Steel bushings?? Were they planning to reach speeds exess of a billion miles per second or something? How could bushings be steel, whats the point of trucks of they cannot turn. Explain to me how that works please. I am dumbfounded.

I Understand the trucks importance in stability and control, but aside from areodynamics, if I were at a top of a hill and wanting to get down sooner, how would the trucks aid me?

How would trucks affect speed?

What other good runs are there? Is there a great list of qualified streets somewhere that I don't know about?

Sorry for my incompetence and ingnorance; What are speed rings. Where do they belong? On the wheels? Trucks? and what do they do(I figure they have something to do with speed). Can you not have them? Somebody please explain.

I have these kneepads and elbow pads. It seems like they are pretty good relative to the others that I've seen around but isn't there Anything i can do to make it more comfortable? When I put on my elbow pads my viens buldge from the lack of circulation. I'm pretty sure that they aren't on too tight...

ha. You are definately right about the strained muscles from pushing. Right now, i can barely lift my left leg (I ride goofy). I truly appreciate your help john.

Back on the subject of pumping, I have no idea how to pump. I mean, I don't understand how it's done. I have this idea that its slaloming but pushing your feet outwards when the nose is pointed away but I'm pretty sure I'm wrong. Can somebody please clear this up for me? Also, another thing On 2002-...
