    Hey, I rode in the early 90's, I know what it is to pretty much ride on your bearings!

    Ah, the good ol' days of bearing sleeves called wheels and no truck riser pads. I think I still have decks where they didn't break as much as they had trucks come up through them. ^^

    I still to this day prefer a wheel size above 56mm and usually ride two sets (1/4") worth of riser pads. I think I got it from that era.

    I usually just roll up in here in lurk mode to watch everyone's vids a couple times a week. I was actually a little surprised that you weren't a regular around here when I signed up, replicant.

    Heh, my current board is a Santa Cruz "Skateboarding is not a Crime" Deck which has 55mm Spitfire Manslaughters (Found them tucked away in my cars rear hatch ^^) and Indy Trucks with no riser pads. Not far away from what I rode in the 90's, but at least my pants aren't big enough for 3 people to wear them now. I'm currently trying to steal some decks from my bestfriend. He quit skating long ago, but going through his attic he found two mid-late 80's Hawk and McGill decks. They will be mine eventually as they would be sexy for some pool fun. The McGill is chewed on the tail a little, but the Hawk is seriously cherry.

    Heya Fin, I joined quite awhile back, but just stayed in lurker mode as well. I wasn't a member of any of the OG teams, so never gave much notice to myself. Being a huge fan of the game I knew that the GameFAQS Skate 1-3, EA, and SA/Goon Forums being virtually dead wouldn't sustain me. So, I knew it was time to become more vocal in the community of Fluckit. With Fluckit and LB we have familiar faces, people still pushing the games limits, and a solid network of people who still love the game. Maybe I can actually learn to film now. =)

    I have a Flip Rune Glifberg P2 deck, one regular little set of risers, Ace Trucks, and some Bones STF 54mm's as my newer set up and a wider Powell Mini Logo on Indy's with 2 sets of pads and some street style 60mm Sector 9 wheels. I'm trying to downsize the stuff and try and re learn some street, but man, it's odd getting used to a new setup at this age. My Indy's have been my go-to trucks for like 7 years, same pair!

    Throughout the 80's I used Tracker, Gullwing, Venture, Grind King, Z Roller, etc and I always went back to Indy's. Been using them as my main truck for 20+ years.
