Cruising, LDP, Pumping, Carving
CruisingLDPCommutingMixed#CommuterBuilt for getting places. Easy to push for miles, easy to carry up the stairs at the other end.#PlayfulLoose and responsive, happy to carve, pump and break traction. Trades top-end stability for fun.#PumpingKeeps rolling on flat ground without a push: rhythmic carving turns your weight into speed. Usually steep front trucks and a stiff deck.#Rough pavementSoaks up chewed-up asphalt, cracks and chip seal, usually thanks to bigger, softer wheels and a compliant deck.

Components
Trucks
ParisV2 150mm 50° Truck SetRaw/Raw
Front truck loose for juicer pump, back truck rides tight for more efficient pump and stability
Bushings
Ride both 80a front and back, I change between cone/barrel and barrel/barrel depending on what I need
Risers
Pig.5" risersBlack
Rider notes
Got this beautiful board as a replacement/upgrade from my stolen loaded chinchiller. I set it up with RKPs even though Pantheon recommend TKPs. It works just fine with the right risers.
Pros
Great for mid to long distances, juicy pump, the flex of the board makes it very lively, can pump relatively fast. Got a useful kicktail if someone wants to do manuals or some ollie tricks
Cons
Pretty high of the ground due to the massive wheels, trucks and risers. It might be too unstable for beginners. Tough to push as this is a pump board. On the heavier side due to the wheels.
Why it works
The current setup works wonders for flat pumping. The flexy deck makes the pump juicy and can pump for miles (or kilometers depending where you're from) without stepping off the board. I've tried TKPs for pumping before but prefer RKPs
What I would change
1. Wedges. I would wedge the front truck for more turn and would dewedge the back truck for more lean. 2. Lighter wheels
