I ride a Gravity.  Independent trucks are the way to go. I'm sure they have their own website you can checkout.

you unscrew  the nuts in the wheel that attach them to the trucks. the best way to do this is with a standard skate tool from your nearest skateshop. remove the current bearings with a screwdriver by poking them out and replace the new bearings and the little pipe piece in between in the same placethey were before. this can be done with your hands

Not sure of the year but that is an old Burton Twin and by old I mean 10 or 12 years. The board itself isn't bad but there are definitely better options available today not to mention that I doubt you'd find one in decent shape. Those bindings are absolutely awful and since that board is pre 4x4 or 3d you'd be hard pressed to find good bindings for it\n\nEDIT: It most definitely is NOT an 06 Custom.

Depending on your level of skating you may be okay with a price point truck such as Core.  You may also like Industrials or New School.  If you are just starting out, any truck in the 12-15 price range will probably suit your needs.\n\nIf you have been skating for a while and are above the beginner skill level then you will be better off with the higher end brands.  Check out Indy, Thunder, Grind King, Venture, Royal, Krux, and Tensor.\n\nI hope this helps you out.\n\nLater\nJeff

riser pads are put on the bottem of the trucks they give you more pop and helps soften the landing\n\ni currently own a pair of zero risers

heres my deck\n\nI really like the responce of Spitfire wheels. the trucks are up to you, whatever you do. I think mine are King Grinds or somthing. Monkeynuts for all of the hardware and a World Industries deck.\n\nIt works for me and hasnt broken...yet.\n\nMy cousins swear by Darkstar though.

sure you just need low profile tires. just measure from the top of the spindles and give an inch or 3 for shock play over bumps and such.

theres a company in omaha Nebraska that has new take offs from older trucks, ask the question at omaha.com

it really depends on how much you skate and what all you do. if you ollie gaps or do drops your board prolly wont last too long. boardslides also wear your board down. if you want a board to last a while get a lib tech. they are i lil more expinsive but worth it. they have like 2 layers of fiber glass and those layers give the board long lasting durability, pop, concave, etc? but yea they are good boards that last a while. pretty hard to snap. i snap a lot of boards but i have never snapped my lib tech.

Haro manufactures Frames and the other parts are by other brands. it depends on which model of Haro you are talking about, my best best is go for more rigid parts rather than light weight, if you are doing streetfreestyle. Cheers

If you honestly can't tell the difference between boards I would go for one of those plastic boards that you can strap onto your sorels. They are about $15 at the hardware store.\n\nThis is not the time of year to be getting good cheap new gear, but try a local ski swap and try to find some used boots/bindings. Then at the end of the season get a pair of new boots 40% off. I really like burton boots/bindings. I just got a Rome deck and I'm loving it.\n\nPalmer sucks. I hope Sean Palmer burns in hell for making crappy decks.
