Complete-Medium Concave Blank-7.5 x 31.25 Natural
-Jessup-
Destructo-5.0 (7.5) Raw
-Reds bearings
-White with Treads Wheels-50mm
White-7/8'' GK Hardware
-1/8'' Black Risers-Gripped

So i have a few questions. Since people here seem to know about this place, would this be the optimal build? Also, what do they mean by free grip on board?
Will i not get the jessup and instead get some generic one? Are the venture trucks better even though they cost less? Will those hardware/truck/deck/risers and whatnot fit together fine? Thanks for any input.

that's a great build man. the medium concave blank is good, even though i'd recommend the california blank over it. Free grip on board means they just apply it for you, and if you select jessup, you'll get it. and i personally LOVE ventures. turn smooth, grind smooth, and they are sturdy and strong. but some people also like destructo, so it's personal preference on the trucks. and i'd get at least 1" hardware since your getting risers, but the rest looks great to me.

Yeah, free grip on board just means that they put the griptape onto your deck so you don't have to.

I perfer Venture over Destructo. Independent are my favorites, but Ventures and Krux are definately up there.

[Super_Skater]

Yeah don't go with destructo. Like adio said, indy's, venture and krux are all better choices, thuders are also good.

it depends what how you like your trucks> i guess. if you like ones that have good turining go with indys..or if you like turning but not as great..grindking..or if you like tighter trucks go with destructo..or medium i guess. would be thunders.

Ya um never get grink kings, they are pretty much inferior to most trucks in every way. Also there any not really any good trucks for turning, all trucks are good for turning, it all depends on how much you loosen or tighten them.
