You may also wanna try the seismic bigvents in 79a I have then on my flushcut and they drift really nice and have grip to. it is my fab garage board.

those are all bad choices with smokies, when smokies are paired with grippy wheels it does weird things when sliding

I am ###### lovin the board! it's so predictable when drifting, I can keep my tuck through most corners and It's amazingly stable, I really like to set up and I plan on keeping it like that for awhile, I spent all my money setting it up I have no money to be tweakin with it. The gumballs were my only option because I wanted it set up for the sully challenge and they were hte only good wheels funhogz had. it sucks when you need new equiptment 2 days before a race in a town where there is no skate store really.
