I have that same twin tail slick real and have been skating it for over a year. Got it set on some thunder 149 hollow lights with the orange aftermarket thunder bushings and some f4 99a classics. Idk what it is about this setup but it's magical. It's the most naturally comfortable skateboard I've owned so far. Whenever I have to retire it I'm gonna be bummed.
