Need a good ole fashioned @owencampbell review on these bad boys
@Earl Stout III gotta try them next time we rip! What's the lean like? As turny as Paris Streets or Indys?
I have had Paris top since 2017. Just got pantheon stylus tkp trucks and love them. They are designed to use longboard bushings. Responsiveness is on point!
@Gabriel Fockler I know most casts stock cupped top/bottom (paris, calibers). I feel like flats top/bottom might be standard for precisions. As to preferred for freeride/grip, I think it's u...
Nice writeup. 100% agree that sleeve/tophat washers are trash. If trucks include those, I just throw them away and replace with flat washers. I only use flat washers that are the dia...
I took a peek at those Instagram clips you posted. First thing that I noticed, your feet are too perpendicular to the deck. For generally riding downhill, you want your feet closer t...
What are washers? Washers are the metal discs in your trucks. They exist in two places: 1. Between the nut on the kingpin and the roadside (RS) bushing. This is the roadside washer. ...
Gonna need a photo to comment more specifically, but how about you just take the weight off? I tried those new cals at that angle and they felt good.
Sidewinders.
Narrow trucks. Not like, slalom. I'm talking extra narrow, Paris TKP 109s.
Cut drop through mounts.

@Kurt Derow for real, can't wait to meet you homie!
How can I make this worse? Any tips?
Anybody tried these? How do they feel compared to something like paris street?
@jawn.theplant on insta, hmu for some downhill or the occasional ldp endever! Also @lwg.lwg to contact some of the other guys in our scene!
@Justin Chang it's the old 2010's version, with that weird directional camber on a symmetrical shape haha. The Sportster or the Nomad would definitely be the more appropriate LDP platform, but I go...
What is slop? Slop is any additional movement in the truck not from the user's input. Generally, if you can grab your trucks and feel a little play before you feel the urethane engage, your truck ...
@Zach Maxon Interesting about the Maestro setup! Used to love bustin (was my first board). Is it the current T-core design or the old 2010s design? I also relentlessly emailed them to bring back th...
Got my hands on some Divine Street Slayers recently and they're dope, also enjoying Blank Slates and some purple 4pres
@Matt Needs Wheels if you can get your hands on some of Cult's TFR thane, or some creators, they actually are that ice
Super useful writeup, most definitely. I think a note to add is that different decks require different things - ideal trucks and rail match can come down to the individual deck as well as the wheel...
Current freeride wheels on my dh board are green Krimes For my big board setup, I've been vibing with red snakes, but I've been trying to hit 180s & handsdown stuff on chill hills, so I've bee...
