They're up now

If your sketchy at speeds over 50k maybee skip this years newtons and get practicing until your comfy at higher speed. Stability is a lot in your head. Get worried bombing a hill and you wobble - if you dont care about falling you will be rock solid.

50k's is easy over 70 it u start to really concentrate

Yeah, but Josh was just ripping, over taking me like a mad man!

But it doesn't have turns, I start getting worried when I have to take turns at speeds over about 70 or so for heelside and probably 50 or more for toeside (much better with them now, but I'm liking the idea of newtons being heelside around forest elbow)

 

I was running caliber 44's with purple and green barrels, tightened till there was no slop. Most people find it too loose.

made a list of wat i need to buy for newtons-

Leathers

bushings

leather race gloves

probably another set of inheats

ceramic bearings

and i need to save for the entry fee...damn thats alot of money i need 

You want a fresh set of wheels.  Inheats may or may not be the best.  For example, do you want to footbrake and grip the corner like K-rimes, do you want to carve like Jacko and grip the corner, or do you want to pre-drift and stick the corner?

Centrax do well for those who footbrake the track because you can take the elbow at a higher speed, not sure what you were riding Jacko, but he was making some pretty sweet hard carves, looked like he was going to make the final with his style!

probs carve the speed off not that great at foot breaking ill just air brake and carve for my life haha

reading this makes me worried, newtons has hurt a lot of top riders, let alone unconfident ones...

im confident in my riding ability if i crash and burn ill get back up and keep doin it till i get it right

does a tree count at 60k's?
