It's closeup riptape, not brr riptape.

It's one of all the china tapes Damien found.

has anyone ordered chemistry trucks yet?

I'm waiting for the locknuts and bushings to be added to the trucks. Thought they don't look amazing on the website...

Im not too keen on the look of Chemistry trucks, it will be interesting to see when people get them to see what they are like.

I just can't see myself buying a set of TD trucks for $20 I know they're hand shaped, but still...

Exactly Chris!

Also, i doubt there is any performance difference on the chemistry trucks compared to the std. longboard truck. Sean said on FFI that they aren't thin enough to fit through the backs on BRT edition wheels.

Honestly, I'm happy enough with the modified TDs I got off Callum. Specifically modified to only fit Oaks. Beautiful. Gonna work out how to do it myself

If you do make a guide Mr Seamus I'd love to be able to do it to some of mine!

I think they just work out your bearing on a compass and fire the bench at your house. Far as I know you can pay extra to have a few more charges thrown in the firing chamber; get it that few extra miles overseas. I recommend standing outside with a butterfly net.

Okay, so recently i bought some brt 32mm and some oak wheels team blues. So i set them up together and my wheels keep coming off. I have washers and im using brt nuts and the wheels arent too lose they sit perfectly on the the truck but as soon as i pop my deck for a trick the wheels come off. If anybody has any tips or notices were i have gone wrong i would be grateful if you replied

*shrugs*

I pay a Mexican to collect for me.

But seriously, Yellowood are a legit company, they'll be solid as far as packaging goes.

They'll probably be so accurate they'll put it through your roof

Try without washers.

First problem is that you're using the washers on BRTs. They're for trucks that aren't BRTs, like chinas, etc. Take the washers off, put the locknuts back on and see what happens. The nuts will stick out the end of the wheel because the bearing is centralised, as opposed to Winklers or FF wheels which aren't centralised.

EDIT: Or...^what Mikkel said lol.
