It may not do all things well, but it makes for a really fun cruiser.
Liked just for the kickflip alone
Can one and done this board - using the kick-tail for sharp turns and getting the standard flip tricks and LD dance moves just needs the specialization.
If you ride a bunch of boards it basically just becomes a boardwalk cruizer.
Bro i jus love to watch ya skate and hear ya thoughts was stoked to see a new post
Always love your videos man! I currently experiment with various surfskate setups and I am looking for a flexy board but maybe not as flexy as the flexiest Loaded Icarus/Tan Tien. A top mount deck probably also feels better than putting the surfskate trucks underneath those mentioned drop through decks (tried it with the Tan Tien, it felt a tad bit too narrow...). I may want to pair deck this with some Carver CX or Carver C5 trucks. Let's see.
Great video. Just got the 130mm version. Maybe should have watched this first, but the board will suit my needs, and I like how it looks.
Really good reviews!
Your reviews are the best! I had my eye on this board for a bit but I ended up more interested in other ones.
Thank you! Which board did you go for instead?
@@LongboardingExplained I went with the Landyachtz Stratus for learning and eventually dancing, and I’m considering the Drop Hammer for when that’s too much (and your review for that one was really helpful!).
@@LaurenFairwx Let me know how it goes with the dancing. I have a dance board but I've barely stepped on it haha
Waited 3 months for a video that’s not even 3 minutes long, but it’s good 👍🏽.
The Ripper’s a great board🛹 for us beginners. Nice wide 9,” barely any concave, a little W, a very comfortable 25” wheelbase, a full 37” long top mounted deck you can get nice and wide with your stance on, soft fat 63mm wheels 🛞, and a kicktail if you want or need to use it.
I bought a 8” popsicle deck recently to try out in the hopes of doing transition and all that other regular skateboarding 🛹 stuff. I need to get used to the much smaller board and wheelbase. I’ll go check your written review out. ✌🏽☮️
Yeah I know, but it is worth it. Wouldn't have been fair to make it any longer than 3minutes really. The written review as always is super in-depth and has more content so do check it out.
Hope the latest video was good to watch. It was built off of this one
ayyyy 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Would it take bigger 70mm wheels without needing riser pads ?
I like this chill review format , keep it going !
I think it already has huge risers from factory though. Or did you mean additional risers?
It comes with 1/2” risers. If you put 70mm wheels you would need either hard or really hard bushings or you would have to tighten the stock bushings and make them really stiff.
I ride my front bushing relatively loose and my rear a little tighter. If you want a loose ride and your not too heavy I would stick with the 63mm Fatty Hawgs.
Putting 70mm wheels would probably end with wheel bite. Unless you’re tall and don’t mind putting 1” risers or stacking two 1/2”risers. I’m short so 63mm wheels and 1/2” risers make the board plenty high for me.
It could but wheelbite would be more likely. A small chance of bite isn't too bad tho so i'd say for got it
I have 70mm wheels on it most of the time and I've never had wheelbite with the default risers, I've never ridden it without the default risers I think and I have the trucks moderately loose
@@maxjarvela4255 Did you put those wheels 🛞 on the stock trucks?
Seeing this deck, it makes me wanna Fitter the front truck and put some 40-degree 130mm Gen 6's on there. Probably need new wheelwells in the front, due to the Fitter-ing though.
The wheelbase would come down to 22.4" if you Fitter using the old-school mounting pattern. Tbh, 22.4" seems like a fun wheelbase.
The deck would be stiffer too, due to Fitter-ing.
You're gonna love the next video that follows
@@LongboardingExplained Can't wait, bro!
Lol, haven't heard the term to "fitter" a board in a long time. Glad there's still people that remember this. I don't wanna sound like a grammar nazi for a slang term but I feel like fiterring only applies to drop thrus, as in you're not only redrilling but also top mounting it.
@@Starkiller935 Yeah, maybe, but it's a nice one-word-explain-all term. Too lazy to say "shorten the wheelbase by using the old inner holes as new outer holes and drilling 2 new holes as new inner holes".
How fast were you going with the tkps? The video angle makes it look like you're going super fast.
Same question
Not that fast honestly. Like 15mph max
🤙🏼👌🏼👌🏼🤙🏼
It looks like a comet cruiser though. eh
