Indeed. Trucks cost you around $250+?

Uhhh, not even close.

Got them used for $190. For some odd reason, that was reasonable. Either way, I will never turn down a nice thing because I don't feel I could use it to its full potential. Just use the damn thing!

Of course, I can sy that because I don't pay bills, etc...

Yep, same with my setup. I was going to buy a new car, but my parents are making me wait until I'm 18, so I really splurged on a sick new board. I'm gonna take pictures of it as soon as I get it set up, which might be a week or two, because the trucks haven't come yet.

Anyone know how to get in touch with Radikal?

Right now,

BRX
90mm Flys with Biltens
Randal DH with blue stims on bottom and Kiro red inserts on top.
the Dh hangers seem a little narrow so when I get the money I will upgrade to Luge hangers. I like wider trucks ( The DH's are stable as hell though)

dregs race
no pads
rII baseplate - luge hanger with biltins - Black randall bushings-
kryptos 85 with swiss bones

its fast, stable and still turny! i recently changed my flipped 180's for the luge hanger... i do not regret it!!! It does not make a huge difference in speed or acceleration, a nice speed position is the determinig factor, but its more stable, like a kart, and more precise in the curves.

A winning set-up on all roads!

Well, I got in touch with Laurent Golay, the shaper. His email is laurent@lgs-sk8.ch . I also think *SWEET* is friends with him, iirc, so he could probably help you get one as well!
