    7.75 is OG. That's what I ride. Back in the day only skaters to rock bigger than a 7.75 were vert skaters. Now it's normal to ride a 8 and above in the street.

      Better king pin clearance and I am old, tall and play football for a living. Too much wheel bite happenin' for this Dog.
      I ain't carvin bowls. I've stil got love for the street. Crooks, feebles, smiths, slides, 360 flips etc. The straight 8.

    Edit: I’m with you on not wanting to switch trucks. Unfortunately my axels are beat to shit and it’s becoming impossible to get the nut on and off when switching wheels (and I think the mounting holes in my base plates are starting to warp), so I’ll have no choice but to re-up next time I get a new deck. 😰

    That's all I skated when I started skating back in 1999, was 7.75. I tried 7.63 but that was a little bit too thin, then I went to 7.8 and that's all I skated for a bit. Then I went to 8.0 and now I'm skating 8.25. I just do basic tricks. But I do have to say with a bigger board it's more fun to grind and slide and skate transition. But I pretty much lost all my flip tricks with a bigger board. I might have to go back to my roots since I'm getting old now and get a set of 7.75 trucks and a 7.75 board to relive the past❤. I'm sure I will have more control of the board plus it will be way lighter since my current setup I'm running regular independent trucks.

    i tried those bearings bc i saw them on clearance at zumiez. Abec-9= super smooth/tight tolerances races to ball ratio. BUUUT once they get a lil dirty the QUALITY of your experience will diminish. The bearings are TAYLOR made for indoor/private park skating and contests. After a few sessions out doors or a few puddles/water mixing with the grease they tend to turn into any would be AVG range bearing as far as speed/wall to wall combos/lines in a flow/transition park. BUT when theyre fresh Definitely better than a majority of bearings ive tried at their "sale" price point. Hell even at 25$ theyre smoother/faster than bronsons, bones reds, indy abec 7's etc. At that 20-25$ price point. The only better option at that price range is the bones big balls/6 ball reds. Which are also pretty good/decent up until they get dry/crusty/worn. IMO THOUGH the 6 balls are much more resiliant by a MILE compared to the abec-9 nothing specials NGL im talking monthly speed cream applications and opening them up to clean them out and air/electric air dry them or blow dry them with the cold setting on a blowdryer...IF you want that same OUT of the box performance. TO damn tedioius and they demand too much attention. Then again bones reds only really last a YEAR max....if not 3-6m if you dont maintain them as far as PEAK speed/performance otherwise the races get MARRED and have a tendency to chatter/get jerky in transition doing bigger airs/transfers...youll notice these things doing airs the way the wheels grip/smoothness as you land into a transition if your bearings need maintenance or are past the point of being re-conditioned....youll have this jerky/hesitation with your speed/transfer...and it ruins wall to wall/speed/flow. Still though out of the box theyre very fast/smooth very good for flow/transition skating they keep speed really good if you like doing multi trick lines in your local/blowl/flow section. The 6 ball reds just are equally smooth and just as fast if your landing into transitions/transfers/speed pumping. And stay smoother/faster/longer. But i got the diegos and the robert neals for like 10$ each....so i cant complain. Put the diegos on a mini cruiser for a kids first setup with some ricta clouds...very smooth/fast setup.

      If you’re on the shorter side of humans 7.75 sticks to your feet like glue and is generally more responsive to flips shuvs what ever you are trying to do. Manny just drops a size smaller for street than most. I ride 7.75 for street. It’s legit. Don’t have to think about how hard you have to scoop or flick. Lighter and more control too. 7.75 shorts were the only set up to have for street 20 years ago.
