    If it's already assembled, go out and ride it, and then you can tell us how it rode...

    What is it that you expect the risers to do for you?
    It just depends on the type of skating you're doing... carvin, downhill, slalom, parks. All have a different setup. Experiment bro! That's how all this stuff you're playin with came into being.... by us old farts playing around with what started as rollerskates and planks of wood. Then it just kept getting better as we tried new stuff. Some worked, some sucked, but my point is, it only takes ten or fifteen minutes of your time to swap them out and try it.

    Be bold. Be creative, never stop wondering "what if".

    Let us know what ya thought and you will have enlightened us all.

    Peace

    you know i used to nail rollerskate parts to my 2x4 and often had to carry a hammer and spare nails on sessions....you know...this guy in our street had a fence of 2x4's and over one summer they all got nicked for decks....in the end he put a chain link fence up
