    Each one of those extra components costs more than what you claim.

      The fact that you composed a sentence is absolutely amazing. I'm so proud that you can spell. Let's just work on keeping your opinion to yourself, cause nobody likes a negative Nancy. I hope you enjoy your day my guy, but when your a douche, you're a douche.

    I still love my tech decks I use professional ones ATM with foam grip but want to start learning how to make my trucks better more responsive and less prone to breaking. What bushings are the best and the pro trucks are slimmer than tech decks so having a hard time when the trucks won't tighten anymore . Awesome vid gripson

    I agree with everything in this. Its possible to make get a great feel for very cheap this way. I would even say the locknuts arent really needed since with these trucks and nuts you can tighten them all the way down and hard and for me they pretty much dont come off since there is enough space to get them really tight in there. the locknuts can help tho for sure. Another thing I had fun doing is just sanding the board down a little bit, I find 100mm long is just too long and pointy for my taste, I shaved off 1 or 2mm from each end to make it more around 96-97mm with more rounded tail and nose. It works great. I also shaped the ends of the hangers and polished the trucks a bit for a nice shiny finish.
