Very good trucks, only for big boards in my opinion though. For smaller boards they are just insanely twitchy, but they'll bring a big board to life.

Equipment Reviews

How long have you ridden them?: 1 year
What Setup are you running them on?: Eastbilt 60"
Typical Discepline?: Cruise, Carve, Walk
What are their weaknesses?: Very unstable. Bring your cajones if you try to bomb on these.
What are their strengths?: Turn big boards from tanks into nice and agile soul carvers. Put them on my Eastbilt 60" and the thing became a joy to ride. Never found myself saying "oh crap" every time i came to a tight turn.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Nothing

if you have Revenge set up as both front and back truck take your time gettin used to the ride, they react to the smallest of movements so its a biut of a squirlly ride. but o man its incredible. i recommend a revenge in front with a randal in back.

Equipment Reviews

How long have you ridden them?: about a year
What Setup are you running them on?: currently got one on the front of a gravity 42 mini carve with a randal 150 in back. insane set up!!! stable n pumpable as hell. with both sets of trucks, wutever board u have is meant only for cruising...n e one that complains about them losing stability at high speeds didnjt research them enough, these are meant strictly for carving!!
Typical Discepline?: carving
How much did you pay for them?: cant remember
Where did you buy them?: it was a gift
What are their weaknesses?: cheap materials that wearr down a bit, but its not that bad. ive heard that instead of using recycled aluminum Revenge is going to use better materials that wont grind down or crack as easily.
What are their strengths?: best serious carver around, pull the tightest turns in the smallest area.
Would you recommend them?: Yes

If you can ride new school holes, get the Paris, they are turnier, and more stable. If your old school, get Randals with abishing replacement kit. These are innovative, but they still suck.

Typical Discepline?: Ditch, cruising, bombing
How much did you pay for them?: 50
Where did you buy them?: Daddies Board Shop
What are their weaknesses?: They lock too quickly, they are way too tall, they are not as turny as Paris can get, they are hella unstable after 30, and they CANNOT Be worked on. And they scrape hard when you drag them.
What are their strengths?: They turn, kinda, and look pretty.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Randal 180
Paris 180
Bear 852
