    Longboard Help.

    I'm looking for some new trucks, wheels, and bearings for my longboard.

    This is the board I currently have:

    I love the deck, but the trucks are too wobbly, and I want new wheels and bearings.

    Any suggestions?

    Finally, I thought no one else longboarded here. The decks nice but for a longboard you have shitty trucks, and wheels (not sure about the bearings since I can't see them)

    this is my current board but I use gumballs 90mm and rayne trucks.

    I suggest you get some alligator wheels, not sure about the mm and for the trucks definitely get randal.

    I was definitely thinking of getting some randall trucks. I'm not sure on the mm of the wheels I should get, and I'm looking for some fast bearings.

    I'm into carving, and speed.

    If you're into carving/going fast, most likley it will be a smooth surface. Theres these bearings they have at a local skate shop by my house, theyre around 60$ canadian in a PIG container, and they are gold. Apperantly, their really fast and great for keeping/maintaining a high speed, but if you bail and your board flips they will most likley crack.

    As for trucks, I don't know what to suggest. I'm not a longboard person, I only know about those bearings. As for the wheels, get something really big :) lol.

    I'm not sure what you prefer in wheels/trucks, but as for bearings, world industries are really nice/fast. it's what i have on mine.

    Theres different types of bearings for each brand you know. >__>

    World industries has several different types of bearings, also, REDS are some of the best bearings I've ever had. They last long, they work well, and theyre only 17.99. Billy, I suggest trying those out. :p

    if you're into intense carving then you might as well get a slalom skateboard, my brother has one. But for the bearings if you can afford them, then definitely go for the Ceramic High $200. Best on the market, but if not get some bone crushers.
