Review Preview Part 1: Khiro Bushings, Scoff Skate Laces, P-Tip Skateboards, and Theeve TIAX Trucks

[retroskater99]

does anybody know a website where i could buy cheap trucks? dont mind what colour or brand

[aaroniamescua]

Theeves for life, that's all.

[MrSk8erg]

That's not a built in washer it's a metal insert and the technology is called double action bushings there awesome just like bones

[grimcity]

@MrSk8erg

The built in metal insert is, in effect, the same as a built in washer. I do agree though, fantastic bushings.

[trymeansfail]

ya long beach !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[the1minininja]

THE NASH BOARD!!!!!!!!!!!!

[grimcity]

@the1minininja

Yeah, it's an old one! Almost as old as me!

[the1minininja]

@grimcity are you still rock'n it?!?!?!

[grimcity]

@the1minininja

Oh, I still have it... one of my favorite boards in my collection.

[LordLongBoards]

longboard living??

[LordLongBoards]

where is this video taken is it taken a longboard living in kensington market ???

[grimcity]

@LordLongBoards

It was shot at my home office in Hammond Louisiana... the board is a Joel Tudor from Think... it's got some years on it.

[muchdeep89]

Could the 'biatch' have double dura?

[theoryskater16]

khiro are just like bones hardcore bushings. btw you should try those if you haven't their the best. i prefer medium

[grimcity]

@theoryskater16

I gotta respectfully disagree... Khiros have a built in metal washer and come in roughly a dozen durometers. Bones are super good, but they're different beasts. Cheers!

[skyking166]

After your review, i brought a P-tip. It pops just like a traditional 7ply maple deck, but then it's slippery, like when you land upside down or try to do a tre, it just slide out. The tip needs to be change about every 2 week (at least for me, i skate pretty much every day). i would say the pop is about average. If i were to give the board a rating, it be 6.5-7 /10 overall. Like i can live with it, but i wouldn't buy another of the same deck.

[grimcity]

@skyking166

Thanks for your perspective skyking! Cheers!

[snowsk8er4life360]

I thought the board said hoe instead of one

[grimcity]

@XxSAMMYzozaxX

The laces are insane... the ones I have are pretty much indestructible!

[Mlocke69]

Hey Grimcity nice video happy new year

[xboxlivegstar11]

i thought i'd just wish you a merry xmas and new year keep the reviews coming :)

[grimcity]

@xboxlivegstar11

Thanks xbox! You have a great one too homie! w00t!!!

[LUXfingerboard]

where can i get the laces in europe ? 

[grimcity]

@LUXfingerboard

Not sure, LUX... throw an email through their site, I'm pretty sure they'll ship overseas!

[TheETownSkater]

Bandit had a little too much catnip...

[grimcity]

@TheETownSkater

Yeah, I keep him pretty faded... haha

[JamalJennings]

Do the Khiro Bushing stick when you first start riding them or is it perfect like bones bushings?

[grimcity]

@JamalJennings

Depending on what hardness you get, they may need to get broken in a bit.

[mr22otters]

bro im really a skeptic about trucks since ive been riding thunder for like 1 1/2 now and their really good. but ive heard alot about theeve and ive been wondering if their as light as thunders?

[skatewad1]

@mr22otters bro. theyre good. just get them. bro.

[skyking166]

lol the bitch bushings thumbs up!

[jaredmstein]

Oh, I have to try those Scoffs.I've been gluing on old shoe parts over my front foot laces just like the old Airwalks.

[BenTen559]

scoffs aare rad, never rip, get em.

[grimcity]

@BenTen559 Yeah, they've completely changed my concept on laces. I used to never really care, but these things are beast!

[BenTen559]

for real, how did the thievves turn out?

[Thecabbagekiller]

@grimcity hey! what do you think of the orginal spitfires compared to the f1s???

[SkateIslam]

im really interested in all the new technology with skateboarding lately. im sceptical of most of it, so im really psyched that your gonna do these reviews. i'll probably show my friend this because he was planning on getting some theeve trucks because he thought they looked good and they got a sweet team. something i wanna see reviewed is a 100% carbon fiber skateboard. ive seen some ads but im really skeptical about it.

[ForrestNunn]

i want that Independent ring!

[grimcity]

@ForrestNunn

Nooooo! haha... that thing's like a part of me... I have a wedding ring on one hand, and that ring on another. Married to m'lady, and married to skating. haha. Cheers!

[BUFskater1275]

oh shit man how do you rip your laces all the way at the top of the shoe like that haha

[grimcity]

@BUFskater1275 It's crazy, I seem to shred them everywhere, but when I slice them, it's always up high like that. I must have some mutated club feet or something! haha

[BUFskater1275]

yeah man that's crazy. i usually only blow out the bottom 3 or so. i'm going to look into theese scoff laces though

[agentslapshocker]

@grimcity

I shred my laces from the top, too. LOL

BTW. Are Khiro Bushings (Hard) as good as Independent Bushings (Hard)?

[Bestmorganiz]

Im so stoked to see that your reviewing some shoe laces. Ive been waiting for someone to turn direction, and focus not only on skate gear, but the shoe itself. The feel of going from used worn shoe laces, to brand new ones, is without a doubt recognizable. Just have fun with it man! Thanks, Im stoked to here more about it.

[donnisdelcid]

welcome bak man

[angrybeans]

lol i go to a vo tech school

[grimcity]

@angrybeans Vo-Tech's are the bomb! I have several friends that graduated from VT's and they're killing it in their fields. Just love what you do, that's the main thing!

[scoobers90]
