1:05 is genius! I want that thing :D

[@SunriseSessions]

Wow that was really good. And I definitely recognise the fact that it's a friendly learning community.
I have a question about riding bowls. Another youtuber mentioned that it was way harder to carvegrind with the Yow trucks than it was with other trucks. Because it felt like the Yow trucks were from softer metal. Have you had the same experience? And how do the Yow and Smoothstar compare for grinding?

[@nightpandas7178]

What would happen if you put a smaller shorter version of these swivel trucks on a skateboard? Imagine the tricks

[@DoubleOverhead]

I just hope to see some of your awesome riding here on this platform! Cheers

[@danielaguilerairala3223]

Thanks 🙏 🤙

[@SunriseSessions]

BTW I already subbed after your Meraki truck vid simply because of your style in the bowl👊For future video's everything that has to do with the bowl and pool riding is super interesting. And maybe a special on surfskate wheels😉

[@Aguiii_Rides]

Hey thank you for the support, we are planning on a comparison video between Sm... and Y..., can't say more, but soon we will be posting new content both on CZcams and Insta 🤟🤟

I started on Carver CX. Moved to C7. Then got a Sweltech off CL and got Waterborne to put on a longboard I had. After a month of that Sweltech I lucked out and found a YOW. I have yet to see or try a Smoothstar but YOW is my daily rider. I broke the spring from almost daily us and am waiting for some springs to come in. I can't get a Decathlon mailed where I live but I want to try that too.
Ultimately, If you have a chance, get a surfskate. Period. But if price is no object get a YOW.

[@Aguiii_Rides]

For me my go to surf skates are either Smoothstar or Yow. I have owned 3 Yows and 2 Smoothstars, and they truly feel like surfing. I would not look into the Decathlon surfskate, I have personally tried it and it is not really good at all. It is good for day 1 or 2 of surf skating, but you will outgrow it fast. I would look for a Slide instead, they have the best feel for the price.

Patinas en Nepal no?? A ver si me escapo un día y me aconsejas... Tengo CX y me saben a poco, estoy entre meraki, c7 o swelltech. Suscrito al canal en cuanto lo he visto, le pegas muy duro!!!

[@Aguiii_Rides]

Si, patinamos en el Nepal. Dentro de poco subiremos otra comparativa, a ver si te sirve de ayuda para tomar tu decisión. Bienvenido al canal.

👍👍👍

[@JohnAvillaHerpetocultural]

Wait, the guy’s name is carver? We’re definitely not living in a simulation 😂

[@Taffiter85]

I have both carver and slide and I think slide is much better than carver

[@Aguiii_Rides]

Slide is one of our favourites too🤘🏼
