  • nice socks

    

  • Let me tell you something dont put your board on the street after they put rocksalt on it it will ruin your board better to wait until spring to use it

  • Gobstoppers...WTF

    

  • Wud this board be good for learning freestyle tricks?

  • what risers do you have?

  • should have gotten 65mm wheels

  • Hey, i am completely new to longboarding and im thinking of getting this board. What do you think is the best setup for cruising and carving? thanks :)

  • @DucksGoQuack07 get some paris 180s or indys like this kid . Most earthwing boards ride best with indys. I say get paris 180's and 66mm ABEC 11 Reflex 'Thane Zig Zags for wheels. Thats a sick set up in my opinion.

  • good trucks bro

  • @DaDisaster3o7 what about Paris 180s with 70mm wheels? Or should I just go for the Randals?

  • @Blaze11003 go with paris 180 they are the best :D

  • @DelolGamers No truck is "the best".

  • @Blaze11003 Indys, theyre perfect for it

  • Dude where did you buy that earthwing at ebay i guess?

  • Dude how are you enjoying the board :]

  • re wheel bite on this deck - running 180 randals r2 with 50 degree base plate(stock bushings / loose) and 70mm Abec Grippins with 1/8 inch risers I can only just manage the wheels to scrub the deck a little. So i suppose it depends on your riding style as any bite for hard and fast riders would = skin off. I was after 66mm wheels however stock not available on the day. Will aim to revert to suggested spec of 169's with 66mm in the near future.

  • why didnt you do the flex test?

    + how many plies is it?

  • dude, congrats. i've had mine (gen 1) for about 2 and a half years now, and it's a great board. you'll progress super quickly on it...super-glider-quickly. check out my earthwing vid if you've got a chance

  • hey dude,where do you live because i ordered a earthwing supermodel and i would like to know how long it took for you and the distance from you to new york so i could have a rough estimate on the time it would take to ship ps.sweet board

  • how do you still like those indy's? i see ppl on here that have randals on those

  • I was so stoked when you were opening it! Can't wait to order mine.

  • hey man im prolly gonna get that same setup. do u get wheel bite?

  • i love my superglider

    i hope you enjoy yours too

  • Uhm, you can't because randals are tall trucks. If you had Indys (which are closer to the board) can. Trust me dude i have indys and i can get wheel bites. And it doesnt matter about bushing set-ups either because no matter how hard you turn your wheels will never touch the board when you have randals.

  • You can't get wheel bites from randals because Indys are lower than Randals. Randals are talller, and plus i have this board with indys and you will get wheel bites because you have 70mm wheels and indys.

  • @DaDisaster3o7

    This is not necessarily true though you get wheel bite he may not. it all depends on how your trucks are set up how tight the trucks are as well as your bushing set up. Usually a little bit of tweeking your set up can eliminate bite.

    And yes you can get bite on randals.

  • @SurrealLimit Do you have a superglider?

  • @DaDisaster3o7

    I do not own one personally, but i do have a friend who has one and he is running indy's and it just so happens he has my earthwing foater 70mm's on it right now and he hasn't got even the smallest amount of bite. There is to many factors to take into account. In most cases you cannot just look at someones set up and be like "That will for sure get bite". You have to think how heavy is he? what kind of bushings does he have? how tight are his trucks? How wide is the wheel? Etc..

  • @SurrealLimit Dude, im not trying to be a douche, but I have one, you don't. Sometimes when i do 180 stand ups... Wheel bite.... sometimes a face plant etc......

  • @DaDisaster3o7 you catch wheel bite? i'm running randalls r2 180's with 76mm wheels with out risers and ive never caught wheel bite btw my bushings are 84a soo idk how you're catching that lol

  • @zatachi1 yeah cuz my indys are low to the ground plus its closer to the board so if i had a 70mm wheel, i would get wheel bite.

  • @zatachi1 I have indys not randals randals are a taller truck than indys.

  • this board is absolutely beautiful. wanttt.

    ps, love the mismatched socks. ;)

  • @loobop123

    I love the board too. just stay away from 70mm wheels if you have indys.

  • Mannn, i miss when my superglider looked this good

  • Did you get wheelbites ?? Because lots of people say that, is it true?? I like this board and maybe ill get one soon

  • @GRjoseantonio You might get wheelbite 66mm wheels are best for this board, but if you were to get a 70mm wheel you would need higher risers.

  • whats the specs on that board? and how well did it ride on flat land?was it able to do slides? im asking cuz im thinkin bout buying one but i wanna know if itll carv up florida like i want it to.

  • @Roboy14233 You can Google for the specs, and it's made as a flatland board. It can slide fine (see this video for footage of the Supercharger, just a longer version of the Superglider, doing all kinds of stuff: /watch?v=LUiBWNDRZng)

  • awesome board !!! i think it might have been better with indy 215's though just my opinion, beautiful board man!

  • is that the 4 or 5 ply. And do you get any wheel bite with the indys
