your wheels will stick....on the same ledges indys would lock into or ventures. It completely changes the flip out etc aspects of foot placement/board size. Which is a similar limiting aspect to wheel size/truck height etc when trying to find a more ideal all around truck/wheel etc setup. Thunder titanium lights definitely feel like your board doesnt exist when doing gaps or hip transfers in transition.....they definitely have their place in the streets/tech. Its like using a park noodle snowboard to blast big air....or a big hip transfer....with a shaved off edge....vs a good edge/camber snowboard.....both have their place and with them the speed/quality of ride per trick. Skateboards are just that in the same...light trucks/small wheels are hard to use to blast in transition/flow sections for keeping speed high and trying to skate a certain portion/park feature that requires a speed/transfer setup. Yet if youre talking a 3 ledge combo with some fliptricks in between in a line or getting line footage.....the lighter/lower street setup becomes the near 10x easier setup for that task. Pros get boxes/ride different sizes/shapes some just for kickflipping gaps etc...if youre GROWN and work enough to invest into youre skating...a quiver doesnt hurt to build riding different shapes/sizes concaves while keeping a "MAIN" setup that you know you like doesnt hurt. IMO its better than only riding a single setup and switching up all the time. I always wanted to try ACES...only until recently did they make my size...but got to try and now have a new respect for venture just bc i wanted to go the "MADE IN USA" route and follow skaters like worrest and manderson into venture if they could skate non indys i figured i had no excuse but to try venture. I only really skate mandersons wheel/shape so why not run his trucks too. IDK across the board doing a high fs nose slide or fs crook only feels SOO Good on so many trucks. So i just let the skate test decide. As it stand i believe the venture 6.1 is probably the best in slot CROOK feel on any 8.8-9.25 shaped setup. To half cab pop ratio...I honestly recommend anyone not miss the chance to try 6.1s with a shaped board setup hybrid street board with 54-56mm wheels. I didnt need risers with 56mm wheels on a shaped board and that was a hoot in itself riding into curbs. Something about a riserless setup on a shaped board really up the foolishness of the max youre trying to do with a would be limiting setup. The general/overall fun trying to skate the shit out of it becomes.

really considering the 6.1 hollows as my MAINSTAY shaped board truck for 8.8-9.25" boards. After swapping 6.1s from 159 indy standards the pop on command mid bank wall/qp or for gaps with seemingly no effort just really has them locked in as that "SHAPED BOARD" setup thats "BUILT" for slappys and transition...that really becomes the MAIN setup....or the board for ALL terrain/street too...over the main "QUIVER" shape/truck setup... I started doing a lot more 180/shove it half cabs in lines at the park just bc of how much better those trucks felt to do how natrual and just overall better they were with ventures. Big spins etc. Even shove outs etc from slides. They also slappy much easier than the 159 indys....maybe bc of harder bushings with the indys vs the stock ventures. Either way im just glad to be skating something other than 159 standards for the last 8+ years. Might try ace60 AF1, or indy mid 159 hollows before i give the 6.1 hollows a try...but it sure makes riding that de-lammed shaped deck a hoot and got it off the shelf. The 6.1s have me ready to buy another shaped board to have one with fresh pop in the quiver. The trucks are that good....watching indy riders jump ship helped me get a couple pairs of ventures over the years...ppl like kader, worrest, manderson. Even yutos part was a great Venture ad. The only other trucks i was willing to try other than indy 159s were aces and for a long period of time i never saw a 8.75" axle in the mix for the AF1 so i finally jumped on the ventures the sec they were HOT out with the 6.1....and around a year later got the second set..At first the WB geometry change was a learning curve for tricks....but once i got used to them and swapped out the indys on the shaped board kept the bushings stock vs the first go with the 6.1s...wow they are pretty GOOD on a shaped board for mainly normal stance riding and your usual 180/big spin variations. Good stock bushings good all around trucks. Great grind lock in....and crook pinch out of the box for a shaped board with big/contact patch wheels like some conical full shapes or radial 57mm+ wheels. You really cant ask for more from a truck out of the box slapped onto a shaped board or something with a chopped nose.
