I upgraded my board to these from a set of stock Veloz (A brand that this website wont even carry) and the difference is night from day. I can't believe how nice these things turn for the price. Just buy different bushings and you'll be fine (mine ripped a little at the top).

SUPER CARVY

i have the old style from a few years back and still have the stock bushings in. OMG they are sooooooooo soft that i can almost get wheel bite on a board that is designed for 85mm wheels, with my 70mm wheels.
BEST MODS TO DO:
- shave some bar soap into the pivot cup
- turn the kingpin around so the nut is facing out
- flip the cup washers if you dont have flat ones already
- change the hanger direction often for a different ride
^^^^^^^BUY THESE^^^^^^^
HAVE FUN!!!!!!!

These a great carving truck stock. With some tweaking, and say some venom downhill barrel bushings they even make a great downhill truck. I paid a lot more for a pair of bear grizzlys and I can't say that I like them any better, maybe not as much. This I say "awesome value".

Nice truck Mean And Stable Altho It Didnt Take Long To Tear The Original Bushes, They Are Very Soft. I Recommend When Getting These Wicked Awesome Beasts That U Get The Khiro Kit Too For The Comfort U Like.

These trucks are stable at high speeds, and feel responsive, even on my longer boards. Only thing I'd say is that I like to get my trucks a little bit tight, and I had to replace my bushings. I'd say that I'm the exception in this case, but if you know you want a tighter truck, I'd recommend this one, but with some harder bushings.

Baseplate Degree?

So i know that with the hanger angles the higher the angle the more "carvy" the truck is, but what does the baseplate angle do? I noticed that this truck has both a fifty degree baseplate and a forty-two degree baseplate and am not sure what to go with.
Dan Loveland Writes - The baseplate dictates the angle of the hangar. 42 degree baseplates are more stable than 50 degree.

Hey dbs, i recently bought a complete arbor fleetwood from you guys, i really love the board, but not the revenge trucks i got with it. they speed wobble really bad down hills. now will these 180's fit my fleetwood and bigzigz good? and also what's a good bushing kit that allows you to turn, but also won't wobble?
Dan Loveland Writes - These will be far more stable than the Revenge trucks. At speed the Revenge will not handle speed. Randal 180's are great for carving and going downhill at speed. MADE IN THE USA.

Paris or Randalls

I have a vanguard and it has Paris 180 mms on it. Should I get Randall 180 mms or is it not worth the money?
Dan Loveland Writes - They ride very similar. If you want to change the ride of your board I would upgrade the bushings.

Will these trucks need longer bolts if you use a 1/2" angled riser pad with them?
Dan Loveland Writes - Yes, you will need 1.5" hardware for 1/2 inch riser.

definitely the best all-around longboard trucks. Chances are your face will fall off before you get speed-wobble, especially on a deck longer than 48 inches. Right now I have them on my home-made 60 inch cruiser, and they're perfect when they're so far apart, because they're stable enough to walk on, but they still turn. If you're not used to trucks that are loose, you will definitely need to get some harder bushings, because the ones that come with are really soft.

I bought these trucks expecting them to be like any other trucks. When I got them an put them on my board I went straight out the garage and jumped on the board. On the first turn I leaned just as hard as my old trucks an went flying into the grass. I was so happy that I could make a turn with almost no effort. These trucks are the king of all !!!!!!

I live in ohio where there are no longboard stores so you pretty much have to order all your gear online or stop by a store if you happen to be on the West coast. Daddies board shop was great.
These trucks are really stable at high speeds, but still trurn very well. I would definetly recomend these trucks.
