problems with ventures...

[miguelsk8]

I have bought a pair of ventures about a year ago and now the axe is sliping... I'm tired of hiting the axe in the floor to the wheels start to spin again... now i want to buy a new pair of trucks but i don't know what!!! (i like my ventures but i'm afraid of try another ones) I'm between indys, thunders and destructos...

i'm portuguese... we don't have ACE selling here... I've heard that the base of thunder is too short and thats bad to do nose and tailslides! -.-

I have them, those with hollow kingpin. I have to say, best trucks I have ever had. I have the 147 tho, I dont know what size do you want.

I use to skate 7.75/7.8 decks, my ventures are the 5.0 low... what size is more close to ventures?

[Filip]

145s are probably the same, I think.

[InternetDaddy]

yeah get the 145's. They make a low too, if that's your thing. The short baseplate doesn't affect nose/tailslides in my opinion, it just means you might get more flatspots, if anything.

[ScreamingHand]

Theyve always had axel slip but that never bothered me.  it was the kingpins that kept breaking

If your concerned about truck size, bringing your old trucks with you to the skate shop isn't a bad idea

I can never eyeball it right, or remember the size I get
