    Default Question about hellcat

    Alright, I just discovered a nice hill by my house and now I want to get into some MILD downhill. Nothing too intense. But, I also want to cruise around, so will the hellcat be good for both downhill and cruising? Any other board recommendations? Have a good evening, Chandler

    The hellcat will be an excellent board for that, but it mostly depends on your trucks. I have a hellcat, and with crails it's very stable but I need to loosen them up to the point of them being floppy to get any decent carving action out of them.

    Same here, i run mine with white JimZ's.

    The Hellcat is a great board.

    will the hellcat be too stiff for cruising? Thanks

    Totally, agree. The hellcat is a killer downhill board but I would check out something else for a more versatile ride.

    Hellcat = kinda heavy, sweet for downhill and not bad for cruising but it is defiantly a beast to push over long distances
