yetti123 is on the right road.
Default truck mounting question
i have a gravity pool 35 with C7's on it and i wanted to extend the WB a little and i was wondering if by mounting the back truck like on the lbl roadrunner(on the tail) would it help.
or would it make it worse

Default Re: truck mounting question
it's going to do weird things with the truck's turning geometry.
It will be possible to put enough wedging under it to turn it back to flat though.

were it my board I'd do it to the nose, though the wedging would still be wanted.

C7.. force? or carver?
