with the holey's probably not stock for bombin hills but it should be prime for the rest of your list and at a nice deal too! Luckily stores like longboardskater.com stock holey bushings so you can have some options

looks like a sweet first board

the board is perfect. check out randall or paris 50 degree trucks, and compare them to the holey trucks that come with your board. holeys just turn more, no biggie. as for bushings i'd recommend Abec 11 reflex bushings

Thanks for the info.

I just checked and im buying this second hand and the trucks are Exkate Torsion Trucks not the holey ones.

I'm just concerned about the size and tail. Im a noob within longboarding but just thought a different tail would have been better?

Haha sorry. So this board is perfect for what I want?

I think I will buy it after hearing about the trucks it has!

Thanks!

ah yes the bushings you should look at are in the holey brand, it will fit that set up nicely and the reason we are so concerned about the trucks is that they have a 60* angle which means a very very very sharp turn.

LongboardSkater.com: Holey Longboard Skateboard Bushings

There's are the bushings made for that truck set, although many others will fit, these work nicely with holey trucks (obviously). If you'll tell us height weight and relatively how good your balance is we can tell you exactly which bushings to get for what you want to do

Thanks a lot. Thats great

Although, the trucks are different and are the wheels.

Check out my previous post and please tell me what you think

Thanks.
