i have the mag lights and i love them!!! i love the lightness. i skae indys for 30 years and i cant believe i switched but the mag lights got me killing it!!! and they grind super good
Lol...I got the xv or vx??? The light 150$ bulletproof deck. Didn't stop there. Bronson bearings and shark 54 97a wheels. Once you get those mag trucks you may as well go all the way and build a Ferrari
had three sets, bent the axles on all three skating flatground, they lasted a couple months each... and I only weigh 140lbs. They're great trucks, but the axles need sorting out. The grind on them is amazing.
They grind super good. The only issue is that the hollow axle will bend when you slappy them for a while. Also the magnesium material seems to be a bit more fragile than classic aluminium so they will deteriorate faster.
I have had them for over a year. I have three skateboards; the one that I have the Tensor light on is my light board. My light board setup is for when my legs are sore or tired from weight lifting and to get extra practice since I had knee surgery seven years ago. I know it does help because there are times when I'll attempt tricks over 100 times, and my legs are a lot fresher since my setup is really light.
hey i am looking for buying a deck so i was looking for light stuff, and i have a question, you are saying that your light board setup is for "when ur legs are sore or tired from weight lifting and to get extra practice since you had knee surgery seven years ago", my question is, what are the other board for ? is there sometime when you prefere to use a heavier skate ? personnaly i have no issue with legs or anything, i just logically thought that lighter skateboard = better skateboard, but i saw ppl on internet sayin that it was not always the case
@@NK.joestar - Nope, A lighter board isn't necessarily going to make the skateboarding better. I brought the impact of light skateboards and Andy Anderson. I usually ride an 8.0; the highest board I have is the Andy Anderson, where in the middle, it's 8.45, and around the wheels, it's about 8. something. I brought the board thinking it would help me magically land all the tricks I have wanted. However, the board isn't the issue; it is my skill level. I can see how the board can make a lot of flip tricks easier with its design and the specific area needed to flip. Anybody, the board is fine; I think the size would be important to consider.
Flatter board would probably help your ankle too, I’ve heard mini logo decks are nice for people who like flat boards. I like the feeling of flatter boards but I like the stiffness/rigidity of steep kicks/concave
I have skated tensors for a few years and one thing about them is the bushings.I have tried just about every bushing combo you can think of and what I did was I put a thunder bushings in and also riptide street bushings works as well.just throw those tensor bushings away there garbage unless you like super tight trucks
I have mag lights and I don't like the bushings, so I change them to doh doh bushings. I noticed Mag lights are too light for me, but I use a hybrid setup with Tensor mag light hanger and a Ace baseplate 😄If the setup is too light it feels a bit floaty.
Holy crap!!! Dude we have to exchange and share experiments. I'm mick jick on Facebook...Edmonton. have you tried both kinds of shark wheels??? Let's talk ultimate setups. I have 5 wooden children I've built. Performance is astounding
They are very similar to Indy Stage 11 but super light. However, I have to say I recently switched to Indy Forged Titaniums and I dont know if its the added little bit of weight or what, but my pop is higher and more controlled, also indy turn slightly deeper. Also I have to say when I look through the axle even when they were brand new, the axle looked slightly bent. If you are a beginer and want light trucks i would recommend Indy Forged Titaniums or even Forged Hollows for a better price.
You'll done they will grind almost anything I have a pair on a slick deck also that drop you did that showed you broke the other tensors don't try that on the maglights you will break them
For me the mag lights low were terrible yhe baseplate broke in 1 day with a pop shuv on flat, had them a couple times because I like theyre so light but they always break
Do tensors come in lo’s mids or hi? I’m trying to find a pair but I can’t find any labeling or height measurements. I’m wanting a mid but can’t tell which I am ordering.
I have Carbon fibre baseplate and hanger, dont thing u got the lightest in world, but arguably the lightest available on market to buy, if u want to stay in touch can give u sneak peak of my buddies
I'm trying to get into Skateboarding I always loved the skate games and I would see places IRL and think that I would be sick to skate. I had a Plan B complete deck for maybe like 2 years then last year I tried using it for the first time but felt I was pushing a lot and I fell. I thought it was just cause I'm new and ass but turns out only one wheel span like normal the rest would barely span (It had just been inside the house so it's not like it was out in cold weathers). Either way I'm trying to get back into it I live in a small town in the UK. I'm like 5'll/6 feet weigh like 140lbs wear like size 9.5 (vans) and was just curious what would be the best board size? I did just Order a Supreme Purple KAES bogo deck which I think is a 8.375 (Will this be too big? my aim is to get the basics down like cruising, ollie's and all that but I would love to be able to street skate. Maybe even skate at the Skatepark near mine even tho it's just a halfpipe, fun box, then the other side is just different quaterpipes and a roll-in. It's such a poor skatepark there is worse in my town but this is the Blyth sports centre you would think they would have decent park. I do want to try and make it in SkaterXL even tho I think the funbox would be the only working obstacle lmao). We are getting a 200k+ Skatepark but the section they are budling it is right next to the Skatepark I'm on about and this other real bad one which I basically a quarter pipe, kicker and rail (There's a bridge near that park which apparently people have hung themselves there). Basically these parks even if I was good enough I would only go to at like 6/7am lmaoo I know I got off topic but any help on knowing what size board I should use would be greatly appreciated. Same with Truck I was thinking of just building a full Supreme board (If the current deck I bought is too big I don't mind it as an art piece tbh sins I love the KAWS Bogo and purple)
I don't think 8.375 will be too big! It's all about big sizes these days. I have a friend around your measures that ride the same. Hope everything you'll go for will come with a lot of fun :)
There's no real point to these tensor maglite... They are already for skinny boards, light 8.5 and below. Ace is the only one making super lightweight trucks that can accommodate a 10in deck
@@davidleeashkenazi8992 there's some details missing here. What size trucks are the indies? How many grams do they weigh in at? What model are the ace trucks? What do they weigh in grams? Your statement has no data behind it, therefore it's not believable that the heaviest machine truck in the market is somehow lighter than the lightest weight cast truck.
Trucks can certainly be too light. I usually go for Indy or venture standard, I feel like the weight gives it enough momentum to stay on course to catch your feet. The Indy forged hollows are nice but nearing too light, they do make it easier to do tricks higher and skate longer. Thunder forged hollows seem too light for my liking.
