you pussies dont need speed truks to go fast. bitches in the 70s bombed on plain old bennetts with no worries

[doc brown]

Yeah at raging speeds of 30mph

Not to mention that the old plastic bennett baseplates could't even handle normal riding. I love the old bennetts, I love the new bennetts, and I want to see what they can do for speed trucks as well. I can only imagine what bennett could with a reverse kingpin setup.

where can we get em?

[Looptail]

There are plenty of other boards on my "Buy" list, but I'd really like one of these.
But I hope the details are right and it's actually rideable and not just a $150 wall-hanger.

But they're drilled new-school? So older trucks won't fit?
FFS!

Any concave etc?
Maple?
Where are the decks pressed?
Are the logos screen-printed? Or just some cheap sticker or heat-transfer?

Sorry to be a PITA, but stuff matters.

When you look around at some of the great quality old-school boards being made by Santa Monica Airlines etc. and then the shoddy "lookalikes" put out by other companies..... so has the skateboard industry always been.

Just trying to get a feel for where these are pitched.

[Pleinair]

The wheels have glitter embedded inside the urethane.
You have to see them in person to fully grasp how cool they really are.
They seem to ride extremely fast, I've been riding them for a while,
I have red 78a 62mm in red and I swear they roll faster with less reistance
than the bottle green 78a...
I will be buying sets of these by the dozens...

Glitter = Faster

QUICK, EVERYONE PUT GLITTER ON YOUR SPEEDBOARDS!

PS: What color glitter is better for sliding?

...er... exactly!

No, don't get me started. I'll leave it there.
I'm grateful for their re-issued tru(c)ks. I guess that should be enough excitement for one lifetime. 8)
Especially at my age.

Good info - Thank you!

No complaints from me;
Glad to see Bennett have done the right thing with these boards.
Damn, that's me $159 poorer, then

Gotta be baddass to rock the glitter.

Sliding? I wouldn't think so.

[Irrationalist]

So where do we get the limited edition alligators? I never saw that answered.

[frankie18]

where do we getz itz!?!

I was told: On the complete boards only (Buddy Carr at Tail Tap/ Bennett).

... but they seem to have produced a lot of new colors, not all of which go well with the deck colors, so...

[Irrationalist]

Well my buddy and I wanted some of the new translucent colors. This is mainly because there isn't exactly a plethora of clear colors on longboarding wheels.

[Kataplexy]

I'm tempted by the complete but I need some glittery gold 'gators at the very least.

where where where?? Seems like no one knows but I'm still asking!
