aha yeah this thread is the only place i can find others to talk and relate about trucks with, all or most of my friends just dont care what they ride. theyre just like, this is what i like or have been riding forever so im gonna just stick to it, no opinion on what they ride what so ever.
sorry for being that guy, but guys...after riding most of the best trucks except venture hi and aces(ive stepped on a friends board with aces though) my decision in the end even though i have mentioned it a page back or so. theeves. trust me they have improved. i have been riding my new v3ś for the last week and damn, they are good trucks. ive skated thunder 147 hi, 149, indy stage 11 139, 149, krux 4.0 talls, 5.0 talls and they all had their ups and sadly downs but theeves. they turn quick like thunders but they actually stay turning and carve deep in a circle like indys. and even though the website says 55mm tall theyre actually about a thunder 147 hi height maybe a little taller cause i guess the angle of the hangar and cause of the height you dont feel so unstably hi like indys 55mm
to wrap up what i said about theeve incase you guys want to know how they feel and ride.
-quick turn and response
-deep turn
-stable height
-somewhat light
-grinds so so but the clearance is outstanding, messed up getting into a 50 and the kingpin somehow didnt get scratched at all
-the hole placement though i cant confirm yet if its a good thing or bad thing because i feel it kinda shortens the wheel base but i like that and i noticed getting into nose and tailslides didnt easily lock into the baseplate so that might be off for some
