hey ramon
i remember you eyeing those trucks in hannover already,you showed interest and i was all for it to give you some trucks,but not for free.at least the material had to be paid.
after hannover all the posts i read were not very positive regarding the truck,only criticism,sometimes i think childish and unfunded.
the you speak to frank at the worlds about the trucks and he told you that you have to ask me.
you could have done that in brixx,well you didn't.
all the trucks we had are gone.
gone to the right guys,frank followed my decisions on that. and he told you something else,which you surely remember regarding your previous comments.
being as good as you are you surely don't need those trucks.some others might...

Well, the only things I mentionned were about the width (the front truck is a bit too wide) and the industrial design, but which has the reason that in this way the production costs can be kept low. I understand that.Donald Campbell wrote:hey ramon

And yes, I've been racing very good on my Tracker/Airflow combo, so I guess there's no need for changing my setup. The only reason why I wanted to test your trucks is curiosness and the kind gesture of giving you a proper feedback.
However, I guess this is not really required.
Have fun and some good results on your super turny trucks. We understand each other.

I must agree, the "new" version seems stronger : thicker kingpin going deeper in the baseplate... I mounted it on my GS board and took it for a cruise, all I can say is that it turns in a dime, very impressive !!!
I'll give the truck an intensive training at the trocadero tuesday night and I'll give you my impressions...
thumbs up for the DDof crew!

OK, yesterday night I've set up my GOG truck on my giant slalom deck ( around 34" ).
Front : GOG + regular 86A avalon + 15° wedge
Rear : Airflow + regular 80A avalon + 10° de-wedge
We set up the pro tight slalom ( 40 cones at 6 feet and a half ) on the Trocadero slope...
As expected the truck, is REALLY turny and very safe, I couldn't imagine to do "so well" with my giant board in a tight slalom !!!!!
It's all good, the truck works well for me, so it will for you I guess !

HI Fred
Is a 15° Wedging not to much? I skate tight with maybe 3-5° and not more because the truck is turning enough. Ok I do not use a 34" for that but .....
But when it´s going good for you it´s fine. Thanks for your support. See you in May!!!

Oh no!
I'm bringing some back from Germany after the Paris race. We'll be back on June 5th if anyone wants to pre-book or prepay in Canada.
We only have so much room. If you need them sooner and want to prepay we will make every effort to get some here before we leave in May.

I have tested Henkes Pavel with GOG trucks, smooth as ...
But where can I buy the rear truck?
This is probably like cursing in the church but here it goes, GOG vs Radikal?

Well, as far as I felt comparing the two trucks, a GOG front turns with less withstand, thus smoother. If you look at the surface where the bushing sits, the GOGs are totally even whereas the Radikals how a carved bushing seat which affects the bushing while turning.
On a GOG truck you could even use PVD bushings - the bushing geometry doesn't really matter as long as you make it fit on the kingpin. There's nothing that disturbs the bushing from being compressed.
