Sounds like you're setup pretty good though.

Find somewhere with immaculate surface like fresh hot-mix in a new estate or even netball courts and you will really appreciate flatland riding. Rough surface slalom sucks.

Premium Member Comment by Adam on February 27, 2012 at 20:49: Wow. Felt gumby at first but when I got on a slight down slope it just flew. Need a toe stop but I am grinning. Any advice on the set up would be sweet. Oh back truck is dark orange reflex board side and great venom road side I forgot this morning.

Premium Member Comment by Adam on February 27, 2012 at 7:44: Ok so first ride on the disco biscuit today Bennett's two yellow reflex barrels and a bear washer on front randal 42 wedged up7 degrees at the back two dark orange reflex barrels. Will let you all know. Feels super loose and turny. 21.5 wb setting. Wiggle n PUMP!!!!!

Premium Member Comment by Fitz on February 22, 2012 at 20:56: I have foam double wedges available again. Same angle as 2 wedge blocks but thinner at pointy end. Weigh next to nothing. Very strong in compression.

$5 each limited supply. Write on my page anyone interested.

Premium Member Comment by Fitz on February 22, 2012 at 20:52: Dude,

you'll be pushing shit uphill with a pointy stick using those trucks with just a bush change. Those trucks are made for park and street skate riders.

RTS/RTX are a good entry level but still need 2x wedge front 2x dewedge back as per the randal wedging guide

They can be had for cheap. It seems the local price has crept up alot since the last time I checked even though our dollar is high (go figure?). Shop around or even better buy em 2nd hand. I'm sure someone will be looking to offload in the process of upgrading.

A bush change will also be needed as the tracker stock bushes are completely dead.

Premium Member Comment by Adam on February 22, 2012 at 20:32: Dude find ash donaldson on here he offered me a set of slalom trucks to buy off him for 50 RTS RTX combo, trackers. they are the 106 hangers they would be 100 times as good at those. they have a specific angle for the front and the back truck, specially for slalom.
