The mailman brought some Surf-Rodz Indeesz

I got these in the mail a few days ago.  I heard they turn like crazy.  I have to say that I ordered then from East Coast Core Skates and that guy is really good at customer service.  I ordered some and immediately he emailed and said that color baseplate was out,  did I want to substitute or wait?  I replied to send any color, it was not a big deal.  I figure I am getting these to ride, not to look at.  They ship the next day and get here pretty quick.  When they arrive, there is a hand written note saying thanks for the support and he threw in an extra set of bushing seats in another color.  Nice guy and great customer service.  Unrelated to these trucks, but the guy from Green Banana Skateboards has followed up both times after I have bought decks from him.  Some of these small skateboard shops and companies really things down.

Anyway, another post to follow, but for now I am going to get these together and go for a ride.

Tracker Aggro Quicktracks

Damn Damn Hell Damn.
I found these Trackers with the one solo coffin cut wheel.  But like the wheel I cant ride them because the baseplate on one of the trucks was broken.  I remember getting these, I think they were the third set of trucks I had.  I remember the baseplate broke really quickly, and I think that was a common problem with these.  The upside is the bushings, I now have 2 sets of yellow stims that are old as hell, but were barely ridden.  I am going to get them in some trucks this week and see how they feel.

Skateboard Axle Nut Size

The nut that goes on the axle, that holds the wheel on to the truck is 5/16ths and 24 tpi or threads per inch. To tighten these bolts you need a wrench or socket that is 1/2″
