Top Mount Paris 180s on Landyachtz Drop Speed?

**forum4yb** · 04-12-2010 08:18 AM

I was thinking about ordering a Landyachtz Drop Speed. And I really want to put some Paris 180s on it, but I'm not sure if you can top mount them on that board.

Daddies Board Shop said that you can only top mount grizzlies.
If that's the case, how do Grizzly trucks compare to Paris's?

Also, what hardware should I get to mount these trucks?

I would also like to know what kind of wheels I should get on this board for sliding, cruising, and downhill.

Correction. I want go drop through mount them.

And daddies said that only grizzlies could be drop through mounted.

AFAIK new landyachtz cutouts fit paris baseplates. An older drop speed will not, but its nothing that a few minutes of sanding won't fix. (Just finished sanding down my Kebbek's bear-only drop through cutouts/flushmounting to accept paris' last night)

Paris fits fine, no worries.

Thanks guys. I was also wondering if the Drop Speed is any good for crusing and sliding?

I want to cruise mainly. And i think im gonna learn to slide. And i want to bomb the occasional hill, but i want to do it with stability. cuz there are some mad steep hills around where i live.

I might do the odd shove or nose manny every so often too but im not really going to focus on that.
