    I have considered dewedging the front, but haven't tried it yet. Still have yet to get it setup exactly how I want it.

    yea i want to get a wedge kit or 42* baseplates and mess around with those cause it seems like with the longer wheelbase of the chinook i could use a tiny bit more turning


    so no wheelbite with the crails and 77mm speedvents combo??
    do crails have adjustable caster to them?


    i just wish i had more money so i could dial in my chinook!

    No wheelbite at all. I was thinking about 83mm flys. The way mine is setup is to go straight. It doesn't turn well at all (90* turns at high speed are OK, but anything more is risky). BTW, No adjustable caster.

    damn not turny with 45* plates?
    yea mine is super straight-line stable
    but the main reason why i want more turn is because it is really hard to get it to turn fast enough to pull a coleman; burnt shoe rubber is only going to go so far.
    then again, Otangs have tons-o-grip


    in conclusion.. i need more time and money to dial my deck in



    so on another topic..

    since i have a dropped deck(with rake)
    i want to get a top-mount and put my current DH truck setup with some smaller wheels on it

    any topmount race deck suggestions??
    (somewhere in the $100-$200 range)

    Get an aluminum R-bros topmount! It's lighter than (most) wood decks, it's indestructable, and the concave is perfect, for me at least. Many others swear by the concave too. It's really a great board. It's only about 150 shipped too.

    but w/e.. i dont have the setup to really judge
    35 50 kills the turning up front too much, I run 42/50 Bears on it and I love it, very stable with loose trucks. (Front truck flipped, back un-flipped).
