I'm honestly surprised! haha

thanks for the help everyone this is why I miss the online fb community!

Serious question though guys..been looking at the new brr completes with the Black river trucks and brr edition wheels and my question is, is it worth paying $100+ for this setup when a bollie or other similar setup can be bought for $50?

Sorry for the nub questions but I've ever actually used the new mold berlinwoods or any of the new trucks/wheels.

i bought one and was very satisfied with it. It all comes down to whether or not you have the money to spend. Sure you can just get some tech deck trucks and g6 wheels if you wanted and they will work just as good. just make sure that you know the width of the deck so you can get wide enough trucks for it. most decks nowadays are 32mm and brr makes 32mm trucks but if you want wide tech deck trucks, you have to get a longboard edition off of amazon or eBay, etc.

edit: If you have a good income of money, go for it.

I'm definitely not about to drop $140 on it but I've seen some used ones on eBay for around $80 and wanted to know if it was worth picking up, thanks.

I was let on FFI around 08, remember seeing your name around...

I'd say if you could afford it to grab a complete, but make sure you're getting the width and shape you want theres a lot out there. I gotta grab myself a 33 wide low when I have the money

Depends on your budget, but considering there's nothing else on the market that compares to an all pro set up, it's worth it in the end. But, if you can't afford one right off the bat, then it's definitely not a priority. You can still accomplish fingerboarding with something else.

I really appreciate all the feedback in this thread! The consensus seems to be that it's a matter of sufficient funds. Being an adult and fingerboarding really does have it's advantages haha. Also I don't know if asking this is against the rules but, if anyone has a pro style setup, or any setup for that matter, that they are looking to get rid of pm me!
