why, now that you ask, pick up some avalons and avilas, im sure there are many out there who would love them. cambrias are too small for the decks you sell, but if you start selling ts decks, then cambrias would be a good stock item as well. At first, i would carry two sets of each duro and see what sells. I have a strong feeling black avalons will be one of your best sellers. im too much of a pussy for those on most courses, but they are fun nonetheless. i could use a set of new avalons and seismics, but i need to hold back a little right now. Im at the point where my buying Park/pool stuff to slalom stuff is at a 10:1 ratio, respectively. also, i only have a month left till i go off to my summer job which is a skateboard teacher, and there wont be much, if any, room for slalom.

| depends on what you are doing. i am switching off. for cruising and longboard slalom and small downhill, i am using seismic 155s with avalons and for big downhill i am using randall downhills with cherry bombs. |

| ooh okay. i would suggest getting the smaller model. i dont think grime balls would be the best wheels for this no matter what you are riding. i think you should try out the red kross emergency wheels with seismics. |

yeah, i'd suggest much bigger and much softer wheels for something like this.. more like 70mm 78-85a....
check out http://www.abec11.com
as far as trucks,
randal 150's or 180's
seismic 155's or 180's
Wide indy's work (especially if you wedge the crap out of them)
I'm sure the Grimeballs are gonna be killer, but putting em on something like this is doing a dis-service to the deck AND the wheels.........
