LOVE Deck! But Trucks and Wheels requires an update

I needed a college cruise board and bought this board 10 months ago. The board is beautiful! Great colors and a solid deck, but that's where the good quality ends. The trucks and wheels on this board are just plain cheap. They don't pull or release well, the wheels aren't big enough to move comfortably (I drive on flat roads/sidewalks and it was STILL uncomfortable.) And turning with the original trucks was just plain sad. When I first learned to board, I figured I wasn't good at it and needed more practice, so I kept using the same carts and wheels. I switched to Sector 9 bearings, wheels and bogies about 2 months ago and immediately felt a HUGE difference. And what is the best? I didn't stink from boarding as much as I thought! If you can't afford to replace the entire bearing, wheel and bogies, at least get a good quality set of bogies. You can really turn a lap and maneuver well.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • I don't remember
