I feel like they would be possible using lock in fins but I have not had the chance yo use them. Anyone tired one?

It would have to be on something wider than your lock-in fins forsure.

I messed around with 5-0s on a big flat box, I guess it would be considered more of a "slide" than a "grind" either way it was a pretty fun trick. Felt more like trying to get a manual than a "grind".

how could it be wider than your lockin fins? It would have to be close to the same size but if it where bigger it wouldn't fit?

Are those purpose built or just some random hardware?

Well i was just saying 5-0 because most people only ride with lock in fins on on end of their board So i guess it would look like a 50 50

I just tried sum for the first time last weekend on a flat box. I thought it was gonna be realy easy but it turned out kinda hard (I'm no good). I was using those 1.5 inch liquid force pucks though and I think they were a lil big. I'm gonna try again using the .8 inch fins that came with my mod. How big are the WM nuggs? And does anyone know if there bolt pattern happens to match up to the pre drilled holes on the mod?

Is ben making the iron again through his hardwear company?
