This sounds pretty cool, actually. Have you tried TKP’s yet?

I have but not extensively.
I’d love you to try a set of the Savage TKP’s out, and give your honest opinion. As far as stability at speed, I feel they are better than any RKP’s I have ridden thus far.

you try hoyt’s trucks/a uav? @hoytkid hit 44 with 90a bushings pretty easily, and he’s no feather.

In my experience I preferred the savages over the rosas at speed

Rosas are about retaining turnability while increasing stability. Focused on a balance somewhere in between those two extremes. Not sure of many trucks as stable and turnable (at the same time with no adjustments).

I think the trucks I have a great. I can do over 40 on them with green bushings no problem, I just want to explore improvements
Try playing with the rake and offset, there’s a ton of ways to make an RKP truck

I’ve never tried the Rosas but they look really cool, it looks like a ton of effort went into optimization. With how optimized they are, was all that built around a specific bushing duro or do bushings act kinda independently of the work you guys have done? I’m curious about how these feel for people on the opposite ends of the weight spectrum.
I’m 280lbs and Jackson is 180lbs. We can trade a UAV back and forth without even changing the bushing tension, much less the bushings themselves. YMMV.

What duro bushings come on the UAV?
Wild dude.
I am riding 90a barrels street side and 90a chubby boardside. For me personally this is ideal up to 45mph
