Does anyone know of a link to some Revenge footage i am trying to get a better idea for how these trucks ride? How do they slide anything like Originals?

i have revenge trucks and i love them to death, they ride really well for moderate cruising... i slide on them alot but it took a little bit of adjustment to learn how to slide them but once you get past that they slide like anything else.

I'm setting up a Subsonic Highland 42 with Revenge trucks and Pink/Reflex Gumballs. I'll let you know how it carves/slides/etc.

thanks a lot guys for your quick helpfull response's.

MHM- definitely let me know how they ride i am very interested in these turcks look like they ride like smooth originals (what i'm looking for)

does anyone know what decks are good for these trucks. i know LBL loads some of his up with them, BUT i don't use Paypal so he is pretty much out of the question, what other companies go well with Revenges? also, i read some where something about that only work well on larger decks and are just too squirly on smaller decks (smaller than 40") is this true?

http://os3distribution.com puts Revenges on ALL their boards, including there 28" mini. They definitely look like they turn tightly, but I guess they are compatible for many types of decks (long, short, wide, narrow)... I think personal preferences come more into play here.

I've copy and pasted the text here

Revenge is sweet...

If you haven't noticed already, we put Revenge trucks on all our longboards. Why? Well, cause we really like them.

Conventional skate trucks were never meant to be used on longboards. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we know that Indys are great, blah, blah, blah but they're meant for popsicle decks. I mean come on, would you put ketchup on vanilla ice cream because you "bleed" ketchup and have a big ass Heinz sticker on the back window of your Ford pickup truck? OK, maybe our boy Ky who works out in the warehouse would do that but we can pay him to do anything. So if you're going to buy a longboard, why would you screw up the performance by riding regular trucks? The turning radius with a conventional truck for a long wheelbase is ridiculous. Revenge trucks take longboards to the next level and make turning so easy it feels like you're surfing or snowboarding on land. I mean, come on, you can turn a 48" board between two cars parked in parking stalls! Es loco!

If you haven't noticed already, we've got alot of experience riding all types of terrain and our riders can attest to the Revenge performance and feel. But have we mentioned that Revenge trucks also eliminate wheel bite? Revenge's patented locking system actually prevents you from turning your board too much and biting your wheels on the board. This means whether you're cruising to class or just going to check out the surf, you can cruise with ease knowing that you're not going to stack. So check it out. Take a look at other some of the other longboards out there and you'll notice that they put wheel wells on all their boards to try to prevent wheel bite. Funny thing is, those boards still wheel bite even with the wheel wells. They know it, we know it, and you know it. That's already something like reason #57 to use Revenge trucks. So when you take look at all of our boards and notice there are no wheel wells, what you gonna say? We don't need them suckas! We got Revenge!
