please, advice
boys, if found a pair of NOS 9" gullwing super pro 3 trucks with composite base plates, all new, never used, at the bottom of a box in the corner of a shop here.
watcha think, should i get? i'm a tracker man since the beginning of time and onwards (this might come as a shock to some members of this community but: never really understood what all the indy fuzz is about but the only time i rode gullwings was in like 1979 and i can't remember whether i liked or not.
opinions?
/lil' tom
p s. for those who saw the pix i posted of the hosoi i got: it' features a sort of steep angled nose, and i do find that together with the concavave it holds my goofy front foot in place better than i would have thought. it's like those size 12's of mine are surrounded by "walls" on not just 2 but 3 sides and, i dunno ... it just seems to give more hold.
so i compare with my s b's and see that the s b nose is less angled.
dAvO, is that for a reason or ...? if not, then maybe worth exploring?

Re: please, advice
Get the Gullwings!
Our good pro bro' Chris Goberilla used to ride for them back in the day and still rides them to this day on his backyard ramp here in AZ. They are a sick truck indeed.
Now don't be bringing the Indy vs. Tracker debate to this pleasant forum... might have to throw ya' down on the mat there, Tom!

When Gullwings grow up, they wanna be Indys.
Ditch the Trackers, grind the Gullwings.
