Lush Pool Board or Faltown Slide?

[Hamkins]

Which is it to be chaps? Anyone have either of these? Which would you recommend for a dedicated slide board? What other setups would make good dedicated slide boards (must be available to the UK)?

Man for sliding you can't beat that Faltown 3.2, I really want one myself.
If I wasn't in the US I'd prolly already have one. Their complete is set up perfectly for a dedicated slide board. This one is a no brainer.

park 38 is pretty darn sick for sliding too, either would be a great slide board

[Mr. Zogs]

the only thing i could see bad about the faltown board is that with the complete it comes with the hard street g's which may slide like crazy but are skinny and more prone to flatspotting

[Matt matt]

if you like a nice wide board then go for the faltown i guess but if you like to hook your heels and toes over the rials then go for the Park.

Look at my avatar Im using a new faltown skateboard deck with tracker darts 215 and sergio wheels 99a.
That picture was the first day Ive learned to slide.
I tried to do a pendulum and it was not that smooth but I did it
on just 2 tries.After that I did 3 more pendulums 2 hands down!

After that day...I havent practicing my sliding cause I live here in Anaheim,ca where its flatland, that was from valencia,california where my girlfriend lives...I dont have a car to go there and practice..and neither
her so Im missing the sliding fun!!!

I can do:
-toeside slide but not pendulums
-heelside pendulums a lil rusty but its ok.

on the first day..since that I havent doing it.

all because of the faltown deck...all the way from UK to USA.
Im that desperate to learn the art of sliding.

Its just that Ive been busy at work lot of overtime and just cant squeeze time to sleep over my gf house and its an hour drive away.

Faltown sliding deck is the bomb I havent tried the others but
all I can say is it helps me motivate my mind to slide at a speed
which Im kinda scared of cause I know its a sliding board.

Speed is the key to perfect slides..
This board overcome my fears on speed.

Its all worth it for me..Even thou of the expensive shipping of 100$(US)!
If you guys want pics of my faltown board..Just reply.
Aight peace! Longboarding rocks!!!

you spent 100 bucks on shipping?!?!?!? geez, you should have bought a 36 inch deck here in the US(plenty to choose from) with the same trucks and wheels and you would have saved yourself some cash...

I DEMAND PICS

Is this setup kit any good? I was thinkin' I could get this then jam it on a deck I'll get separately - both the faltown and the lush slide decks look a bit lame if you ask me.

i think that set would work fine...but like zogs said, the wheels are skinnier, making them easier to flatspot...just keep those wheel spinning!

Yep, those are all perfect parts.
Unfortunatly, unlike a big ol cruiser, dedicated sliders are more about function that fashion. So good look finding something better than the Lush or Faltown

Is there anything in the States with a similar shape? I don't relaly feel like paying $100 just for shipping

[Hamkins]

Would I be better off buying the complete version of the park board, or should I get the setup kit and then the deck separately?

[theoreticalcrab]

They cost the same either way, so no real difference - not sure if Lush still have green krpyto pro's any more... (as speced in the complete set-up) So I imagine you'd get Bullets instead.

If they do - the pro's will be a tiny liddle bit smoother and tiny amount quicker, (97a pro's to 99a Bullets) and they are really wide which is good

On a side note, I'm hopfully gonna get a 40" Gravity Brad Edwards soon

[Partyboypowell]

I say why not just get it all in one go and rock ? (lush aint going to sell you a slide complete with wheels that are no good for sliding, so your sorted)

[skatardude10]

Id go with the faltown slide 3.2
