[whirlwinder]

hey I've been looking around to answer my question, but havn't had any luck. what's the difference between conical bushings and barrel bushings, and what's better for doing hard thrashy carves? I've been thinking of using double venom barrels

[JY Jelly]

Cones are more carvy and barrels are more stable, it has to do with the shape of the bushings.

And the bushings and your weight

Planning to upgrade the wheels to otangs in heat, or 85mm Seismic Speed Vents

Im currently in the process of ordering a custom carving board from LBL. Its going to be sorta low... anyway specs:

Custom Board/Shape/Graphics
Grizzly 852 Trucks
Bones Redz( or SS6)
Abec 11 90mm 78a (might be bigger, will use when i dont feel like being low and i want a bit more grip), Orangatang 75mm In Heat ( will use for being low, extreme sliding and carving)

Landyachtz 2009 Chief
Paris 180 Black on Silver Trucks
Khiro Blue Insert 85a bushings

Rides really well, I like it a lot. Although there is just a tiny bit too little of a space to cross step.

85mm Vents? I'd love to see that.

[JY Jelly]

Me too, you might want to stick to 70-75mm wheels for a topmount.

And some shop abec 7 bearings and some spacers

It seems to ride very well though, a great cruiser and carver. She's got some speed too.
