  1. I am currently running Zoo! pads on a light grind and they work amazingly well. If the weather is dry I use a bit of tar on them as well and they just lock streight away as soon as I pull the lever and very rarely slip when gaping or anything really. They have also got very good wet preformance, not as good as Koxx browns on a harsh grind but they still work quite well (much better than Plazmatics :P ). They have been on my bike for a good few months now and are still going strong.

    I strongly advise them.

  2. Hi is that the st.Ives park with the golf course and fishing lake by harden?

    Is it a holiday park by some sand dunes? If it is then that is in Godrevey which is just around the coast.

    EDIT: That's St Ives in my avatar <<<.

  3. It's all about control on your back wheel, you need to find the perfect body position that is comfortable and balanced. Go right back to just hoping on your back wheel, then put some pennys on the floor and practice hopping onto them then to the next and so on. Eventually your balance will become like a natural postition when you go onto your back wheel and it will be effortless (Y) .

  4. the highest i have ever done is 6 ft but that was ages ago but i cant to huge drops anymore cause i got scoliosis (a curve in my spine) so it might bend even more pretty shit really

    The highest i have done is about 5 and a half feet. Grant, your back is like a banana :lol: .

  5. Defiantly a Hope Disk. You get allot more feel over the bike and my hope just locks nowadays, no messing around. You also don't get random people shouting "oil your breaks" It's nice and silent.

    Edit. Here is another topic like this mate. Link.

  6. When I lived in New Zealand I would surf for 7 months of the year and skate in between the days of crummy surf, for 3 months I would snowboard and quit skating and for 2 months I would just skate and very occasional go sufing because of the cold sea, i'm a pussy :- . For the rest of the time I would sleep and go to school. Now I just ride trials, sleep, go to school and watch trials movies.

  7. I would go for tensile's if I was you mate. Well actually I was trying to decide the same thing earlier today and I decided to go for tensile, you know they can be trusted, they are stiff, many people have run them for years and still not snapped them and they have a good warranty. Echo's on the other hand have not been out for long so we don't know how long they will last, they look nice I will give them that and quite nice to ride.

    Tensile's (Y) (I'm not too sure about the new ones though, I haven't heard anything about them).
