Just got my anniversary gift from the wifey and, among other things, got me a new Afroman 'Chuck to add to the quiver!! I was totally surprised, and stoked to say the least!
So the question now is, what set-up do I go with? I'll probably use my OG Sh!+Fires with some new rockets, but I need new trucks. Any suggestions? |

180mm Seismics. Quick front, stable rear. 1/4" hard risers and 1/8" softies. |

Yeah, Seismics. Or mix'n'match and put a Dart 184 on the rear.
You'll be surprised by how "small" that board rides. Jonny and Sean at Afroman are mad scientists when it comes to short longs (or long shorts). |

The mix-n-match sounds good. Should I wedge the Dart?
Not only does my wife know what to get, she knows where to get it!
Thanks Mark!  |

Yes, wedge the front Dart.
Tanks for the biznez, too. |

| Congrats! It's like having a baby when you get an Afroman board, and a Numchuck is like having twins. I like Six Tracks and No Skoolz in the ditch or street on mine. Took a run down Indian School ditch in ABQ last night on my Chuck with that set up. Been running the Chuck at the park with Shitfire Blackfartz too. |

Hola Dunn,
Go with the Seismic 180mm trucks(45* front/30*rear; change
to the Green springs on the back trucks) I don't think you'd
need to wedge the front truck...but it's a personal taste thing.
Seismics are "magic" for longer decks.
It's a great match between deck and trucks!
You will be "groovin' " on the Numbchuck.
