Zenit should pay you commission. I purchased AZ after watching your videos with it several times. Very convincing videos! As total beginner I have no idea which bushings to use on trucks I have for it. Randal R-II 160mm 35 Downhill for rear and front Randal RII 150mm. I'm 125 kg.
@@ldptaiwan Thank you, main thing I know now for sure it is weight related. I guess, I have to check the shape, size of existing bushings and order good 85A and 95A ones.
Excellent review! Very comprehensive, I wish all reviews were of this quality. Also you have fantastic English - grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation! I am used to pumping on a Loaded Icarus (flexi deck with 50 degree RKP front and rear). It takes a few pushes to get going but I can easily maintain 10-15mph on flat ground but barely move on slight uphill. Is pumping on a split angle setup like the Zenit AZ very different?
Excellent video. The Paris V3 is already a tall truck so why add the additional risers? Instead of flat risers under the Randall 35deg, have you considered an angled riser to de-wedge the truck even further?
Hello I Speak Spanish so the auto translate subtitle are not good. Can you say me if this is the correct setup: Front Paris V3 150mm 50 degree , Back (Unknow), Wheels (?) Bushing Front (78a) Bushing back ( 98). I'm new in this big world of longboard LDP and I have no extra money for buy bunch of trucks and boards, so I'm looking just some like this $400 - $450 USD to pay. Thanks for your video
Yo I appriciate your review on the az. But right now I am torn between the az an supersonic mostly because the tail on the az. My question for you is how usefull the tail is? Have you ever use it for like up and down side walk? Thanks!
i think the kick tail is only good for fetching the deck. Your normal foot placement won’t be on the tail so it won’t help during your ride. Personally I will choose Supersonic now days, if you’re not against something made in China
For pure pumping, yes, the closer you stand the better. But for a pump/push hybrid setup you also need a low platform to get pushing (and foot brake) easier.
Did you end up preferring Paris in the front over Bennett? I looked into Bennett but the additional DIY work out cost didn't seem as appealing as a beginner.
What’s your recommended trucks with this Zenit deck if I want to do long distance cruising and pumping ? Paris V3 165mm 50deg or Caliber III 158mm 50deg? What is the maximum diameter of wheel can be used with this deck with no wheel-bite?
The company (Zenit) sells complete AZ decks with Paris V3 165 mm and their 90 mm wheels. I suppose there's no wheel bites with these gears. For the moment, I ride this board with BEAR Bangerz surfskate truck (RKP front) and BEAR Polar Bear (TKP rear), both 155mm, with the same 90 mm wheels from Zenit. I had to put flat risers (about 1/2" to 3/4"; about 1,3 cm to 1,9 cm) to avoid wheel bites. This configuration is very good but clearly not optimal, so I'm looking for a new front truck.
Thank you for making this EXCELLENT video in English!

I have a genesis w/ cybins, but I've also got paris/prandal trucks set up and ready for a board. Watching your videos makes me want this deck so much!
Excellent concise review to help me decide on my first LDP board!
Great review... Very Knowledgeable... Visually I just dont like the tail, from the rear it looks like a platypus bill!
Good review
Awesome & Thanks Sir :)

如果是想用dont trip 光用poppy套裝就好了嗎?
我是用 rocket 的rambler
Hi, does a bennett 5.0 (front) and a paris street 129mm (rear) works without wheelbite?
For me that is interessting too.
With the Speedvent 85 it looks very thighs. Do you think 100mm wheels would work? Thanks

@@ldptaiwan great thanks for replying!
But aren't you supposed to stand on the trucks for better pumping on carver trucks?
For pure pumping, yes, the closer you stand the better. But for a pump/push hybrid setup you also need a low platform to get pushing (and foot brake) easier.

@@ldptaiwan thanks! That was helpful, now I need to find Randal for rear which is also not that easy!
Hi! I'm also interrested at the reply, but for some reasons I can't see it... Can you please inform me? Thanks!
與 Panteon Trip 比較,哪個更適合初學者及長程推行?
@@ldptaiwan 期待,謝謝,也想知道 Trip 是否也能 pump ~

You may also consider pantheon supersonic. It should be better than AZ out from the box
I’m having shell bite with 150’s and will prolly still have it with 165mm so I ordered the 180mm to have no problems. I don’t get his recommendations
bhanger front: 11 or 25?
Can this longboard work with surfskate truck like Carver CX or Waterborne adapter?
you should get flat nose/tail deck if you'd like to use surf adapter/surf trucks.

Has fiberglass sheet on bottom?
yes!
