are stimulaters expensive

**frenchies2two** · 09-29-2005 04:57 PM

cause i have 3 of them that i got from a skate shop

the yellow trackers

and would yellow stim in front with an indy orange on top then two bones hard cores in the back (blue)

would that be any good for slalom

Yes, I'm sure that would work.

But how does that relate to the topic of "Are stimulators expensive"?

Stims are worth what someone is willing to pay for them. People have been known to buy NOS Trackers just for the Stim's. Pairs have fetched $20 on eBay lately. It's all about supply and demand.

Yes and no.

There are some very good bushings on the market, but for some applications, I've not found anything that works as well.

how can you get other ones besides the blues from you mark? can you get them directly from tracker if youre not a buisness

**tyler87** · 09-29-2005 06:12 PM

No, you can't get them anywhere, which is why they are so expensive. They don't make em any more.

ummm score!

this skate shop had a bunch of miscalaniouse bushings and found the 3 stims for 3 bucks

I would in the front: bottom stim top hardcore

Back: orange indy bottom blue harcore top.

Reason being in slalom you want a turnier front truck (softer bushings up front) and the rear to follow the front (harder bushings). Less stearing from the back and more in the front. Point the board where you want to go and shoot around the cone so to speak. good luck.
