ISSA - International Slalom Skateboarding Association

Mark,

It has been a while since we have heard from you on the subject of Radikal Trucks. Can you answer a couple of questions for us?

Question #1. Can you tell us the release date for your newest version of Radikal Trucks?

Question #2. Will there be separate back and front truck configurations and can these be purchased seperately?

Question #3. Approximate pricing?

Thanks for supporting the slalom skateboarding community with your truck offerings...

We are de-bugging them and after the GATHERING will start productiuon.

Looks like the name/password works Mark.

Can you give us a clue on the release date?

Ok guys, It appears that a small pre-release # of trucks will be available on or before the st.louis race next week. Let's see who reads this. Those who do, can contact me directly through this site. The first 15 will be served. I can't be any clearer. They will be #rd

Normal production is now in progress and in approx 4 weeks we will be set.

I`m in, or was I supposed to email ya?

Looks like Jeff Goad is on the list also. He will need all the help he can get. A Fla. hurricane is arriving next weekend and is going to blow St. Louis away.

Do private messages count?

Well It looks like Rick Stanziale is part of this group.

Thank you, I would like to be ready for "da Farm" with a set of Radikals.

Rest assured Mark, this site is well visited, you can take a look at the counters.

The lurkers are checking in every day, the statistics are amazing.

I'm in Mcree. PayPal? send a box of $$? how's it work, dude?

Mark:

I'm in for a pair. You want a check or Pay Pal?

SD

Mark, will a 30* rear be available or custom fab orderable? TK

TK, We are going to offer a 25 deg. plate also. If you want one- I'll get you one any time.

Bobby Mandarino wants it. I thing the darn thing tracks and works so good on the rear, that you can de-angle it and tighten it down and pump speed like hell AND be able to turn. I havn't run the set up yet. He had wedge pads.

McCree

The Byrd's still want in.

FYI. Ricky and Josh are team members. They are on another list.

MArk, is the 25.00 shipping for express overnight? TK

The shipping is the 3 day thing. But it includes handling. You know- hey watch out- next time I will work on the second run too!!

25.00 for priority mail. I thought those things are supposed to be light!

Kirby, you better take this to the dark side...

Tway, I'm suprised youre even up now. Must be a good cartoon on the tube. The Dark Side is a former shell of itself. Anyway Mark MCCree is a straight shooter and can take constructive criticism just fine. Were all friends right?
MArk, if you are refering to our semifinal race in the pro TS course in Maryland. I KNOW you were working hard and so was I. .5 sec is a lot of time to make up! I was sweatin it for sure.

Mark,
I didn't know about your offer when I saw you in St. Louis. If I'm not too late, I'd love to try them! (Even if I am too late, I'd love to try them, but you get my point, right?)

And here's an interesting hypothetical: If I'd been riding Radikals, would you have still beaten me by .05 seconds? Next time, you're goin' down, bruddah! :razz:

JH, I do what I have to do. I had .20 over Bobby also in the next race.

E mail me about a set of trucks. I'll take care of you.

Hey Mark, I've been trying to send emails to you at mccreearch@msn.com since Worlds. Even sent one to the other address I found on your website (mike@rei-usa.com). No responses. Either your msn account is chucking my mail in the spam bucket, or I am not welcome in your "club". I know Evans has a set so I think you are just missing my emails. Get in touch with me. I want to get hooked up. Thanks.

Mark, i weigh 150 and need to know what duro bushings to get for my Glenn g-trucks. I will be using these for TS

Hunter,
The trucks I sent you should be pretty damn good at your weight with the blue G*Truck bushings for a front truck, and the white Tracker bushing I trimmed down to fix for the rear. For starters at least.

I do have a feeling that the Radikal urethane would be even better though than even that stock blue G*Truck bushings which are better than the clear Bones Blues in rebound. I've put trimmed down Stimulator bushings in my G*Trucks and it just makes them come alive, and Radikal bushing have the same type high-rebound urethane, maybe better.

But there is the possiblilty that the Radikal bushings might have a larger Outside Diameter than would fit the hanger bushing cups and the bushing cup on the baseplate of the G*Truck. This is easy to trim down if you have the right tools, a bench grinder and a drill is best/quickest I think.

But just so you know the bushing cups on those G*Trucks for the baseplate and hanger are smaller than either Tracker or Indy, the stock G*Truck bushing has a smaller OD than most. And most other bushings I've tried need a slight trim. My guess is that you'd need to trim Radikal bushings to fit.

My understanding is that the Radikal bushings have an exact heigth of 9/16". Could anyone here tell us the OD measurement of the Radikal bushings?

Radikal bushings are indeed 9/16" high, with an OD of 1 1/8".
