Premium Member Comment by Fitz on January 16, 2013 at 16:19: Oops. I meant Bennett front Randal back.
I can hook you up with everything but the deck if you like.
I have a complete setup ready to roll. Trucks used once. Wheels and bearing never used.

Comment by Lucas on January 16, 2013 at 16:05: hey fitz would u say bennet on front. or randal front and back ? Also were would u recommend buying from ? i was looking at sk8kings and they seem to have a lot of slalom gear

Premium Member Comment by Fitz on January 16, 2013 at 15:38: out of those options I reckon Bennett front seismic rear.
However randal 125 with a wedged 35* plate is my choice for beginners.

Comment by Lucas on January 16, 2013 at 14:57: hey guys looking into getting my first slalom deck for a while i have been researching setups and noticing how importnat the trucks so i was wondering wich of these would be the best combo
-Tracker RTX/S
-Bennett front, RTS rear
-Indy front, Seismic rear
-Bennett front, Seismic rear
-Indy front, Indy rear
-Bennett front, Indy rear

Comment by Ben freifeld on January 6, 2013 at 21:00: Thanks Dave and Fitz, Im currently riding a sk8kings mini shredder, because I love a shorter wheelbase for any type of slalom. Later I might use it as a template for a custom foam-core I guess?

Premium Member Comment by Conrad To on January 6, 2013 at 19:44: I have a brand new set of tracker rts/rtx for 50$ if anyones interested, also have heaps of bushings and angled wedges

Premium Member Comment by Dave M on December 29, 2012 at 7:24: Rosco and Paul have Geckos in Canberra. Realy good decks. Like Fitz said they are a bit narrow in the arse for my likeing. My last purchase was a Daddow foam core. Realy good quality also and Aussie Made. Get on one!

Premium Member Comment by Fitz on December 28, 2012 at 16:34: Gecko are the highest quality made decks (chime in now Donald to spew venom). Unfortunately their range lacks because of the expensive production technique they use. The decks are closed moulded and completely sealed. No sharp edges from machining. You really have to see and hold one to believe it.
I had to sell mine shortly after buying because it was to small for my wider stance and large feet. Very regrettable sale but too expensive to just hang on the wall.

Comment by Ben freifeld on December 28, 2012 at 15:38: Anyone know about Gecko decks?

The SLE only weights 600 grams! plus the bolt holes are nylon tubes in-bedded in the carbon.

sounds good...?
