photos of my slalom board:
I ride a Pavel Foam CBark deck with a GOG front truck and a rear Splitfire pro, 70mm Zig Zag wheels - two orange and two yellow, Rockin' Ron's ceramic nuclear missle bearings. The front bushing on top of the deck and the rear bent metal help me place my feet right where I want them. Also the rear piece lets me dig my foot into it for extra pressure while turning. The set up rides perfect for me right now. no more searching around for now.
The L shaped piece of metal in the rear that Ted says is for foot placement is actually a radio receiver, that pick up signals from outer space and direct into the brains of his opponents in the next lane.I have experienced this and wondered where that voice was coming from in my head that said "aw go slower, what the heck, it's just for fun, let Steve win"

Is that board fun to just kinda cruise around on like campus and stuff?
Sure but it is expensive for just cruising on campus. $250 for the deck, give or take 20 or so
