Yeah Thanks Mate

Killswitch looks sweat..

 

Can i ask why do you like evo's??  (not being rude)

not at all bro.

just cos the turn is super sluggish, like your on a hammock, and you cant ride it switch at all.

i like symmetrical

but as i said before, this is just personal preference, and the evo has won more races than any other board ever made...

but i guess the new style of riding today is making it less effective these days.

Sorry dude to bother you

hahaha his first downhill setup and he's getting Aeras. usually i'd say that is a bad idea as precisions are generally good for one thing, going fast. but since aeras do everything a carving truck does and everything a speed truck does, it will be a good purchase if you have the money to spare (close to $500).

i have had a loaded dervish but its just not as fast as i want it

But thanks for the help i was expecting around that..

its not the board, its the rider.

if its your first DH setup i recommend you don't spend $1000 on it. get yourself a decent deck and some cast trucks to start with. think about precisions later down the track. fact is you won't be able to tell the differences between gear like that until you have a lot of experience under your belt. do all the learning, then upgrade your gear. cos we all know how much we trash our gear when we are learning. no point trashing expensive gear, that you don't even need yet.

oh my god thank you so much

you have turned my point of veiw right around and your so right

 sorry about this again but...

what cast trucks would you recomend.  The only good cast trucks i can think of are Bears??

You have no idea how much help you have giving me...... I cant thank you enough

Comment by Michael English on December 14, 2010 at 18:58

i have found that bear trucks work best on boards with a dropdown or a dropthrough and randals are sick as hepatitis on topmounts. but that would jest be me
