aces have been perfect for me so far, especially since I like my trucks a bit loose. re-threading axle nut and included rethreader is great since I land primo a lot edit: I love the slowed home: resonance, it sounds great and won't get picked up by youtube's crappy copyright system lol
I'm a loyal Ace convert/customer. They look tidy, they turn and they're strong...and I'm looking forward to the inverted kingpin baseplates from Ace, too!
I have exactly this ACE AF1 truck in this color, the best truck I've ever used, it's incredible for cornering. The only thing I changed was the rubbers, which were very soft! 🇧🇷🛹❤️🔥👏🏻👏🏻🤘🏻
I’ve Road every truck I’m 50 years old now. I still think indis just feel right. Can’t explain it. Just hop on a pair of hollows and it’s instant comfort. Shoot I rode thunders for 15 straight years. And still love them. Then Bought a set of aces seemed to squirrely so gave them to my son. And went back to indis. But I’m thinking I just might try them one last time. I love aces quality. They’re amazing shit. I ride two size boards 8.5 and 8.75. Well right on my dude 👍🏼
Going to get exactly these but I really don't know whether to get 44 or 55. I skate 8.5 mostly, sometimes smaller, might try even bigger ones in the future
I usually just put my new hanger on my old baseplates. I put the bushing back exactly how they were before that way they feel as close to old truck as possible
i gotta get my hands on some AF1 60 I normally ride stage x 159s and I've tried a couple sets of venture 6.1s but I definitely want to run ace 60s on a 8.8-9.25 shaped deck for that extra turn/fun for slappy's and transition skating. I run 8.75" on 8.38 decks too I have no issues with overhang I love the extra room for lockins and slasher grinds
@@lucidityfps9638 They are 8.75 trucks. Most of the modern street wheels that I've skated such as Powell Dragons and Bones subtract 1/8". So, if you put 8.75 trucks on a 8.5 deck, the wheels pretty much line right up with the edge of the deck. Yes, the axle will stick out a little, but, I prefer to have the edges of my wheels line up with the edges of the deck rather than matching it to the end of the axle and having the wheels in a little. 159s are the sweet spot for me. I just ordered some Ace 60s. Really, I wanted the 66s for a 9" deck, but, they were sold out. I'll try 60s on an 8.75 deck for the time being.
Anybody think Riot plugs could fit the Aces. My Surf Rodz TKP are getting warned down and the Surf Keys (similar to Riot plugs) work like bueno for carving on ramps and Bowls. I heard that the classic Aces was almost as turning as the Surf Rodz. So maybe new AF1 is even better in turn vs lean. Most will probably say aahh riots it for downhill riding only.
I've always wanted to try them but they're just too got dayum tall for me, I used to ride thunder's and now I ride indy mid's, I can't ride a standard indy either because they're also too tall for me augh
Street wheels usually don't extend to the edge of the axle. So, you are better off upsizing and matching the edge of the wheel to the edge of the deck.
mad respect for that little kid 7:05

I just ordered a pair of the low 55 and i’m gonna throw in the krux V3 inverted king pin. Just like my thunders 149

Thanks for the video! I’m getting the 60’s and putting them on my 8.5 too! More truck to grind on!
That color way looks sick on those trucks!
Yo, Matt! Your uploads never disappoint. Always choosing impeccable instrumentals. Keep doing what you’re doing.
AF1’s turn LUXURIOUSLY

Got my first pair, holy smokes they feel really cool.
Resonance will never get old
i love the sped up tell em by cochise and $not
keep up the good work bro!
More 🔥. Thanks man.
Ace 🔥
High performance, nice design
Hard to find a truck that looks or preforms better than Ace
I got the Indy titanium's in 8.75 on an 8.5 deck. Perfection.
Do you get overhang on that board size?
@@lucidityfps9638 barely but it's not noticable. I like have more grind clearance. Hope that helps!
@@jonathansmith4097
Much appreciated. Would I need riser pads if I wanted to use that size on an 8.5 or 8.75 deck to prevent wheel bite?
@@lucidityfps9638 it's up to you. I ride my trucks pretty tight so I don't get wheel bite much
I ride the ace 55 with a 8.625 quasi and they b fittin nice
dig this style of video and content.
Dude Matt. I think you convinced me to get ace’s
just got these today because of him
Bro your deck is sick . It's the deck I have and I haven't seen anyone else with it . Support your local skate shop
Lol ive seen those shop boards everywhere
Zumiez 4 life! (JK) Zumiez sucks! Amazon, Target, and Toys R Us boards 4 life!
I have that same real deck in 8.5 pretty nice wood I think
Dope video bro
They’ve been sold out at my skate shop for awhile in Australia
I had 55’s and broke two kingpins!
But it’s important to mention I weighed 120kgs
what wheels are those buddy?
embark is my local? your from the dmv?

Are they too small for an 8 or 8.5?

Your style is smooth
I've always wanted to try them but they're just too got dayum tall for me, I used to ride thunder's and now I ride indy mid's, I can't ride a standard indy either because they're also too tall for me augh
Nice
Is that the park in Leesburg VA.
bro i used to skate them but theyre too looose for me so i switched to thunders and its the perfect medium
just get some bones bushings
Get the ACE Hard bushings. They are perfect. Stock bushings are too loose for me
Thunder turns like crap IMHO
do ace trucks allow you to swap your bushings with other brand? i'm planning to buy one.
what size is your board?
Cool vid! Anyone know the mm of those wheels? LOVE how turny they look here. I want AF1's and like wheels as wide as possible without wheel bite.
My guess is Spitfire Formula 4 Conical Fulls. 58mm wore down some and hence having a wider contact patch. That would be my guess.
I like aces to mix it up but Indy still best
Yoooo mans got a video sponsor 🤘
Yo Matt what is your shoe size?
Matt can you help me with my kid’s setup ? I am a dad of a 11yr old news skater and don’t know if I got a good setup.
I thought this was an AF1 video, (Air Force 1)
Get some royals next
I think he said 8.5😊
bro im trynnna be like u
Embark in Frederick Maryland? I know those guys they used to be called pitctew skate shop. Awesome 👍😎
yes that one, it was Pitcrew back then
Trucks shouldn't be wider than the board for better turning
Street wheels usually don't extend to the edge of the axle. So, you are better off upsizing and matching the edge of the wheel to the edge of the deck.
God I hate long videos that go nowhere .
Matts skating is boring..it lacks character.
don’t watch then 😹😹
Where's your skating?
you lack character you hate on peoples youtube videos for a living
wdym his style is great
Let's see your channel then
Yeah bro I got ace stage 9 indys how i miss u
I don’t get how my comment got deleted. “Baseplates🔥” seems positive to me
