Skateboarding??????????????????
For skateboarding what pair of trucks are better, Tensors or Indies,?
I dont beleive I have ever skated indies before. I have tensors and they are pretty alsome. They are very light and they have a plastic slider peice. To be honest I can grind just as well with the plastic peice or bare metal. But the problem with these tensors, and idk if this is all trucks or just tensors is the trucks tend to lean towards one side. So if I were to push my deck straight out from me It would curve right. I can keep it under control while im on the board but im just learning to skate switch and its a bit annoying. So is this just tensor’s bushings or do all trucks do this?
Now indies I hear are like the best of the best. But Im concerned about the weight. How much will that effect me. I skate miniramps most of the time. The other 25% I skate flat street. And the other 25% I will skate on rails, stairs, platforms, and ramps. So how much will the weight effect me if im trying to kickflip onto a 1 foot high platform. Are indy bushings better? I dont really feel like buying doh doh’s for my tensors.
Two tensors im looking at
Tensor response magnesium
or Tensor slider magnesium
Whats the different between the response and slider OTHER then the slider peice
And the indy is
Independent Stage 10 Pro V Trucks
Also if it helps I have skated, krux, venture, Blanks and currently have a pair of tensor sliders and really didnt care for them. Ventures dont grind well. the blanks were to heavy but seemed to respond well. Krux were, eh idc for em.
Please help me decide

Oh yeah and what is a good pair of wheels doesnt wear down the graphics.
I had darkstars, ricta’s and spitfires. I love ricta’s smoothness, it makes the ride smoother. The darkstars, were technically advanced. it had some where things in it, hard to explain. but my truck got bent, and the wheel wore down unevenly. Spitfire I gave back to friend. didnt care for them.
So whats yoru fav pair of wheels.

Royal Skateboarding Trucks?
Okay, I just got new Royal trucks and they don’t slide. I have a waxed rail and when I ollie onto it to do a 50-50 it doesn’t slide. I just get stuck… If I use any other board with different trucks they work. Why do my new trucks just stick to the rail and don’t slide when I do 50-50′s or 5-0′s or something… Also, when I put all pressure on my board and it’s in 50-50 position and try to drag it down the rail, it just goes a little and it struggles to make it down the rail… How can I get my trucks to work?
Also, I don’t want to use my old trucks that work because I feel bad cause my mom bought them for me and if I don’t use them it will be a waste of money… I need help.
