I’m a Brazilian rider who loves downhill sliding, freeriding and speed boarding. My downhill slide board is my favorite setup. It is part of my roots, has the most style, and is what I have the most fun on. The Abec 11 Sublime Power Slides 100a are perfect for long slides. The Gullwing Pro III 155mm trucks are really secure and the Sector Nine Jeff Budro 36” is one of the best decks I have ever had. The concave is perfect. My favorite wheels for racing are the Zig Zag’s and the Big Zig’s. They are not only fast but have excellent grip. I use them with Gullwing Precision trucks and the Sector Nine Javelin board.

The board I’m riding is from my sponsor Bastl Board. It is the handcrafted “Bolero” in Flex 1. It’s incredibly lightweight, and water and shock resistant. For my dancing and freestyle tricks, it supports all movements with a subtle flex and an incredible pop. My trucks are Paris v2 with Riptide Bushings 93a. For wheels, I ride the 70mm Seismic Bootlegs in 80A with the Elixier formula that gives me a great grip on my road trips under every condition; dancing rapidly, you never b500-x-400-Rider-Profile-Jeff-Budroreak out. Slides are steezy, always under control but smooth. You can easily turn the wheels because they are centerset if you manage to waste the durable urethane. The setup together harmonizes well and also works as long-distance pushing setup. I ride every day and in Germany where the sun doesn’t always shine. I trust Tekton Bearings that are sealed so that they last a long time.”

JEFF BUDRO
When I designed the Budro 36”, I wanted to make a board that you can skate almost any terrain on. This board has what I call a late 90s shape to it. With a 17” wheelbase, it’s great for thrashing down city streets and hills but also great for skate parks. If I could only take one board on a trip around the world, this would be it. I ride on 61mm Sector 9 Shredthane Marshmallows equipped with ceramic bearings and spacers. I’m grinding on 9” Gullwing Shadows with a green Venom barrel on the bottom and a Bones medium cone on the top. This board is 36.25” long by 9.25”wide and is pressed in my personal mold.400-x-500-Rider-Profile-Jorge-Pernes

I have been riding the Lush Burner for a while now on the shortest wheelbase (23.35”). This works best for how I like to skate: fast and no paws down. The board responds better this way and I find to get more control during the slide. A short WB compromises the stability of the ride. I compensate for this with a 46° baseplate, and harder bushings. I’ve been riding the same sets of Aera for three years. I have been using Venom for a long time and am quite satisfied with the Barrels or Eliminator. Recently, I started to use only barrel bushings. I feel I can get a better lean and dive into the corners or just drift it all. I use Sabre Bearings because they fit perfectly and I find them to be very resistant and durable. This is perfect for me because I normally kill bearings quickly!

MINNA STESS
The Silly Girl/Pink Widow board is light, which is good for airs. The Theeve trucks turn easily (this is especially good for me as I am small) and the Bones wheels (Kevin Staab 60 MM) are great for skating the huge combi and Mega Ramp! My 187 Killer Pads stick well to my body and don’t slide off. My XS x GN4LW helmet has super soft padding inside and fits my head snugly.
