Re: which trucks should i get for sliding/dh
I don't understand what you're asking. Do you want dedicated sliding trucks, or dedicated
DH
trucks?

Re: which trucks should i get for sliding/dh
Are you looking to do technical sliding or stuff like the shitpins? If it's the latter, you'll be fine with Randals or Grizzlies.

I swear by my Randals when I'm doing
DH
. The grizzlies shouldn't be that much different.

Re: which trucks should i get for sliding/dh
you can get all your questions answered in one thread
theres really no reason to make like 6 threads for each of your questions
the search function helps too...

Apparently Venture trucks are the bomb for
DH
, wedged appropriately. Of course, you would have to run Bennett 4.3 in the back if you wanted to slide.
