Just got these trucks and put them on my 46" pintail and went down a pretty mild hill. Man it was awesome! Carving felt so smooth, the board was so responsive. It felt very surfy, like I was on water. I'd like to try a little more speed and see how they feel.
Speaking of speed, these trucks turn so tight I really found it easy to control speed by carving, which is great because I don't know how to slide yet, so carving is all I can do to control speed.
All things considered, I'm very happy with these trucks and I can't wait to see what else they can do.
Update:
I took my board with the sidewinder trucks on a more extensive trip and it was awesome. Rode down a parking garage and the board was able to carve down some pretty steep ramps with no problem. I could do a full u-turn at around 15-20 mph no problem without sliding.
The board is so responsive, it really feels like you're on water. If these trucks can stand the test of time as well as normal trucks, they will be my favorite all-time trucks.
Update #2:
Took these trucks out for a 2+ hour ride which included carving up a pretty steep hill. These are great trucks for carving. So much easier to control speed than with traditional longboard trucks such as Randall 180s (which I also own). I don't slide or anything like that but I feel like these trucks could bust a slide if you wanted them to.
In conclusion, I love these trucks and I will probably buy more when as I build my collection.
