paris 180's, bear 180's, randal 180's - any of those are a good all round truck.
i'd go for a smaller wheel like the Otang Purple 4Prez. good for learning to slide on and grippy enough for DH.
haha yeah you will be fine mate, of course you can go on mine whenever, i was reading your post about boards and how it turned to going for a sesh with some people around adelaide, im keen
yeah dude, cant waaaiiit
i hope the board comes tomorrow
trying not to get my hopes up
when you getting new loaded gloves so i can take yours from you ;) haha
Not really doing the tune up kits anymore. The bushings looked interesting, but a lot of them not practical. You should let me or robbo put together a hopshop tune up kit. How much do you want to spend? What do you need - kingpin, bushings, washers? what sort of skating - carve, cruise, downhill?
not sure bro ive been out of the shop for nearly two weeks, ive fucked my ankle and wont be working for a few weeks, best bet to get in touch with robbo and see whats goin down
right now im riding nothing but before i fucked my ankle i was riding a 2009 Avenger with Kooky 180s but now im going to be riding Kahalanis when i can skate again. and o-tangs of course
depends on what u call DH... ive got a deelite and ive taken it down hills real fast and it was sick. ive never raced on it though coz personally its too big for me, speed boards i like short wheelbase top mounts. but thats just me. otherwise its rad, i learned to do really fast standup slides and 180s on that board, it was my go-to board for free riding at the time. as far as a board is concerned for the purpose of going down hills at high speeds i would have to say that board is an excellent choice and you should definitely try it out one day
its capable of whatever you can think of. its just a skateboard its all about how you ride it. keep it cheap, put some bears or randals or something on it and dont waste your money on flashy gear, you will have more fun slashing about on cheap shit.
yah i'm still in cairns until the 6th! I'm near brinsmead if that means anything to you... some guy told me the gillies or something would be good but the road is a little shitty, theres some nice steep roads near me at a new housing establishment called 'the peak'. It's so hot! What day are u free/ where do u want to skate?? :)
hey man sorry for the lng gaps between replys i dont have interwebs, my rents arent keen on me doing nything but im down, whatever u want to do, send me a text we can hook up sometime 0421286377 i brought my isis with me, maybe we should hitup some car parks in the city or something whatever, im pretty busy going diving and shit but it would be sick to go for a skate!
