@open_ogen9 I am 59 kg and using stock risers. I don't get wheelbite during commuting. However, I tried a front wheelbite once in the skate park (which was supposed not to go..). My advice is to tighten the front truck a little bit and not to put too much weight at the front, especially turning during the transition from a downhill road to a flat road.

@sandrablum3950 I cut it for easy everyday carrying. The rear wheels can roll freely on the floor when I grab the nose of the deck and walk. After I cut the tail, I smear a thin layer of UHU glue on the cut edge and seal it with the duct tape. I finally cover the edge with the deck guard. After serval rain rides, the duct tape has been loosened😅. The layer of UHU glue is still intact👍🏻.

@@HarryLamHK Thank you for your detailed reply. I was interested because I plan to do the same with my Landyachtz Dodger. 😉

@@sietsewerk Yes, I used to step on the rear wheel to decelerate. It is to place the rear toe on the deck and press the rear heel on the rear wheel. Since both feet are still on the deck, it makes me feel stable. I used to apply this very convenient braking method. However, I found it wearing out the valuable wheels quite fast. It seems costly and unsustainable. I now use foot-brake with "Freebrake" brake sole. The durability and performance are excellent.

@@HarryLamHK Thank you so much! Interesting that you wouldn't recommend it.

一般碳鋼好易生鏽, 最好用不鏽鋼bearing, 入面用膏狀潤滑脂(不是油狀)~

You are right! I will try a different style next time😆

LMAO a newbie tellin an experienced rider how to ride 😂 Keep doin your thing Harry 🤙🏽🤙🏽👌🏽👌🏽

The larger the size of the wheels, the more performance of your long-distance ride. However, I will also consider equipment weight and deck height for daily commuting. I recommend 70~85mm. I am now using Plow King 72mm nearly every day. I use non-stainless steel bearing with grease instead of speed oil for low-price, durability, and waterproofing. I am not sure about its brand name.

@@dyb6916 I like Pranayama in general. It is a compact deck designed for long-distance pushing. The Ember is a deck with more fun but less suitable for daily commuting situations.

我用緊72mm Plow King, 取代原裝69mm輪。睇你踩咩路，我覺得72mm市區行人路代步係岩岩好，唔易wheel bite，top mount又唔會太高，每日代步拎出拎入又唔太重👍🏻👍🏻

I think the new Ember is too long. After my Ember was broken, I bought a Pranayama for long-distance skateboarding. I have been skating it for at least 4000km (I really recorded 3000km in 1 year by Excel daily for fun :D). Pranayama is really good for pushing. However, I only use it for holiday long-distance trips now. In this year, I mainly use the Comet cruiser for daily commuting. I love small size cruisers since I tried it. If Pantheon makes a new smaller drop pusher, I will consider buying one. 😎

@@HarryLamHK Cool, didnt think the prana could be replaced by the comet. Do you have enough space for your fancy Footwork on that board?

@@skate-horizons Yes, Comet Cruiser still has enough space for switching foots because of it top mount design. Since I take longboards in and out public transports, shops, and crowed streets everyday, small size deck really helps it.

Pranayama's tail is too short (no tail) 😅. Now I pick it up by taking up a ring (an accessory of washing machine pipework) attached to the front. photos.app.goo.gl/BrDqMoShRic6y6kx8

​@@HarryLamHK Clever 😁I might go for the Ember Eternal which seems to have a bit of a kicktail. On my commute I kick up the board up several times so it may be a good choice. Thanks for your advice bro 👊

Hawgs 72mm Plow King👍🏻

Yes, Iarger wheels provide lower rolling resistance in general. The drawbacks are wheel bite (for top mount deck), heavier weight, diffucult sliding (or called carving brake?), higher deck level. Currently, I use Comet Cruiser with 72mm Plow King for short distance commuting on work days. I always suggest using larger wheels for long trip/exercise👍🏻

My previous Insta360 One X was broken. Therefore, I wanted to try GoPro which has better video quality due to the larger sensor. To be honest, I think 360 camera is more suitable for self-filming.

Yes, after cutting the tail, the rear wheels can roll when I am walking and hauling the longboard. It is much more convenient for me to carry it daily in congested public transport, shops, restaurants..etc.

@@HarryLamHK Ohh makes sense! I just noticed you installed some kind of handle to the front, do you mind sharing where you got that from?

@thornygreenwood now I am using badminton grip for quiet, stable, and comfortable handling. photos.app.goo.gl/w6J2GKrABRuvw45CA

暫時沒有試過

120 cm in length. I did not use the max lens at that time.

如果代步用途，不著重花式的話，雙下沉大輪配置的Pranayama/Trip就好合適 初學者在安全環境下，可以直接開始練習，但要小心路面及交通，很多危險要注意，不詳述了 慢慢累積經驗後，甚至可學習push switch

明白^ ^ 練習時我會注意安全的… 謝謝🙏🏻

it is an electrical cable connector. I just found that its shape can let the Pranayama stand up by itself.

great! thanks. @@HarryLamHK

Indy-style 149mm truck (no brand actually) 92A bushing Nothing But Free 90mm wheel My weight is 60kg. I forgot the Bearing~

sbdwlongboards.com/products/pantheon-pranayama-31-get-80-off-for-setting-up-a-push-complete 如果Pranayama, 呢間香港既長板workshop有賣，可ig dm佢地問下~

sbdwlongboards.com/products/pantheon-pranayama-31-get-80-off-for-setting-up-a-push-complete 建議dm instagram.com/sbdwlongboards 問下存貨先~ 如果想傾longboard話題，可搵我 t.me/BS6920

For my weight of 60kg, I have tested that 72mm is the maximum limit of wheel size for no wheelbite problem. If larger wheels are installed, it will be heavier. I think 72mm is the balanced size for the purpose of my setup.

我唔玩trick, 主要用黎市區中短距離cruising/少量LDP，以下係岩我既feature： 超窄同輕身，應該輕過Elos, 日日帶返放工搭車都冇壓力； truck既角度前加後減，好岩carving, 可以carve住落暗斜當brake，用72mm碌，deep carve冇wheel bite(我60kg)； truck窄，但wheelbase長，所以都夠穩定； deck夠彈，吸到震； 轉向好靈活，適合踩行人路避障； Top mount板始終難push，如果踩中長距離，一定要push switch； 如果呢d特點岩你使用習慣，應該值得買~

Would you say you prefer the comet or prana?

南面起點個段，之前好似冧過山泥，依家仲整緊，有少少牙煙😅

Thank you for watching😁 In my opinion, It depends on the routes you skate it: Long distance: - Trip (heavy & stable) - Pranayama (lightweight & less stable) Short distance & nimble: - old Ember (if you can still get one🤣) I can share an informative analysis thread of the three decks with you: www.reddit.com/r/longboarding/comments/cp4jt2/pantheon_cruisers_comparison_pranayama_trip_ember/

@@HarryLamHK Of course and yay thanks for replying!! 😄I appreciate it so much. I've been researching so long to figure out a good board that's also pretty short for LDP, while the other board I'd own being a ridiculously long dancing board (just want both worlds 🤣). I do really wish I could get the ember as your rides with it looked so nice. I think I'm leaning toward Pranayama for TKP trucks for tighter turns, although the RKP trucks with the Trip could give a smooth snowboard feel on slopes which sounds sooo lovely. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your Pranayama in action!!

www.exwayboard.com/products/exway-universal-skate-handle I attached it in the first row of screw of the front truck.

My bear trucks are also 90A. I am 60kg, and it fits me. I think mongo push is difficult to turn stably. It is like steering using back wheels for cars. It is not very reliable for a long distance. Mongo push can only be the intermediate stance before transformation to fully push switch. Don't keep this pose for too many pushes. After the first mongo push, you may try shifting your front foot a little bit frontward within 2~3 pushes so that you can finally transform to the opposite stance. Only practice can enhance muscle memory. After a while, you can try initializing "push switch" by moving forward your non-dominat leg to the center of the deck instead of keeping it the rear of the deck to start the first push. 💪🏻💪🏻

@HarryLamHK so I start the first push in the middle of the board and then shuffling forward on the next few pushes until I arrive at the front? Or stay in the middle? Sorry, I don't understand fully.

@bowerplace Yes, you are right. In fact, it is "middle-front" instead of "middle". I am using two ways to push switch: 1. Slow/decelerating photos.app.goo.gl/aH22iK29US3dHd1s9 2. Cruising/high speed photos.app.goo.gl/6phG7LL8xGcWaDqc6

@HarryLamHK thanks man! I appreciate it a lot! It is so satisfying to listen to your board ;) it would make a good asmr video ;) it looks scary when you're standing at the front both feet next to each other. The pantheon seems more suited to that, but I will give it a go on my dc.
