I use 19.5 or 20 of wheelbase on my HS.

Try one or the other and find out what works best for you.

Cheers!

Oh sorry

I ride around 101-107 front and 110 rear. Your trucks are good for Hybrid slalom and Tight Hybrid. If it's tighter you just have to play with your wheelbase.

Cheers!

This is awesome reading for a new guy. There is so much to learn,...so much to learn.... Now I know one more reason I fell in love with this sport.... It's as much mental as physical.
