Randal Questions

**concretewave805** · 06-30-2006 06:49 PM

So i just have a quick question... how can someone tell the difference between randal 2 150s and randal 2 180s? other than measuring the width are there any visible markings/labels/numbers that i can look at?

Thanks

The hangers say either 150 or 180.

ya thanks guys i noticed that like 2 minutes after i posted... but anyways which would do best on a loaded pintail, i have talked to people who have switched in 180s instead of 150s and liked it...

Any insight is awesome...

150s, lets you stand the board on its side

the newer baseplates are drilled straight again, Id ride the Randall, why not support a US company and save some dough while doing it...
