ramon:the board in question is similar to a rocka,you know the angles in those boards involved.
the baseplates are protos too,by the way...
the industrial designer?
the same guy who invented the bmw carver trucks,is that sufficient enough?
price?
chaeper than rads.
you want one?
shoot me a pm

rear truck:0-45° in 3° degree steps adjustable
kingpin 10mm radial bearing
pivot 8mm radial bearing stainless steel pivot
hanger width 100mm stackable to 116 mm maximum
the truck in the pics is a proto-so don't get intimidated by the looks.the final version will come out this week and will be posted after it's done
you can expect the same features from the front truck.

Allright.
Finally something new. I will be happy to try them out one day.
It looks like a combination of all special slalom trucks on the market
A little Airflow, a little Radikal, a little PVD......................

Ramon. The Airflow Trucks doesn´t look nicer. This is one of the first ten ever made trucks. Frank and our crew will change a few things and hey do want a nice truck or a truck that really works.

I agree.. who care what they look like. I'm just excited about a new truck is coming on the market that a skater with a limited budget (like myself) might be able to afford. You're not suppose look at a gift horse in the mouth anyway. I am anxious to hear the reports about these trucks after the Brixlegg contest.

Eddy. You can take nearly every Bushing. I only skate Bones Hardcore Bushings in hard (back) because they have the best Rebound. In my front truck I have a big blue and a big white Khiro Bushing in.
The Trucks will be sold with Khiro or Gtruck Bushings.

Martin, I know that Christoph Baumann had tried a splitfire as front truck.
After he got his first GoG his choice was clear....
enjoy the ride!

I wont go into the details deeply, but I have switched to all front GOG's except for my superg (36inch with a 24.5inch wheelbase) I still like the Split better for superfast, big lines
Rear...I have 1 GOG rear on my main hybrid...and plan on getting one on my supertight sled as well....
I am running a bearinged rtx stlye for tight and a split pro on the rear of my other hybrid...
my GS is an rtx based split and the super g has the Dragonslayer style splits front and rear...
The GOG is an awesome truck..highly reccomended if you can afford to ride them... I have a feeling they will be atop many a podium this season in all classes around the world

I have been moving my GOG rear truck back and forth on my Gunner. Came to the conclussion that I only need one angled wedge riser and maybe a smaller one. The back truck is freaking amazing. Makes pumping so much easier. This is too much fun. Your Amigo Eddy Texas Outlaws/Pavel Flo
