For TS I really wish I had the extra cash for a radikal because it makes a huge difference, but I'm 19, in college. I could buy a new set of radikals witht the money I spend every time I buy books!
So with the help of lots of wedges I got an RTX with a spacer under the pivot.

I had a problem with this board at first that the nose is too narrow. I was going to use a traditional foot stop but that wouldn't let me make subtle changes in my foot placement. So I put a strip of foam wedging over then front truck. It keeps my foot in place and gives me an extra edge for my foot to grip.
I love the tail of the board, an offset truck and your golden.
I went to test out the board on the tightest cones I've run in a very long time. four and half foot to six foot gates. Check out the video http://www.slalomspot.com/video/2007/karlTS.mov I'm no Masey but these cones were tiiiight.
So I'm super stoked I got a chance to even ride this board, let alone own the thing. Opened my eyes to the skaterbuilt boards. Very nice!
