    Default pumping uphill?

    is there any way to pump uphill much more easier?...
    I use my skateboard with a skateboard trucks and skateboard wheel
    I pump using the twisting technique ,weighting and un-weighting is hard because I always slip off the board sometimes....

    can anyone give me some truck that good for pumping for free? sorry for being a noob its because i live in egypt and I dont have any credit card or even Paypal because Egypt is not in the list for country

    It's black, almost new, I'll let you have it for $24+shipping? Or trade it for some 180mm randal bp compatible hangers.

    6.o is equal to a randal 150. It's big for a bennet, but not that big in the scale of things. Idk, money order? I'd have to figure out shipping too...

    If you do want a 4.3, look at www.ghotilongboards.com. They take money orders. Email them or something.

    its not just a faster pump. its throwing your weight more powerfully into the pumps.

    Did you email Ghoti? They'll sell you one if you use a money order. It's just basically a check, so you don't need a credit card.

    At the bottom there's a place to list the parts you want.
    If that's not working for you, email them.

    Also, what deck are you using for pumping?

    Fun. Are you putting your front foot almost on top of the front truck? Are you throwing your back leg into the mix of things?
