Hey Mike, I know what you mean about the rail grinders giving you a hard time. There are 3 or 4 on my street that snicker every time I ride by. When I run cones out of their cul de sac I can see them watching with that "that's not cool" indifference all the while looking interested. Maybe 2006 will ...

Hey,

In a perfect world I am looking for a used Splitfire Front. But I'd be interested in hearing what you have besides a Tracker or Seismic. Depending on the price I may be in the market for two trucks.

Brian,

Let a TS board be a TS board. I run Khiro whites in front and a blue bottom with a Tracker green superball top in back. The thing turns on a dime. I am to experiment this off season with a batch of stimulators that I have coming from Geezer X.

Have fun.
