    These are some good lookin' trucks, I've seen them when anodized a light blue and it's pretty darn sexy. they ride REAL nice as well, at low speeds they turn more than a Magun, but less than a Kaha. I would say that right now, they are best described as a Magunaha. Think a Kahalani truck with a Magun bushing cup that restricts the turn so that it won't get wheelbite (that might or might not have been an experiment that these guys have done )

    edit: and this is just a discussion guys, i'm not arguing with him, and it pertains to the trucks so it stayed here. so dont get your panties in a bunch.
    you're retarded, end of discussion.

    trust me, i'd love to, but given my current situation, its a little hard. some of these guys need to read that first part a few more times it seems like...

    at least this "retard" (as you so eloquently put it divebomber) is at least trying to figure out how these trucks would ride instead of "I'LL TEST 'EM!".

    not to jack this thread but...
    WTF does not having hills mean that you dont know trucks.?
    i live in the flatest state ever,
    so that means i dont know about trucks?
    since i cant go 50mph in my state,
    that means i cant be slightly knowlegeable about trucks?!

    I will say this. Houston is flat. Texas, as a whole, is not.
    I can see where d-dub is coming from though his statement is a little too generalized. It takes riding a truck to know how it feels and it looks like it'll be some time before anyone is riding a final version of these. Also, while the geometry may be "close" to a randal (and I disagree with that statement) there are other things about this truck, from what I'm told, that'll make it better than a "cnc randal" would be.
    Design considerations... "FTW".

    God I miss Schlitterbahn, and kalaches... and nice weather.

    look at all you texans. you guys crack me up. i said barely any hills, not NO hills. there's a difference in going 50 on a straight and going 50 into a hairpin. just thought i'd throw that out there. there's more to testing a truck than just going fast (and i'm not implying anything about these trucks).

    never said these trucks were shitty so stop tryin to back up your boy/fellow texan. like i said before, i was just thinking out loud when i said basically like a cnc randal. after finally getting a little more to work with, i see now that there are some differences. get over it.

    wanna talk about mindless#### douchebags, come to colorado and skate with me rather than trying to look tough on the internet, then we'll see whose a douche. you guys make me soooo scared.

    anyway, back to the trucks...is it safe to assume that i was correct in the reason why the front and back have different casters mr. chocolatetrucks.
