Comet Voodoo Doll
I have a Vendetta and am thinking of geting a Voodoo Doll as a second board to ride on shallower hills for just cruising and tight carving. We have a bike track in Newcastle that is approx 4km long, All of it a smooth downhill run. Long walk back though! I am 105kg & 190cm and OLD. Compared to most of you guys.
I have found that the Vendetta, Randal II 180 with Orange 4Pres. has some wheel bite on the inside of the wheel when I carve hard.
Any thoughts?

Definitely try for some harder bushings and maybe a lil bit of riser. Try some elim-shaped bushings + cup washers boardside to keep the wheel away form the board.

For the Vendetta or for the Doll?
The vendetta is a drop through so can't use risers?
Hop shop sold me some venom barrel bushings, but they didn't seem to fit properly. The Randall busfings have a step down in them so they fit into the smaller round key on the truck. The venom bushings were wider and woulden't sit into this sunken key.

oh.. i thought you were talking about your vendetta. I'm not sure why you have that problem. I've got all sorts of barrels in my randals.. no problems here. or maybe i'm less attentive.
Try some elims with cup washers.the cup washers really restrict the bushing and prevent bite. you prob need some really hard bushings tho. =]
