When they start breaking, yes. Currently, as it might be possible to just buy hangers for existing BRTs and have a functional 32mm pair of trucks, Blackriver are likely to try to make as much money as they can whilst they still can. In the future, there may be a public outrage from the lack of availability of 32mm hangers for sale if they do not put them up for sale in a suitable time frame. Alternatively, 32mm Tech Deck trucks have been available from Spin Master Tech Deck longboards for like 2 years for only $5. I sincerely hope that most fingerboarders are aware of this. 33mm trucks have been available from X-Concepts longboards 12 years ago also. |

Actually, my post was just my guess. Don't take my word for it. You could also try looking for trades as it will be cheaper to obtain but probably difficult at the moment. |

| i still stand firmly against this whole 32mm trucks deal.
also another question: Do TKY bushings allow you to get your brts looser than the stock bushings? because BRTs cant really get loose unless you want your kingpin nut sticking out atop your hangay |

| Does anyone think we should have a camera/editing section to this forum. Im looking for a new camera and i cant find any good information on good video cameras that record FB'ing well :/
anyways if anyone does have some good camera choices i have a budget of £250/$375 i dont want a gopro/contour and i have a canon 500d and a canon sx40 hs(this ones ok) but looking for something better. actually used my iphone for my first video for ease :/
An also maybe a section with video ideas, editing tips, capture settings etc..... everyone is filming themselves these days! |

| I'm not sure if this counts as a quick question but anyway... I've been looking around the facebook groups of fingerboading from my country, and I notice that unlike the friendly feeling I get here, there is a lot of hate in the facebook groups locally here.
There are tons of rude people there, people who fingerboard just for either fame, sponsors, and just to feel superior over the newcomers instead of fingerboarding for fun. So there are some cool people I know who are trying to change the local scene, but it does not seem to yield any results so far :/ So I'm wondering what would you guys do in this situation? And sorry for the long post :/ |

I'd think that the SX40 is the best camera you can get for £250 and isn't it quite a new camera, just released last year. If you do really want a DSLR camera; I'd just save up for another year or 2 and buy the 650D ( when released ) or 600D when it's cheaper. |
