The way skaters talk about injuries. "I did x and now whenever I y it feels like z." Skaters just willing to have their bodies never be the same again lmao.
Just getting back to skating after a 10 yr hiatus I met Vincent at a Elwood demo as a kid got an autograph its nice to see homie still ripping. Respect
I do that with bushings. Used to have kingpin bolts fly off all the time skating, but now I skate indy highs loosely goosey but buy the indy low truck soft bushings. Bottom brushing is the same, top one is lower. Problem solved 👍🏼👍🏼
5.5(5.0, 5.25...) is the hanger measurement in inches, not axle length. Venture and Royal size the trucks as such. Indy and Thunder use hanger width in mm.
Krux is the only company that makes it easy to understand what size trucks you want. That being said, just look up a size chart, every company has a chart with their trucks sizes and what boards it fits.
I felt like doh dohs were low profile bushings. like when i used them to replace thunders and ventures, the top bushing of doh dohs were too small and you had to tighten it more.
I forget who it was now but someone on the 9club possibly Neen Williams was saying theyve stocked up on low bushing... I expected it to get brought up during the bushing talk. Who ever it was, was saying they ride the regular trucks with low bushings so there looser... I believe it was a Indy rider and they said one day well touring the factory or visiting the NHS warehouse they found a bin full of unused low bushing and took home a stockpile of them.
Yep, back wheel toe side gets smallest first from powerslides, take em off and switch ends and sides, set of wheels lasts way longer. If I didn't suck and got free stuff I wouldn't have that problem 😂
If you want them to last long time then i think you should keep the shields on. I remember also about this topic they spoke about in one of other nineclub programs where rage mention about keeping shields on. Even tho some skaters like how sound is when shields is off.
Dude... I was just asking my buddy about this... I've never heard of this argument until recently and I really don't understand what difference it makes.
It hurts my soul hearing pros being completely unaware of their set up, how is it even possible to not know what truck size you ride ?😂 anyways he is a damn good skater! You the best Vincent !
Y’all need to step your math game up. To convert 1 and 7/8 inches to millimeters do on your calculator 7 divided by 8 equals 0.875 and then add the whole 1 to it gives you 1.875 inches in decimal and then go over to google to get inch to millimeter equals 25.4 millimeters per inch, now just do 25.4 times 1.875 to get you 47.625 millimeters. Your welcome
I blow out bushings all the time and they absolutely make your trucks feel like boo boo. Bones medium bushings are a game changer.
Orange Indys 4 life . game jam
Bones bushings blow out super fast. Stock Indy last a lot longer and only take like a week to break in.
Vince is so unique. Awesome Dude

The US is a weird place. A tape measure without metric measurements included. Painful
Vincent always been a mad rippa! Hell yeah

Tensor is also inches
It's always the width of the hanger, you're right 👍😊
Thunder 157mm all day!
2 weeks is a longtime for pros and ams
Totally right bro... They musta put that design in after seeing a shredded wheel so cool to think that lol
“Roger would know! Roger!”
*crickets* This broke my god damn heart.

For real... Also, these dudes been skating collectively for like 4 decades, why is this a struggle? lol.

Dude, I used to rub my truck bushings on my grip tape to get them smaller, it works.
Thread sealant is good for keeping nuts tight on loose trucks etc
Trucks are the redesigned Royal, so they are 144 for 8,25 board.
So they use the indy size term.
Wouldn't the 5.5 be inches and it's the width of the hanger not including the axle?
Chris, I had good high pop too....till I hit my 40's! 😂😂😂😊
Bro I really need to get new wheels, my wheels are like a rough 52 now and they get caught up on pebbles, I miss 54s
Multiply millimeters by .0397 to get inches via thousandths.
I skate my bearings till the shields pop off to. Damn that’s sick One love skateboarding
Saw this dude at demo in San Jose. His board was so fucked up and sounded soggy. Crazy
10:34 shorty's doh doh's
Alvarez, PRO SKATER, being like: I don't know the size, I don't really care... Boys and Girls, that RIGHT THERE is PUNK ROCK!
Hella Hesh huh

Two top bushings
I have a question do you have to rotate your wheels so they could get messed up on both sides
Swap them to opposite corners. Fronts to the back and vice versa when they're getting coned 👍
.....but don't turn the wheel around. Take it off and move it to the opposite corners as it is in your hand. This way they'll even out again 😊

7/8 is 0.83--you are correct, Kelly.
5.5 is the size hanger in inches
Jordan Trahan is who is talking about
9club needs tiago!
My cousin slices his bushings in half so he can keep them ultra loose
Venture 5.6 are the 8.25 trucks which is so confusing because 5.5 royals are 8.5
Wow , the math ! Proving not all gifts are provided to professional skateboarders,,,/&: I’m dumb as f@ck ✌🏻
Rethreading stresses me out for sure
ask durometer
Hes sponsored..he can have a new deck every week lol...😂😂
At first i was stoked for a 20 minute video, but if you remove the time they spent doing math its more like 5 minutes.
The struggle was real.
Why the fuck do we not use metric system in usa ?
Dear 9 club members....Bearing shields off or on??
If you want them to last long time then i think you should keep the shields on. I remember also about this topic they spoke about in one of other nineclub programs where rage mention about keeping shields on. Even tho some skaters like how sound is when shields is off.
Dude... I was just asking my buddy about this... I've never heard of this argument until recently and I really don't understand what difference it makes.
@@queenhenryviii Shields off = dirt allowed in. Bearings performance = worse.
1.875

Or easier.....have a tape measure with mm on it and read the measurement 😄😊
