What about this setup?

Hi!
I'm new to slalom and Im trying to put together a skate good for slalom but also for a little downhill.
I'm not into competitions just want a smooth ride with a good pumping ability good speed n stability , and only sometimes see how good i can do with the cones!
Here is the setup I've been thinking about:
Deck:

Trucks:
Not sure between these two ones:
Randal R-II 150mm http://www.randal.com/trucks_150.html
Randal R-II 125mm http://www.randal.com/trucks_125.html
I thought that the 125mm may be too small when I get higher speeds. But not sure about it.
Wheels:
RETRO ZIGZAGS LIME (80a)
Bearings:
The best ones my money can afford after I buy all the rest!
Well! Knowing that all i want is to go up and down the streets as smooth as possible doing a little slalom with a good pumping ability and some times at a higher speed... Is this setup good?! Should I change something? Why?
Thanks!
