Was thinking about getting one im 200 plus should i get a bamboo version? Had a zenit draft how does it compare

I got the carbon trip with the karma wheels. But I'm very curious how the pranayama would feel with some smaller wheels like the 86mm mcfly for my trails that are devoid of hills!

The backing has a measure and you don't line up to it, do inexact measurements (defeats the purpose of measuring) and discount them for narrative reasons alone, compare wheels of different sizes when there are more equivalent options. It makes it look like the wheels are worse than they are and you're misdirecting to some. Prob. most as the type to look at comparison / spec content that purchase a lot are likely to be pretty obsessive

Man there's nothing quite like the feeling of putting your own board together from parts that you chose yourself

For a beginner, do you recommend the trip or the prana?

Pranayama is a 3x better Trip methinks: Better turning to avoid people, vehicles, road rubble. Trucks useable on a street board. Can fit ANY wheel instead of big THIN wheels so not trapped into buying more expensive never on special wheels.

That extra rebound is really nice on a Bennet if you don’t want a spherical mod

Those brackets on a Zenit BB or BB+ is one of the set ups I have been holding out for

Hey I've been looking into buying a Pantheon board for longer distance commuting and your channel has been soooo helpful and I just want to thank you for answering so many of my questions about their boards. Do you think for the supersonic I should go with the Karmas or the Hokus using the option to add the 3/8 inch riser on the pantheon website? Will the added height affect pushing too much? Again I just want to thank you for making all these useful videos and responding to people's questions 😁

How's the lepsk8 tail on the bandito? Would you recommend it over a glass drop for the rear?

Hi Michael have you tried the Pranayama with dadbods?

hey how does the turning aspect compare since they use vastly different trucks? Also which one do you prefer more?

Hello, can i ask what trucks do you use for the pantheon trip? Can you buy the orange spacer thingy separately? Thanks

How do you like it so far? I recently got one and boy is it a ton of fun! would you make any changes to the setup if you could?

riding over those steel train/cable car tracks looks a bit sketchy/scary, no problem with the Hokus?

Very very nice vid! Perfect combo of side seeing of berlin and the different local shops! Next time an other city? Köln perhaps? Hokowheels and supersonic? Do you use a riser? How much inch? Keep up filming!

Very nice video! And also Berlins seems very nice + the airport track is 🤩🤩🤩

thats really impresive ride, after that im certant to visit berlin as before i was only thinking on longboard jorney

Nice video Michael!!! Very entertaining, also thanks for the code on just passing thru!

Amazing video Michael. What footstop is that being used to kick up on the back of the Supersonic? Also those longboard bolts look more stout than a lot I see. What are those? Thanks for sharing your journey!

*Nice video* 🤙🏽🤟🏽🤙🏽

GOG trucks ❤

not sure for what you plan to use the board, but if it is mainly for cruising I would (as always) strongly suggest getting a soft rubber wedge on front and rear truck with the sharp angle always facing forward. It just makes skateboard turn in a better and more intuitive way as well as increases the pumpability by ton in my experience. Just try your new complete both with and without something like 8° rubber wedges (i prefer soft rubber as this acts as a shockpad as well)

Nice video as someone who lives in the north of Brandenburg there are not too many nice ways for some ldp the max I can go on a bike street is 12km and I'm kinda sick of it. It would be realy nice to have a app just like Maps but only for some real Bike streets not those gravel streets i have enougth off them here

Nice :)

Great video, it would be cool to see you film another trip here in England.

What kind of mod did you do to the Bear truck in the front?

Berlin looks very amazing would love to visit it and vienna too 🤙

I think something else very important "goes under the board" (sorry i had to!) here :D What I mean is using Allen bolts over Phillips bolts because the latter tend to get carved out after several uses and if they are of suboptimal quality you quickly have a bolt that you can not remove from your board anymore. Lucky you if you can flex the nut off the other side, but just imagine the rest of the bolt is stuck in threaded head of your original YOW Meraki adapter... I know that usually this only happens if you screw the bolts too tight, but it can also happen with low quality bolts or if you use them repeatedly or to beginners or being careless for a second when using the electric drill. In my experience this only rarely happens with Allen bolts as the bit usually does not tend to slip out and scratch/carve the bolts surface on the occasion. Usually I try to use Allen bolts wherever possible and replace Phillips bolts by any chance. Unfortunately all the Quik Truks come with Phillips bolts currently which I really would like to avoid. I think I will give this as feedback to the inventor sooner or later :D

👍👍👍

Bro, could you make a video about mounting the rear truck backwards. Its suposed to be 0°? Negative degree? I have not found that info anywere

it may take a few weeks longer. howeever getting that ankle mobility dialed in a bit will help tremendously. You have to press the heel as much as the toes in the back foot to initiate the slide and without it. it looks awkward for you, and surely painful like you said.

Load the wheels with your weight rather than the hand on the ground, it will help not letting the board go away from you and cause you to bail. Read it somewhere and it really helped

How does the ride compare to the pranayama? In terms of comfort, maneuverability, push efficiency etc?

Good job! Keep practicing and have fun:)

That rear heel is too high. You want to pressure the edge of the deck with the side of your shoes outsole. You also want to do stretches that help internal rotation of the femur. If your knees are sore, you may want to work on standing with some gluteus minimus and IT (iliotibial) band engagement. Or watch Dr. Emily Splichals videos about find the tripod of the foot. This is for the rest of your life when not skating. The knee usually isn't sore from the skating itself, it's usually due to your being internally rotated throughout the day, and then when you skate it kinda pushes you over the edge. You may be different of course. We can talk about it in greater depth when we connect next.

my LDP board is low enough :? hmmm so its just a hype item

*I like the first method!* 🤟🏽🤙🏽🤟🏽 Simple, easy, not requirin extra tools 👌🏽 4th is cleeeean

Everyone: oh noo you chopped a Bhangra! You: and now watch me even drill some holes in it! 😂 Especially the 3:57 method 😂😂 But great explanation in the ending 😊

Hey again! This happened to me too, you rear knee hurts because you have the hips in a worng position which doesnt allow you rear leg to turn to the correct position, you have to be more turned towards the turn so the hips and shoulders and head are looking over the turn, that allows to turn your leg and backfoot naturally. Also you wont tear your shoes anymore :D Btw sliding in flat ground is the hardest thing to do

Hey! as you have a dropped board what you are attemting here very impossible. Dropped decks have long wheelbases which means you have to go a bit faster and its harder to initiate the slide, but more stable. So, find a mellow long hill and just try to carve with the glove down, and try to reduce the radius of the turn everytime. Forget about the board, move your body, shoulder and hips, exagerate the movement all you can and youll find the wheels breaking point. A key point to reduce the fear is to look further ahead, it really helps. If you have a shorter board, maybe its smart to try at slower speed and then go to the Pantheon. Top mounted boards are easier to initiate the slide. Experiment moving your front foot back and forth. Good luck, keep it up :D
