    On the sprungs, the wheels will definitely extend beyond the front and toe cap...

    Yup... played on skates that have Tnuts, and they work really well. Good thing about it is that if you decide to change again, you can just swap out the chassis by removing the tnuts and screws.

    thats just disgustingly sick... good job with the mount. it looks spot on. Did you use t nuts?

    Japanese, Korean and Chinese characters have some similarities, but could mean totally different things.

    Radiogaga... that looks really good... and I can tell you that it does mean "dragon". Some people get the chinese characters done up, and it completely means something else. My chinese zodiac sign is a rabbit... not exactly the most majestic creature around, but I think I come up with some pretty good designs.

    Konki's are hilo arent they? If they are then its (Front to back) 72-72-80-80

    I think it looks small due to the worn wheels. Give it some time, and I think it will be sweet.

    Hey Aussie, how much does the mount job cost in Melbourne? They dont really do it here in perth, and if they do they use countersunk screws.

    stock, I'm the only one that wears sprungs here in Perth (or I think I'm the only one). Everyone else plays with stock skates and gear and wont try anything 'customed' I must say that from the start, these have been great. I've never been the fastest, most agile or best skater, but the sprungs have given me a lot more confidence. I've had 3 alu chassis dented before, and skates didnt really fit very well. Keith (Sprungster) suggested that I try the Torspos deal that he has, and although the skate doesnt look as 'flash' as some others, I must say that they are solidly built, and the baking was pretty easy. Heel lock has been fantastic, my heels really lock into the skate. The sprungs work really well for me, I can stop much better, and turning is good too. I cant stop on a dime like some guys I know, but it has improved a lot since I've been on Hilos (and vanguards). Am now thinking of whether I should get rid of my wicked skates, or have the chassis swapped with sprungs.

    Drew, any chance to sell the purple gloves?
  15. fatwabbit
    hey gee, what size are those skates
  16. fatwabbit
    I've tried both the alu and MG chassis, and it really doesnt make a difference. At the end of the shift, I'm still out of breath and flopping onto the bench. The weight difference is minute, its mainly the dent resistance of the MG over the alu. That being said, MG is more prone to brittle fracture compared to the more ductile alu... lay man terms, MG stiff, alu not as stiff.

    jeezz.... i'm buying a blues jersey...
  18. fatwabbit
    ok, thanks... the same type of paint would cost about $15 a can here at Bunnings... got some leftover paint from the time i sprayed my cage, maybe I'll do that again for the chassis.
  19. fatwabbit
    that looks sweet... is Krylon the brand or a type of coating?
  20. fatwabbit
    stick envy??
  21. fatwabbit
    rank, sent you a pm on chassis
  22. fatwabbit
    how come there's a RH stick?
  23. fatwabbit
    the RBK 9ks dont look that flashy... thought it would have been something really looking for attention.
  24. fatwabbit
    is it me, or do those RBK 9K's look a little bit larger than the other skates???
  25. fatwabbit
    wow.... that combo is sick!... any chance to get a jersey like that... and yellow is my lucky color.
