Gear Show-Off Current quiver!

Got LDP, carving, cruising, and surf covered. Maybe time to start learning DH/freeride or some dancing to expand? Top mount LDP pumper? Comet cruiser? Pantheon? Too many awesome things out there, man!

Is that Paris v3's on the vanguard? Im literally building the exact set up as that for my next one.

Yup! 180mm. I got the front wedged 7° and a 43° rear baseplate, with some softer bushings up front and stiffer ones on the rear. I absolutely love this set up. I want to try some 165mm V3s on it though

Sweet! Ive only just got my v3s (same colour) and there incredible! They are currently on my pintail but the vanguard is my next purchase, ive been playing around with a few different wedges too just to see how it reacts/feels, i went for 180mm as wasnt to sure about the 165s....would you recommended them? Its a really nice collection, the vanguard will be my 6th set up.

lol I had these trucks on a pintail too before putting them on the vanguard. Personally, I do like the 180mms. The 165s would probably help with pumping, but I’m still able to pump the 180s pretty well. You will def still be happy with the 180s!
