8, cheaper and can use reg. bearings. If you are ordering from MHS get the quick(52º) and stable (40º) truck combos

I hear Randall DH are great with em. I've only had experience with the Bears. If we ever go skate, you can test em.

wait you are talking about an evo, correct?

Cool. Tons of fun so far. Got mine a few weeks ago.

Yay San Jose! I can skate most any weekend, and occasionally midweek.

I'm trying to learn and get better at pumping, so my setups are all overspecialized (carver CX's on one board and heavily wedged randalls on a Vanguard), but I don't mind just cruising and an occasional hill.

hey, I should skate with you sometime. My pumping video is old and not good, at all. But I know how to pump on a Vanguard pretty well if you need help.

That would be boss. I am able to pump it sort of, but I can tell I'm wasting energy, so I know I just need to refine it.
