Sector 9 California Pintail Longboard Review

The sector 9 california pintail longboard is great for bombing hills and carving really this board can become just about anything you customize it to be, though I wouldn’t recommend kickflipping a 4 stair with this monster (if you can, kudos to you). This board comes with wheel cutouts so you can use just about any truck on it you want. Like I said earlier though the wheel cutouts and long wheelbase make this board so customizable that you can really do just about anything with it.

The california pintail comes with san clemente trucks and wheels but thought these would suffice just fine you can get something loads better for just a few extra dollars. For trucks I recommend bombers and chargers for trucks for downhill and sidewinder if you want to carve and cruise. For wheels I recommend any of the sector 9 wheels in a bout a 70-75mm I recommend a 85a or harder for sliding or 80a and below for anything else. For bearings since you just some abec 5′s which aren’t all bad but if you’re bombing hills can sometimes blow and the abec 5′s don’t have a removable shield (unfortunately) however reds are probably the best for the price and they have a removable shield which is a bonus because you save a lot of money by just cleaning your bearings instead of going out and buying another 20$ set of bearings.
