These truck turn on a dime and take no power to pull out of a turn. They are also decently stable at speeds. I've take them up to 45 mph and had no wobbles. They rule. Just the ease of maintaining them sucks major ass... they are great buy them you will not regret it.

Go buy some if you like really quick turning trucks that are super stable.
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: 2 months
What Setup are you running them on?: Seismic Cameron with Orange Speed Vents, Bones Reds
Typical Discepline?: Speed/hard carving, cruising
How much did you pay for them?: 60
Where did you buy them?: Seismic
What are their weaknesses?: None so far
What are their strengths?: Really sharp turning radius - much sharper than Holeys - snappier rebound (Holeys feel sluggish, now), and excellent control. I will be testing the 180's on all of my other boards and see what happens there. It looks like I might be selling all of my Holey trucks to replace with Seismic.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: There is anything like them
Would you recommend them?: Yes

Seismic trucks for me have sadly produced more cons than pros.

If you plan on buying them be ready to baby them in terms of maintenance.
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: About two months
What Setup are you running them on?: Rayne Libido with ABEC11 Grippins.
Typical Discepline?: Pedestrian slalom, Commuting, Carving
How much did you pay for them?: $60
Where did you buy them?: Daddies longboard shop
What are their weaknesses?: First off, like the other reviewers have stated, the trucks are a hassle to clean. Lets just say that I've lost several toothbrushes to it. On top of that, placing the springs in (especially the more firm springs) is very difficult without the help of a clamp/buddy/heavy anything. Next is the dreaded rumour of the springs popping out in transition between turns. IT HAPPENS, an easy sign to tell if it is imminent is the grooves on the cap of the spring. For those who haven't ridden seismics before it is similar to a bushing magically dissapearing while riding... SCARY

Oh and one more thing, the springs are expensive to replace, and "tightening" them is fairly useless

What are their strengths?: They make good pumping trucks, the light springs give a good bounce when coming out of turns. Style points for people who have never seen a skateboard/longboard with trucks on them.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: nothing like it
Would you recommend them?: No
Was this review helpful to you? yes     no

Great for maneuvering through traffic, carving, and mild downhill (with light springs). Can change out springs for about $10.
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: About 5 months
What Setup are you running them on?: Bustin Complex 42" Deck, Seismic 45 180mm trucks, Avalon 68mm wheels, Rush Ceramic Bearings
Typical Discepline?: Cruise, Carve
How much did you pay for them?: Came on complete board
Where did you buy them?: Bustinboards.com
What are their weaknesses?: Biggest weakness is downhill. Going downhill about 20 mph had speed wobbles. I have the extra light springs (better for carving than downhill). I am going to change them to a heavier spring and try downhill again.
What are their strengths?: Awesome carve-VERY agile. Can turn on a dime. My friends are used to stiffer trucks, so they are kinda scared of them. Can move!

Would you recommend them?: Yes
