all barrels (khiro). white/orange or white/white front blue/blue or blue/red back. Bring it in to the shop dude.
My new slalom deck is running orange bitch front black barral back
If you're 65kg and running an RTX on the front, I'd definitely recommend about 15 deg of wedge and two white Khiro barrels for that front truck, unless it's a fast and steep hill. Softer bushings make the course easy, and will be stable enough for slalom speeds.
Hey Toby if you bring some hard downhill type bushings to Allawah I'll gladly trade for some white, orange or blue khiros. I need some harder bushings for my rear slalom truck anyway.
sorry mate i managed to get my hands on one white barrel which i discovered was all i was missing
thanks for all your help robbo

but what about some for hybrid slalom?
i have these hard black cones that came with the board
the trucks are LOC kinda standard skaterfag ones

Same principle - wedge the front, dewedge the back, put SOFT bushings (like Khiro whites) in the front and much harder ones in the back.
cheers
but with the SOFT bushings, would that still be suitable for some mild hill bombing?
