Reviews written by sk8dudek2 I love my seismics, Wednesday, 11 April 2007
Equipment Reviews How long have you ridden them?: 2 monthsWhat Setup are you running them on?: Flex 3 loaded pintail, 77mm seismic speedvents, bones swiss bearings w/spacers. Typical Discepline?: Distance pumping for this setup How much did you pay for them?: Theyre around $60 retail Where did you buy them?: Straight from the man himself What are their weaknesses?: If you don't like to maintain your board, they're not for you. You need to pay attention to the main pivot pin every few days of riding, as it's essential for the function of eliminating turning slop. The springs that are included may be too stiff for lighter riders What are their strengths?: These trucks are the most stable straight line trucks i've ever ridden, and yet you can have a wicked tight turning raduis. They do have a bumpy ride on rough pavement, but thats actually good, as you maintain way more precise control of your steering path at high speeds, rather than the hangar bouncing all over the place. I freaking love these trucks for pumping and speed. What similar equipment have you ridden?: no other trucks have a similar design. ive ridden randals, trackers, independents, gullwings, etc. Would you recommend them?: Yes A solid, easy maintainence bearing, Tuesday, 06 March 2007
Equipment Reviews How long have you ridden them?: I've been riding bones swiss for yearsWhat Setup are you running them on?: I run them in my speedboard, pumping board, and tight slalom board, along with any slide boards i ride. Typical Discepline?: Endurance longboarding How much did you pay for them?: $40/set Where did you buy them?: Modern Skate and Surf What are their weaknesses?: Shields smash very easily, use an axel with speed rings or a bearing press to install these bearings. as with any bearing, clean before lubing. What are their strengths?: Very very fast bearing if properly installed with bearing spacers and speed rings. I've never had a bearing "go bad" on me in the 6 sets im currently riding. What similar equipment have you ridden?: Bones reds are pretty solid if you dont have the extra $20 to rock swiss. Would you recommend them?: Yes << Start < Prev 1 Next > End >> Results 1 - 2 of 2
