  • aren't these like 200 bucks or something crazy though?

  • @MCBCCitizen brand spankin new ones will, but if you hunt around buy,sell,trade groups you'll probably be able to find a good deal! Thats actually how I got mine :)

  • When is the Seeker releasing. I got refunded the first time I tried to buy it...and I want it back...

  • what shoes?

  • Comment removed

  • this guy sounds gay im mean kitties dude man up

  • @LongboardingUSA825 Ya this dudes not gay, im his roommate and his girlfriend is Hawt!, and I can guarantee that he shreds face harder than you ever have or will.

  • Wait if your trucks are so loose how do you do big slides?

  • don't get these, get devil-reys. same as surf rodz but address all issues in them. theyre 140 for a full set or just 80 for hangars that work on baseplates from randal, paris, bear, gunmetal, and caliber.

  • 0:52, how the fuck? my rodz are really stiff

  • how do u like the seeker?

  • @JarLongboarding I don't like it, I LOVE it. Absolutely my favorite free ride board I've set foot on! I can't say it enough, I want to yell it from the rooftops. If it were a human I'd marry it in a second. I LOVE THE SEEKER

  • spend some more money and just get ronins

  • get yo self some 75a flashies!

  • DUDE ur knees are soo far down ur legs :P

  • dislike the video for the kitties!

  • @shanec231 The 0 dislikes we have so far disagree with that idea :)

  • im saving for surf rodz, but i cant decide whether to get trusty 50 degree or try out 45's! i dont want to spend that much on a different degree truck that ive never ridden before... idk

  • Comment removed

  • @xStubbyLB I have been skating the 45's but theres nothing wrong with the 50's! The 45's may take a little getting used to but its just going to be subtle differences in the way that the trucks turn, but either one will slide! If your really on the fence I would recommend the 50's because they're what you know and enjoy!

    -Tristan

  • @LongboardingReview Yeah that's what I was probably going to do. Thanks for replying so fast! and this review is the best surf rodz review ive ever seen, ive watched this around 5 times just admiring those trucks.. they are my dream. I just cant decide either what color to get haha.

  • Would you recommend the RKP Surf Rodz 200mm 45 degree baseplate trucks if I'm gonna be riding a Rayne Mini Killswitch and a Grease Hammer? I freeride and DH. Also, if I put two barrels on the trucks, how will they feel?

  • @PRskater64 For the killswitch I would recommend the 45 degree plates but a hanger with the adjustable wheel extenders. If I remember correctly they can extend from 176 to 186 to 196, so you have a ton of options that you can change around and have it set up well for each board, whether it be the killswitch or the hammer

  • Comment removed

  • @LongboardingReview Thanks for the recommendation! Also can you please make a video of how to put the RKP Surf-Rodz together? It's because there used to be a MotionBoardShop video that showed how to put them together, but I think they removed it.

  • @PRskater64 As far as the baseplates and stuff go its the same as any other cast truck, you just have to wiggle it in because its so precise, but really its the same. For the axels, see 2:41 it shows how you put the wheel on the axel first, screw the axel into the hanger, and to finish off you screw in the set screws. If need be I can do a really cruddy webcam explanation on my personal channel. Let me know if you want me to and it shall be done!

    -Tristan

  • @LongboardingReview Great! What's your personal channel?

  • @PRskater64 15citrus51! im recording it right now for ya!

  • Comment removed

  • @LongboardingReview Thanks man!

  • @PRskater64 hey man, this is the channel! the video should be good to watch!!

    -Tristan

    p.s. sorry ahead of time. once you watch it you'll understand

  • What were you doing when your axles fell out? I never ride set screws on my INDeeSZ or RKPs and never have problems and haven't ever heard of anyone else having that experience.

  • @SkateTheEast It has happened to me a few times now, once just playing around in a basketball court waiting on a ride, and another time happened as I was free riding. Luckily I was able to run it out but the second I threw the board into a slide one of the axels fell out and sent a 3 wheeled deck rocketing down the road. I suggest you get them just in case, they're only 2 bucks and they will save cash on bandaids hahaha

    -Tristan

  • @LongboardingReview Haha I appreciate it, own 'em and choose not to run 'em. I just double check to make sure my axels are all tight at the beginning of ever session (I inspect my gear at the start anyway) and never have any issues.

  • is the w concave of the seeker uncomfortable?

  • @osker95 The Seeker has one of the most comfortable and effective W concave that I have ever ridden. Not once have I found myself uncomfortable on it

    -Tristan

  • @LongboardingReview Does Lifelong longboards sponsor?

  • @IcyThaneProductions As of right now the team is fairly stacked, but it can't hurt to send in any videos and put your name in the mix!

  • your damn right he's gay. he's not only gay but he is an inspiration to all gay longboarders, he is proof that we are not alone. proof that you can be an unbelievable longboarder, ridiculously sexy, and gay! god bless him!!!

    p.s.-i'd tap that

  • So are these kinda the bushing version of the original trucks?

  • @TheLongboard4lyfe No not really, in fact they are rather different hahaha. A bushing version of the Original S series truck (in my opinion) would be the Indy 215. I started off on Originals, and later found myself on Indy trucks and found that the two have very similar turning characteristics, however with the Indy's you have the advantage of messing around with bushing set ups and dialing in how your trucks feel!

    -Tristan

  • DO A REVIEW OF THE SEEKER GODDAMNIT. THAT WOULD MAKE MY DICK ROCK HARD.

  • @calciumandshit There is something in the works for the Seeker on the Lifelong Longboards Youtube page! Be sure to subscribe so you're the first to see it! :)

  • hey its me again and i got the money for these and i wanted to know what size to get (hanger length) I do mostly freeride and im gettin into downhill and i ride my trucks decently tight so does the 200 millimeter kinda feel different for free ride cause i ride gunmetals 180 so what would u think is better for me? ill have it on a rayne avenger btw

  • @MrBookluck 200 is defiantly on the wide end, i use it for both dh and free ride however in an ideal world i would have gotten the 176's with the axel extending system so you are able to play with the widths and figure out what feels best!

  • What company makes these boards...They are awesome!

  • @09cave1 Lifelong Longboards! Check out in the description bar there is a link to their website!

  • @LongboardingReview Thanks so much! I think im going to order one of these the day i get enough money!

  • what do you think i should get 200mm or 175 hangers i like to freeride ad downhill

  • @bikeandlongboard I would look at the 175s and get the surf-rodz axel extending system so you can play around and find the width that feels right for you!

  • can the surfrodz be dropped through?

  • @CTboardz Yes!

  • @LongboardingReview YESSSSSSSSSS!!!

  • i think i know what i want for christmas :D

  • What board

  • Would u prefer these over indeez?

  • @MrBookluck hey man this is tristan (the dude reviewing, I'm on my personal channel hahaha). Ive never tried the indeesz but I was on indy 215s. That being said, traditional kingpin trucks are a lot of fun but speed can be an issue. I hit about 30mph on them and thats as fast as I was comfortable going due to the fact that traditional kingpins have no lean to turn ratio, just straight turn. I imagine indeesz are similar just more responsive which would make speed a bigger issue

    -Tristan

  • @15Citrus51 thx

  • Great Review

  • wow whoever is reviewing those is wicked attractive ;)
