Love this guyâs geeky analysis of skateboard geometries especially with reference to true LDP (pump not push). Obviously he hasnât cottoned on to esk8 yet though.

Should be sorting through boxes and restoring some product back on shelves over the coming weekend.
The Writer of the article was 100% correct about "their " modeling as non functional.
Problem is their model was a poor interpretation and shows a complete midunderstanding of 3-link function.
Super irresponsible.
Swing and a Miss!

Its a misiformation âhit piece.â
It by design is to confuse readers with the writers improper mechanical modeling and the hypothesis based on that.
You tell me, what is there to be positive about this.

Yeah 3 sentences into that it started smelling like a bit of a smeer campaign. I havnt personally tried your trucks but I am currently building a board for a customer and he asked for them, hopefully he is cool with me taking a spin around the block on it when Iâm done

I mean it was definitely not what I would call âwell writtenâ but it didnât seem agressive to me. To be fair I skimmed, but still
Saying itâs intentionally confusing people is kind of a stretch - I just think the writer had no clue what he was talking about
Having the conclusion of âidk how this truck worksâ kind of proves that

Heâs going about it the same way a flat-earther tries to argue with someone about the earth being a globe. Because he doesnât understand the science, it doesnât work and everyone else is wrong. He basically chalks it up to poor tolerances and sloppy manufacturing (note: I am not saying the 3 link has this, quite the contrary) and using those weak points to get some âflexâ and turnability. Iâd say itâs a pretty useless article, or at the very least it proves that there is a lot more magical mystical science that Stooge knows that most donât. If the guy has no clue what heâs talking about, he shouldnât be writing an article about it. Kind of like someone having an âaccidental dischargeâ with a firearm - itâs not accidental, itâs negligent.

I read what he said a few times, I am not going to try to understand what he is sayingâŚtoo much snark and not enough pictures and a simple cad animation.
I used the toothpicks to keep my eyes open while reading for the third timeâŚthey were not strong enough.

I understood what heâs saying, so i got his conundrum. but he spends a lot of time snarking and in the end says he doesnât understand how they work.
But his model is simpler than what is actually happening. Itâs the wrong model. which a rational engineer would have concluded when seeing evidence that they do work but heâs not able to explain it.
Way too much arrogance.
Dunning-Krueger exemplified.

We have had run-ins with this gentleman in the past and confronting him gives him exactly what he cravesâŚdrama. He influences very few people and is a complete waste of energy. Time to move on, defending the writer is futile.

Dude is quite, Opinionated for sure.
He can make good content, or he has in the past. But he has a real chip on his shoulder and now thatâs kinda the only thing defining his work.
For the past few years his site I think has just been an outlet for when he feels at odds with the community rather than a place to explain what he knows.

Sounds like he may have a personality disorder.
