how fast can you go?
i got a sector9 bob marly revalution for chrissy and can get up to 45km/h downhill and i was wondering what is the main factor for speed..... is it the board, the trucks or the bearing??? :)

its none of the above. its the rider.
The sector 9 bob marley is not designed for downhill speedboarding. its for cruising around town and surfing the street...

if the board is flexy it wont be great for dh so it helps to have a stiff board, and the trucks and wheels to matter too much its just what your comfortable with that helps you go faster

you've only been on it since Christmas... forget sliding. learn to carve, turn, and stop first. and you have a great board for all those things. If you try to learn to slide before any of that you will suck forever

That should tell you what boards,wheels etc are good for downhill, You can do anything on any board if you really pushed, I think most people here started on some kind of short board/trick deck then progressed so as jacko said, learn the basics before you get a new board.
