    Does the humu need the extra stuff like the clear grip and the wheel wells or is it fine without them? And whats your setup on the humu?

    Wheel wells definitely help. I only have the spray on grip that it comes with but it is wearing really thin so clear griptape is a good idea.

    My setup is 24 humu - midtracks - tunnel rocks

    My favorite mini is my 24" arcane mini.. It's set up with bennetts/zigzags. Though, you would have to find someone willing to part with theirs. I had a second one, but I traded it away. That one was set up with trackers/alligators.
    I need a new idea for a sig.

    Im a bit confused. Why'd you mention that wheels wells would help, if you dont have them and dont have problems with wheel bite?

    The Edge... There is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over.
    The others- the living- are those who pushed their luck as far as they felt they could handle it, and then pulled back, or slowed down..bowed down. But the edge is still out there.

    I love my hybrid mini setup. It is currently my only setup but it's a great all arounder. It turns and pumps like crazy, and goes off AND back onto curbs, Just wish it were a bit faster, but wheels are a pretty easy thing to change.

    I built this one myself, pretty easy, no wheelbite and rolls sweet. It's my first mini, so up until now, its my favorite:

    Rayne for speed, Loaded for cruising and Hosoi for all the rest.
