Les at Concrete Lines at Tweed Heads is really helpful. He even offers to put your trucks and wheels on his new decks to try out .

Look right for their advert..------------------------------------------------------>

I go to Hopkins for the smaller stuff like bushings, slide pucks etc
But if you really want to save money and choose from a larger variety, motionboardshop.com is the place to go or daddiesboardshop.com and the shops in the USA are stocked up most of the time and barely run out of stock.

i truly agree to that, i usually buy small stuff aswell from hopkin and then when i need a new setup or deck ill always order from Daddies or some other US store, anyway the aus dollar is $1.10 so why wouldnt u buy shit from the US haha

Buy Australian guys, they sponsor your events, riders, ASRA and your community. If it wasn't for these Australian shops there wouldn't be much going on. International shops may be cheaper, but it's not always about the price

They don't really. Extremely cheap quality bearings. I had 4 sets, one ceramic and 3 abec 9s. Bearings don't come in abec 9 and every set i had at least 2 of the bearings rattled. One of them also broke after an early grab

90% it is the about the price. I support them, but as Daniel said why not buy from the US with the Aussie dollar being so strong? But I do understand where you are coming from.
