I have the 45 degree trucks in the front and back. These trucks are phenomenally great, when they work. I have had the problem of them not going straight. I have heavy springs on them, because i'm a big guy ;p when i ride them though, i have to lean to the right to keep them straight. I tried over and over again to re-tension the springs, but they still want to veer off. When they do work though, HUGE traction, great turning, and great stability. I honestly would never want any other trucks since i got these.

Typical Discepline?: downhill speedboarding and slalom
What are their weaknesses?: Maintainence is a pain. Balancing the spring tension is also hard.

What similar equipment have you ridden?: randals
Would you recommend them?: Yes

Use a 45 degree truck in the front and a 30 in the back, and you'll have incredible traction through turns and at high speeds.

Equipment Reviews

How long have you ridden them?: 2 months
What Setup are you running them on?: Flex 3 loaded pintail, 77mm seismic speedvents, bones swiss bearings w/spacers.
Typical Discepline?: Distance pumping for this setup
How much did you pay for them?: Theyre around $60 retail
Where did you buy them?: Straight from the man himself
What are their weaknesses?: If you don't like to maintain your board, they're not for you. You need to pay attention to the main pivot pin every few days of riding, as it's essential for the function of eliminating turning slop. The springs that are included may be too stiff for lighter riders
What are their strengths?: These trucks are the most stable straight line trucks i've ever ridden, and yet you can have a wicked tight turning raduis. They do have a bumpy ride on rough pavement, but thats actually good, as you maintain way more precise control of your steering path at high speeds, rather than the hangar bouncing all over the place. I freaking love these trucks for pumping and speed.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: no other trucks have a similar design. ive ridden randals, trackers, independents, gullwings, etc.
Would you recommend them?: Yes
