| it's peoples preference, wider decks are easier to flick and shorter decks are harder to flick with. |

I personally like wider decks because i have long ass fingers, and it's more comfy for me as apposed to having a really thin deck. The lowest I'll ride is a 31mm. I love 32.5mm though. I be rockin' that Blosom 32.5  |

yes, but the turning system isn't as proper as it is on the the regular BRT baspeplates. I highly recommend buying a pair of brt's with original bases. |

| Keiran I had that same problem with my ytrucks but they got on eventually..try tightening a bolt, then the bolt diagonal to the 1st one, but tight them just so the truck can hold on, then tight them in turns (a bit on the 1st, a bit on the other, a bit on the 1st, a bit on the other, etc..) then try tightening the other ones  hope I helped |
