Will do.
As for part two of my question, I meant 'bearings' (duh) not bushings. I am told Builtins are good, wonder if they're similar to the Reflex 9 balls I have..? |

the builtins are pretty good, not super fast, but stable as hell.

| I recently rode a Fantail at Rye Airfield with Brad from Nor'easeter. Its a great deck! Pool & Park riding, carving, and you could definitley bomb with this board. Mine is coming in the mail this week! The one I rode was set up with Randal 180's, and Abec 11 Flywheels. (75a I think). All around great deck. I also saw a new one that just sold and I must say - fantastic craftsmanship! 3 thumbs up! |

Hey everyone!
glad to see people stoked about the deck...Howdy Jim! how's the weather down there? catch the super bowl? woo hoo! Pats!
Matt...you ride that "piece of furniture yet?
come on now...beat it up a little....ok not too much....
Ghost...lots of nasty weather where you are too...don't you hate freezing rain? we're getting snow out of this one Tuesday...
And Doug....well yours should be there Tuesday (2/3) or so...
For those of you who like the Flywheels, if you're thinking of getting more, I suggest you do so soon....they aren't made anymore and the replacements in the 74 - 75 mm range won't be out for a long time...(83's will be out fairly soon..a couple of months?)...new 75's...(yeah, 75's)next year maybe? ABEC 11 is not sure. we're only selling them with completes now because they're gonna get rare, but hit up the local shops!! |

Brad and others,
I also have some Flywheels left in stock. I have a few sets left 74mm at 75a and 78a.

P-A-T-S! Pats, Pats, Pats!
Brad, I got exactly 2 runs in with that beauty before we got buried in snow, but it's amazing. It's a killer, stable ride, and I'd never ridden Randalls before. Turny as can be!
Anyhow, I'd recommend this deck (and setup) to ANYONE who is looking for an all-purpose weapon...although I'm likely to keep mine for hillbombs and parking garages!
Great product, perfect customer service. Thanks, Brad. |
