Randal 150s Sliding?

**stanton** · 08-27-2005 01:17 AM

I was wondering if randal 150s would be fine for sliding. I don't want to buy "regular style" trucks that wouldnt be as good if i wanted to use them on a different setup later. Is there anything (bushings etc.) that could temporarily make them more suited to sliding? and would they work fine?

some one told me that trackers slide pretty well for "regular trucks" but i think its mostly the wheels that matter

Conventional trucks tend to slide much more easily than "longboard-type" trucks (Randal, Seismic, Crail, etc). Some folks prefer a wedged conventional setup to Randals, etc.

... could I dewedge my randals for sliding or would that just make them weird?

I think the randalls are designed to be ridden without wedges (the design of the trucks is set up like it was wedged.)

correct me if i'm wrong Silverfish riders.

yeah what i meant was, to put the wedge in the opposite way than normal, effectively making the randals geometry more like that of standard trucks. but maybe that only works in theory.
