to start a new thread go to the forum you want to post in and at the top of the page there is a link that says "new thread" if you follow that link you can start a new thread..
and if you are asking that kind of question about smokies, you honestly don't need them. it says that you have grizzlies in your sig and those will work fine for both freeriding and dh

I have a skateboard (shortboard) skate tool , can it be used for a longboard too?

and also, I know this is probablly evreywhere on this forum but for a pintail whith a wheelbase inbetween 32-37 - i want it for crusing and carving should i go with a 150 mm hanger or 180?

the skate tool should work as long as it has 1/2 inch a 3/8 inch and a 9/16 inch fitting and for the truck width its rider preference id go with 180s
