Well I have some money now and I'm looking to buy some radikals. I'd be interested in both some talons for dh and a front truck from my slalom board. Let me know if you have either.

Nick,
Keith had PLENTY of hardware at the Dixie Cup. Go to the Radikal forum and use the ordering topic for contact information.
Now, unless something has changed in two weeks, his only limitation is bushings. You may end up having to go with Khiros or some other brand if you want a soft setup.

Nick's got more bushings than god, here's where I got most of mine from. :P
Hey Nick you get some new trucks and I want you to put the heat on Mike and Mario. New England's gonna have another wave of fast young Ams soon.

Usually an Ick with Rads and Splits. He favors Seismics but will call on his repertoire of Manxs in a pinch.
(Ask a silly question and you get a silly answer.)

Yea I sent keith an email, but like always, I am cheap and if I could get something cheaper used I probably would.
Also Karl are you gonna be up for thanksgiving or xmas this year?

I'll be back for a month from the middle of December through Jan. Snowboard Season should be good.
BTW I just got one of the new back trucks from keith and they amazing. Great upgrade for Tight Slalom from the splitfire, which is also still a really good performing truck.
I'm not extremely religious but I imagine God would ride a Turner summer ski with PVDs and Stims. hehe
Rads

Nick, have you asked Adam S. if he's got some?
Just a thought...

Hmm.. The Turner and PVD's I concur..but Stims fitting into the PVD's would be an immaculate transformation.

Mr. Gale, I'm the one who fits Stims to Radikals, and I showed Karl just how to do this.
Recall, if you will, the inherent value of Stims before my 1998 posts on NCDSA...
Yup, shoulda shut up then, But we wouldn't have JimZ's or Fat Radikal bushings to play with now, would we? So that's one Cat out-of-the-bag I'm glad got out.
Damn, I need a better 'royalties' lawyer! Then I might even get repayed for showing Burton heel-straps on Backhills... Nahh.

God rides the hoverboard from back to the future.

No, Adam, not McBride's ride, but the "Silver Surfer's" next-in-development-prototype deck!!

You are correct Eric, We were, however talking about PVD's tho! Large rectangular/ bushings /with no king pin hole would be difficult to fashion from a Stim.
Rub eyes, read...

Yeah, Dave, I 'Oopsed' that.. 2 AM replies without coffee, I misread stuff.
PVD bushings were pretty good, I thought. Maybe sacrificing big 3DM or ABEC 11 wheels into diced cubes would do the trick?

Like PSR said...I'd try Adam S. (Radikal sponsored).
I picked up a pair of the new rear Dragon Wings at the Worlds and like them for TS and tighter HY so far. Not as smooth as my Splitfires but quicker.
Hope you are having a good fall season Nick...come on up with Karl, or even without, and go snowboarding...the season has a real good start so far, compared to last year.
