Took me some time and a bit of luck..
The Lindgren on the right is one of my all-time favorites.

Other Rob, to be honest at that time I had spares. Jacob and I did a trade and one truck was missing nuts. The Don Brown was missing all axle nuts and half of the hardware. A few other trucks that have come my way are either missing nuts or are totally wasted. I stole some nuts from a different set of trucks to set the Brown up but I need different wheels. Any of the Freestylers want to recommend a good wheel for this set up? The Blurrs are ceterset and 45mm wide, I think. They tuck under too much. Do I need to look for different trucks or is there a wheel that will work?


on all my freestyle decks now days, i go with a truck 1/4" wider than the deck. i flip the nuts inward (so the lock is on the inside) and then file down the axles flush with the nuts. this usually gets you matched up with the deck again. the new wheels always leave about 1/8" nut outside of the wheel, but this will eventually wear down to perfection.

Ok, you have ultralite Mid hangers on your deck.
I rode an almost similar setup back in the day with Powell Deano wheels which were wider than the Freestyle wheels; it was a roller skate wheel if I remember correctly.
OJII Freestyles with some washers should work as well.

Nice Hazze shape.
Kinda funny, but I met Hazze today at the Bright Tradeshow!
But I did not tell him about the replicas.
He works too much, so no skating for him, what a shame.

I just switched from my Crowbar replica to a Small School "Sarge" model. Longer wheelbase -- a little more flow for some of my tricks. Still using the same tracker fulls and sk8kings wheels.




Jeremy is working on a freestyle longboard for me right now -- here is his initial template. I decided to lengthen the tail to 7.5", but keep all else including the wheelbase the same. This board is very similar to the old Gravity Jeff Budro model, which I found to have too short a tail. Didn't have enough leverage to move it around properly. Inspired by really oldschool footage of Chris Chaput doing FS on a longboard.

From Left to Right:

1. Just arrived - Decomposed YOYO psychotic critter model - Gripped and soon to be set up.

2. Current Rider - Decomposed YOYO, Tracker Darts, and Powell Freestyle wheels.

3. Flatness - Decomposed Jo Humeres (painted) - Got this off a forum bro in trade. - Wanted to try a no concave no kicknose, more traditional FS deck - WOW, frustration central. I'll stick to the newish mild concave kicknose. This thing is good for a challenge though - Fun.

I was thinking about setting up a freestyle rig.
Looks fun.
Not this one though.
