I reckon you're on the money there at 8 from the front of the box there.

mmmmm
fins are critical
all I know is that the ones that are in them go really good and when I've tried others not nearly as good, so I'd be a bit skeptical.

the early model there was an issue with the thread and importers were supplied with a fatter screw which solves the problem.

Hi fred
Tough on.
If you're liking the quads, I reckon it may be good to stay on them.

HI DML
At 78 k'gs I'd be saying the 81
The shorter length and greater width is probably better to go for the smaller volume board.

74 and 75 not really loving the 5.7.
