Yeah i was using a Lush mako and a globe slide, but then i decided to try the samba which was great when i was sliding on the pucks down the hill, it went wrong when i decided to go a bit faster. You can't tighten siesmic trucks as they a spring loaded, you can put in stiffer springs which i didn't have at the time. Anyway just out of interest, why would you loosen the trucks to overcome speed wobble?
The guy at 0:42 is taking a risk riding his Lush samba fast down a steep hill. I tried my samba at Go Fast Eastbourne, speed wobble = major crash. Push the Samba too fast and it'll turn round and stab you in the back!
Speed wobbles occur, I don't mean to insult you, but speed wobbles can come from you not just handling the board or just that the board just isn't your type. Some get through speed wobbles by loosening trucks others by tightening them. Do you handle speeds like you had with the Samba with other boards? Then you got the wrong board mate.
sweet lol, luckily im going on hols soon where there is actually a skate shop cos my towns shit lol, but ill check em out cos ive just been cleanin mine out recently lol, cos im a tightass lol :)
