This thread has been dormant for months! But this board has been anything but idle.
I wrote a lengthy update post a few months ago, but then fat-fingered the save draft button and deleted it ![]()
if you thought the other update posts were long…
Races!
I’ve raced Ankle Wreacher in bunch of races in the past couple months.
- Esk8con 2024
- Electrify Expo Phoenix(Pro)
- Electrify Expo Long Beach(Pro)
- Electrify Expo Long Beach(Pro)
At esk8con,
I fell got launched in my second heat race(skill issue), and missed making it to the final by a single point ![]()
On the positive side, I got the sickest onboard video I’ve ever recorded.
I also have to share this video from Tilo of our thane race. Was the most fun part of the weekend (sound on)
Tilo Zhu-Dollenbacher on Instagram: "thank you @tuckjohn37 for the most fun race of the weekend, and apologies to @davidpilny and @vasekhruby for losing our lead 😅"
At EE Long Beach (Pro),
I took 1st place in the saturday race! Hoping that it’s the first of many.
Also, on the unlikely chance you haven’t see it yet, Electrify Expo hired a documentary crew that’s been filming the race series. They’ve been doing a good job with these first episodes.
Following esk8con, I took a recovery break from esk8 racing.
I adopted an adorable pair of cats. I love these buggers.
Getting back into it, a lot of my attention was pulled away from Ankle Wreacher as I built myself a “not-a-raceboard”.
Nothing Fancy’s build thread here;
If you’re curious, I wrote up a comparison of what these two boards feel like on the track, specifically comparing 3-links with Duality Trucks. #204 over there.
