Surfing Dirt Mountainboard Forum

the size definitely matters, if they are too small or large they either won't go into the hubs or will fall right out, you have to get the right bearings for the axle diameter (inner bearing diameter) and the hub diameter (outer bearing diameter) skateboard bearings are usually cheap but I'm not sur...

they look like channel trucks with a built in angle, has anyone tried these or heard of them?

as the title says, I want to know do mbs treads fit black inlay star hubs? they are used by various electric board brands including eglide. I really like thew appearance but I am having difficulty getting any company to give me details. if any of you have some details I'd like to hear them.

do you still have these?

It's all fun and games till the cops get called, then it's hide and seek

try reversing the trucks on your prototype, I have a shlong board, Basic popsicle with trucks mounted to tails, herd something about reversing the trucks for them, so I tried it and my trucks suddenly worked in reverse. lean left, turn right = not good May I suggest you turn the edges into angled ki...

has anyone used the eglide wheels? they look pretty cool and are 9 inches. unfortunately the company didn't return my emails, not the best sign. they also have a Torsion truck (2nd pict) that looks interesting not sure how it works, Orriginal sells something similar up to 11 inches they claim can ha...

found mention of this in amazon review, called "Bladeboards" you could try and find one of these http://www.livetofun.com/?cat=178

last time I asked questions about specifications I got crickets so here a simple questioon. do mbs trucks ats and pro-matrix use the new school skateboard bolt pattern? if anyone is concerned I've read mbs wheels have a 22mm outer diameter just like skate wheels, so with thembs bearings I could use ...

found this on ebay searching for parts, verry interesting. I've seen freeline skates, and rode rollerblades, despite good looking construction this doesn't seem too thought out http://http://www.ebay.com/itm/All-Terrain-Inline-3-Wheeled-Skateboard-Custom-Bored-Skate-XT-Wheelz-/131401097926?pt=LH_Def...

I'd be interested in the trucks with the brakes, however I'm in the USA, not sure what the shipping might be.

when I asked about dirt windsurfing they basically told me anything will do, the longer the better, just not the mbs atom line, google images seems to show windboarding as both that and kiting

supposedly better traction, possibly smoother, i hadn't heard of grass skis, do you know how the tracks work on those, i didn't see any gears or wheels in the photos, is it a bearing track?

howbout this design, lol http://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Dirt-Skateboard-70mm-PU-Wheels-with_1204790597.html Ferengi Rules of Acquisition #239 Never be afraid to mislabel a product.

and here i thought they were going to be refering to the shape, not the graphics, too bad... "Tech Deck MBS 5" Razor Mountainboard" solid aluminum, or http://i0.wp.com/hypebeast.com/image/2012/03/santa-cruz-the-simpsons-500th-bart-slasher-deck-0.jpg?w=450

I am considering building my own trucks, I'd rather not spend $180+ for two trucks, and I don't see a dirt windboard that doesn't jump or do tricks as being too hard on them, I was hoping someone could tell me some of the dimensions and angles for a pair of Mbs trucks peferably top and bottom sectio...

I do like the idea of tank tracks for a board, I'm just not sure how well it would steer or how much the friction will slow it down

Has anyone else seen these "Descenders", I think it looks interesting, however I haven't seen any real reviews or videos for it, they all seem to be 5-year-olds going in a strait line, though in an email they told me I could make sharp turns with enough speed. Here's a video showing the truck moveme...

the scrub link is down

I'm not exaggerating about the thorns my mountain bike got a flat tire riding it on the road with an inner tube filled with slime and wrapped in two other inner tubes that had died previously. By the way I should mention that my budget is practically zero and nothing can be purchased locally unless ...
