| I picked up an Acme 8.875 x 38" deck, and some kryptonics 66mm 75a wheels. Gonna use one of my sets of indy 169's on it. Any advice for riser thickness? Should I just use some 1/2 inchers? wedges? |

| Use some wedge risers. I find it gives the board a more surf feel, And the trucks move better on the turn. |

| Haven't had time to go pick it up yet, It formerly belonged to the guy who owns the shop i ride for, and it's at his parents house right now. I'll likely pic it up this coming week and then post pics for ya. |

| It's still a bit damp out, we got a little drizzle of rain a little while ago, otherwise i'd be out looking for hills. |

| Just got back from my first ride on it. Hot damn this thing rides like a dream. I made sure I hit all the hills on the way to the liquor store to get a 2liter, but skated flat the way back. Fun as all hell, I love it! |
