Shiyuchi is on the right road.
Default My first slalom setup.

Homemade deck, two 1/4inch BB plys, stained red, with three wheel bases. Shortest WB is around 17" and the longest is 19"

28" (I think)
106mm tracker RTX/S
bones red
62mm 81a Alligators (going to get some bigger ones sometime)
Orange Khiros front (with aluminum insert), medium bones hardcores back
The biggest angled rails in the khiro rail kit and an 1/8" shock riser in front, wedged
Angled riser and second biggest angled in the rail kit in back, dewedged

I couldn't get out much, I've only ridden it once down my driveway, and it turns real smooth and isn't tippy like I expected. This is also my first slalom board ever, so I don't really have anything to reference it to.

I'm also thinking about switching out the front truck for a Bennet, or maybe the back for a seismic. But I don't know.

Opinions?
