    For sliding? Rads and offsets?? Sounds like a slalom set up.

    For sliding, definately Indy's or Trackers.

    For more equipment info and tips take a look at the links below.

    Check out HC's slide site;

    And check out;

    www.faltownskateboards.com (the slide school is great)

    I use Trackers. Any low pivot style truck will be good for sliding though. Your trucks wont really make a difference unless they are really tall and are not a pivot design.

    Two wheel drive trucks rule for sliding.

    Four wheel drive is for pussy's.

    It like the US TV, you can kill maim rape mutilate etc, but you cannot say **** .

    Back to topic. Trackers or Indy's. Trackers are a bit more "surfy". ie. they turn deeper.

    Because of how quickly and deeply originals can turn, they can break any wheel on any pavement at even very slow speeds into a slide, look into S8's if you want to slide.

    Not as great at technical stuff but great for speed checks, standies, 2 hand front, 2 hand back and others

    What about crails? I am looking for trucks too and I came across crails. If not then I plan on trackers.
    I'd rather be on my board...

    crails have good axles but they're not the quickest to turn.

    no truck is "best for sliding"

    Yet another example of how stupid silverfish can be...
    Got some old bushings/stickers/whatever you want to get rid of? Want some Randall Tube Pivot cups that get rid of slop? Send me a PM.
