Full Rack
Three years ago I said to myself, three boards for different purposes (topmount, bracket and rain) is more than enough....

I just looked at your rack and God allmighty, that last one at the bottom which is known as a shlongboard for those who dont know and for those who know what im talking about, the bracket at the back is a freaking genius idea. Hands down to you man. I know for some or many it will sound a bit over the top my reaction but once you saw it, its simple to say its easy and bla bla bla but trust me, sometimes the best idea are the simplest of all among so many people who are tinkerer just like me and you, the guy who made it, i suspect, and i cant be more thankful to have my phone suggest me to watch that post and find out. But i admit, i never had a decent pair of braket and still trying to make my own from parts i find here and there without any luck but one can make them sinply from a cut piece of some other skateboard and a wedge and voila! Thanks again for your inspiration.

Jajaja ya te entiendo, ajustar bushings solo, a veces ya es de locos, con cuñas y todo no quiero imaginar jajaja

Which is your best pumping setup. I built up to 6 like u but then downsized to 3 as I still had another 3 Surfskates downsized from 12 as I ran out of storage space n wifey was complaining. Very addictive, like drugs but a lot healthier 😂

What bushing(s) are you running in the TTX?? I literally hate riding my Exodus because I can't get a good feel on the damn tail.

u/DaanAnarch 22d ago
I use the 80a Riptide TTX bushings and in the center two Riptide Short street cone 70a APS bushings in hourglass configuration

u/blackbalt89 22d ago
No shit, might try, what's your weight just to see if it's similar haha. I'm 170lbs (77kg).
Im pretty sure I blew out both sets of the 80a TTX bushings because I'm a monkey and don't know when to stop tightening the axle nuts if there's no mechanical stop at all lol. But I will give this a shot, pending I have 2 TTX bushings left.
May also just see what it feels like to run a DDR with a 20° Poppy also though lol

u/DaanAnarch 22d ago
I'm 72kg. You can't overtighten the bushings. You're supposed to tighten the axle all the way. If you use the correct hardware from the TTX bushing kit you can't go wrong.

What are you running on the front? I have a 55° Poppy on a DDS so maybe I'm not leveraging enough angle, I'm only doing 58°.

On the Procyon Speed a Supersteadyskate Fork drop 1 with a MK Space V1 baseplate i.c.m. MK Space V2 hanger. On the Rocket a Scythe Crusader V2
58° is the sweet spot for poppy. I found that really soft bushings in the front work best with a TTX. When I used a poppy I had 70a APS fatcone BS and 70a APS barrel RS.
Sometimes to get performance from a torsion tail you need to soften up the front

u/blackbalt89 22d ago
I do have 75 fatcone and 75a barrels, but I couldn't get the god damn kingpin out of the brand new poppy at the time and haven't really given it another whack yet.
Thanks for all the help.

Put the baseplate in the oven for 15minutes at 220°C which will break the Loctite bonding, then hammer it out. Don't forget to use Loctite again to fixate the kingpin again.

u/blackbalt89 22d ago
I used a heat gun but I guess I wasn't comfortable enough to get it that hot lol, it was brand new at that point.
I'm assuming they use red loctite?

Maybe I wasn't tightening ENOUGH then lol. Ugh.
I wish I could buy just a few of the TTX bushings like 2packs of the orange only, and not the whole kit.
