My favorite trucks. Just when you think they are only going to turn as far as the other trucks you've been riding... wham, they dive and turn 3x as hard. Awesome with a flexy board - you can push into the turns as hard as you want and somehow you always come out on top! Awesome.
Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: 2 months
What Setup are you running them on?: I'm running them on a Rayne Timeline with some Tarantula 75as, Holey Ruby Red bushings and Bones Reds
Typical Discepline?: carve and commute
How much did you pay for them?: I dunno $50
Where did you buy them?: muir skate
What are their weaknesses?: Not stable at speed & the stock bushings aren't great - get the Holeys.
What are their strengths?: Amazing carvers. Sketchy at first (they dive into turns if you push 'em), but by far the most fun trucks I've ridden. Perfect for the short carver (timeline).
What similar equipment have you ridden?: Rode some paris, bears and randals - all great, just not the same & not as awesome (unless you are going down hills at speed).

They are very fun, turny trucks. They allow for a quick, efficient pump with the right setup.
They are a staple for LDP/Slalom trucks.

One comment though, compared to my other trucks, the turning feel of these trucks are massively different. On my Dervish with Randals, when you want to turn, you just lean in that direction, and it holds the line quite well. With the Bennetts, you have to really focus on the truck to get the full potential out of the turn. And when it does turn, it turns ALOT.

This may sound fine, but this difference in feel makes a big change in the ease of turn. While the Bennetts technically have a much tighter turn radius, I can take a tighter turn with my Dervish, due to the simplicity of just leaning to turn.
