When combined with the JimZ bushings, they give it a really mushy, flowing feel, but they have *mondo* restance. I have em pretty tightened down on my Ladera though because of wheelbite. So I miagine if you ran them on a board with wheelwells, it would give the same surfy feel, but less restance.

As I said though, you have to cut them at the top so they will fit in the crappy bushing seat. And just to remind you....

Equipment Reviews
How long have you ridden them?: 4-5 maybe more months
What Setup are you running them on?: Evo and A Ladera Ripper tompount. 40*

***OLD GENERATION TRUCKS***

Typical Discepline?: anything really
How much did you pay for them?: I think they average for 40ish?
Where did you buy them?: stokedskateboards.com
What are their weaknesses?: The bushing seat sucks ass. the top of the hangar where the axle goes through bumps up and touches the bushing causing them to pop out of the bushing seat when riding. Shaving them down fixes this... for a while untile the bushing turns and it's touching tha hangar again. >:(
What are their strengths?: I'd have to say stablility. I've taken these to low 30's on a really small topmount with JimZ bushings and they were awesome.
What similar equipment have you ridden?: none yet.
Would you recommend them?: Undecided

People say the Evo is hard to push around, not true, since it is lowered so much, it evens out the pushing difficulty.
Longboard Review
How long have you ridden the board: about 4 months maybe longer
What is your setup like?: 40* bear Grizzlies and Retro Bigzigz
Typical Session Discipline: DH
How much did you pay?: $240
Where did you purchase it?: stokedskateboards.com
What were the strengths of the deck.: Stable as BALLS. Wobbles are litterally impossible on this board.

The board iteslf is also very stong, it's a tank.

What were the weaknesses?: if there is any weakness, I'd say turning, it is good at turning, really good at making quick turns to dodge a branch or something, but it does slide out a bit. I wedged out the back for some extra turning. I also plan to put a 50* Bear plate in back.
Similar decks you have ridden?: none yet.
Would you recommend it?: Yes
