Appreciate that!

If you want to bomb hills, put softer bushings on the road side of the hanger and harder on the deck side. You want your back end to be slightly softer than your front truck. This can help reduce speed wobbles in general because you will have more control of your backend. Ideally you would have a lower angle baseplate in the back, but this should help you hit hills.

Oh no way? I never knew that. Really appreciate you sharing this Nate! I'm gonna try this one out

That squeaking tip actually really help me a lot with my roller skates, and it seems that everyone in roller skating I asked, they didn't seem to have an answer for it!

These guys deserve so much more than there getting

Videos with the basics are great and are a necessity for the community! Thank you for filming this!

What I found is that when you're cleaning your tape you can use gardening gloves to protect your fingers. It's a bit overkill and you'll really only do it at home, but it allows me to have peace of mind when cleaning absent-mindedly.

Ive been boarding for almost 1 year now! Thanks for tips, awesome quality as always!!

Great channel! Started skateboarding pools/parks&ramps in the mid-70s then stopped after high school until taking an interest in longboarding recently and I replaced the old 1970's Tracker Mid-Track trucks and green Kryptonic 70mm pool/park wheels on my 1977 Alva Original #1 with 180mm Paris V3's and Blood Orange Liam Morgan 65mm 80A wheels. Keep up the good work and have fun!

Thanks for the wax in the pivot cup idea!

Thanks man, new to skateboarding and these videos have been giving me a next step forward.

Your channel is very informative, particularly for a beginner like myself. Thank you.

Would love a video on some of your favorite safety gear/helmets & stuff!!

Thanks for the tip on squeaking, I've never disassembled my trucks so I hope I don't over tighten them when I put them back together

When you’re tightening your kingpin, as a general rule of thumb, screw down to where the kingpin nut is flush with the top of the kingpin. See if there’s play in your trucks, and if there is, screw down 1/2 rotation, and see if there’s play again. Once the trucks have no play, you’ll be good to go. This is not a rule of thumb, but when I reassemble my trucks I can usually see 1-3 threads of the kingpin depending on my setup.

great content, great channel and vibes!

It’s a sick deck. Low to the ground, flexy, nice wheel cutouts that prevent wheel bite, and perfect for going distances. Similar decks would be the Quest and the Wanderlust (not sure if he has these in production). But the Ember is a solid deck for pushing. Note: it is not a deck you should ride on hills.

Was worth watching till the end cause that last hack was super useful. Thanks for the vid.

Thank you for being to the point! This is tl;dr maintenance!

I've been skateboarding since the '70's and I knew that gum rubber was good for cleaning sand paper but I never thought to use it on griptape. Shoe soles are made of gum rubber sometimes which is what I always used. Second hand stores are a good place to find those. I also love the wax on the urethane parts of the truck suggestion.

As for the paraffin / wax / soap application to counter pivot cup squeaking, there's also a graphite pencil core dust alternative to substitute, which is less greasy (thus, easier to clean), however also lasting less.

Can you do a video on risers; all risers, shock pads to angles...etc...

Graphite spray lubrication (used for key holes in locks) is great for the bushings and truck parts too. It can get messy so use it outside over something you don't want a black stain on if a drip occurs. The bad thing about wax is that it will invite dirt and grime to accumulate in those areas, whereas once applied the graphite spray is dry and not sticky, so less chance of accruing dirt in those areas. Great video as always, keep em coming. I enjoy your laid back review style. You and your crew should do some videos of just skating too. Cruising, carving, antics, whatnot. Like the snowskate video, that was fun to watch. Thanks for putting out useful and entertaining content, keep it up!

You should do a review on one of the 121c carbon fiber boards. Super sustainable for the environment not to mention nye indestructible. Would be awesome if someone like you did a review on them since like no one has really done an in-depth review of these boards. Just a thought. Love the channel BTW keep up the awesome vids. 🤙🏻

Keep up the work!

can you do a video showing how to take the bolts out? I hear what your saying but I'd love to just see how it's done, thanks!

if the board is squeking, it is also because there is no grease left in the hole of the base plate, which causes more feiction, which results in squeaking, so you can get some lithium grease (the sticky annoying stuff) and put it in the hole of the base plate where the hanger goes (idk what it is called

Can you do a video on skate racks/stands? Seems floor stands have an issue with spacing for longboards/surfskates

an even better squeaky truck fix is a drop of silicone oil in the pivot cup. If that doesn't fix it, then a drop on the bushings... Don't use petroleum oil, since that dissolves plastic...

i was paranoid about my longboard making that weird skeking sound but thanks to saying that it is the truck

All right question here from a guy who wants to get back in longboarding: I have a 2012 (I think) land yatch drop carve that I really like. But now I am mostly cruising around and for that I feel the ride a little to rough. If I change the wheels for something bigger and softer (I have now my old mini zombies 70mm 80a) will it really change the smoothness of the ride? We ride in the city with lots of imperfections on the road.

Thanks! been meaning to clean my griptape...

Any tips on what to do if we use new bearings and the truck axle has extra space on the side after tightening the axle nut? I switched zealous bearings onto my hawgs but the original spaceball bearings were a little wider so the axle nut would screw on perfectly leaving no extra space on the axle. However, with zealous it would appear that there is a little left over on the truck axle (should this be something to be concerned about?)

Instead of paraffin or wax, you can use silicon fat lube. It's very effective to get the squeaking away and protect the rubber.

@@concrete-waves Silicone based grease also works, I put it in all my pivot cups. I also upgraded to Riot Cups (Except for my Sabre trucks which already come with decent urethane pivot cups). Putting (silicone) grease between bushing and hanger might be too much - depending on the bushing seat of the hanger. In some cases (more open bushing seats) the bushing then will move around way too much and resistance against turning goes way down.
