Is this a good first setup?

Landyachtz Wedge Flex Wave deck
Retro ZigZagz 70mm "red riders"/78a
Randal R-II 180mm trucks
Bones Reds bearings

would this make for a good first setup, for cruising, and occasional downhill?

prolly not too much on the downhill due to it being flexy, but it should handle itself fine.

Well, since you asked, yes. I would personally put Indy 215s on it though. (makes it lower for pushing)
If you wanna do serious DH I'd opt for a different board.

consider a drop carve from daddies or mile high skates, or maybe a superglider from either as well.

ya dude but upgrade those zig zags to big zigs so if you want you can do some ocassional bombing

sounds like a good setup, it should be alright for light downhill.

more like a cruiser.

nice set up by the way.

ive got almost the same setup (got 75a gumballs instead)
but its an amazing board for everything its actually the favorite board i own. it carves super hard, and i can hold it even with loose trucks at 35mph with no problem. and its also an amazing pumper! plus there is enough room to dance on it.
(i put a blue khiro barral on for my bottom bushing and an orange barral for the top)
PM if you have any ?'s

ok so now im thinking the wedge flex deck, indy 215's so pushing would be more comfortable with the shorter height, now what would be the best wheel for all around use? and when i said occasional downhill im not talking about very big hills
