Big thanks to Riley for lending me these trucks for several months and cutting me a great deal on them.

Yeah your review videos are basically the bible at this point. Having ridden these for a season, I wasn't expecting to hear a 40 min detailed description of everything I felt on the trucks, but this is spot on.
Thanks!! I’m glad my experiences align with yours. I usually try to trim the fat from these videos, but I figured I’ll leave it all in because it had been so long since the last proper review.
would love for you to test some og caliber trucks and compare them to the new cali 3s love your content man🤙
As a huge Caliber trucks fan, I would love this too, Caliber II vs Caliber III Raked... since the non-raked is pretty much the same
been getting back into downhill skating, been street skating all my life but i stopped longboarding back in like 2014 so this whole new slalom truck craze is very new to me, been watching all of your reviews and i thank u for it. Still rocking one of my og setups with like 190mm surfrodz for freeride and a big sector 9 daisy but once i get my groove bakc i'll def invest in one of these smaller boards and trucks bc they seem so damn fun and cool looking
You can also use venom pivot tubes made for Rogue to replace the stock pivot cups
Very detailed, precise and consistent review ! Most of arguments make a lot of sense, and no bullshit here. Bravo
Thank you!
*Another great review!*
👌🏽🤙🏽👌🏽
I really enjoy these reviews, I'm a big truck geek so I love the depth and detail you go into, not just specs but ride feel/what it feels like to ride and the variations you try. 👌🏽
Additionally, bushing setups/info 🤩 Not many youtube reviews on the WFB formula so this was cool! Personally I wanna try their APS formula, I usually ride Venom HPF, the SHR formula wasn't for me so I'm guessin Riptide Krank won't be for me either.
Appreciated the pivot cup and bushing seat info, Very interestin trucks!

Love these trucks. They really blew me away. Your review is on point. I played around with these a bit to increase the slalom aspect by adding cone bushings roadside. I got real deep turns out of them. The cones defeat the restrictive bushing seats. A nice hack if you wanted to run cones with these. I know a few people running Zealous for GS slalom racing. A little slow on reaction for tight or most hybrid for me but these are a DH free ride truck and not a true slalom truck. But I will say this is one of the best purchases I’ve made in years. The Zealous trucks are a delight to ride.
Using cone bushings is interesting!! I’ll give it a try. Thanks for the insightful comment
I loved this! Your explanation and demo on the progressive bushing lean on the trucks was great! I'm going to steal your riptide bushing setup and buy some WFB's to match how you currently run your Zealous trucks.
How often did you try the different truck widths with the spacers? Do you think that would impact how they freeride / race?
I always used the widest width when freeriding and the narrowest when doing glove-down skating. It makes a small difference in improving grip and braking force
I became an immature 6th grader again right at 25:00
Thanks for the unintentional humor bud 😂
I will also be buying some zealous now. Your the second reliable recommendation and I'm moving on to narrowed trucks 🤙
I don’t even have to go back and check - I know exactly what moment you’re talking about 😂 I’m glad you found the video helpful!
Nice review as ever Owen. Can you tell me what wheelbase length these add? You mentioned in the DH Cybins review that those added 2 1/2” and I wondered how the Zealous compare. Thanks! Andy
Awesome review, I've been looking into saving up for my first pair of precision trucks. It was a tie between a set of DT Haki's or a set of Zealous Trucks. Bro, you basically jsut told me exactly what to get lol 😂 Also, what deck are you using in the video? I know you said it, but i couldn't quite understand what you said. So, if you could pleaaase lemme know the deck 🙏🙏🙏
WFB is like around 6A's lower than HPF in terms of hardness.
93A WFB feels similar to 87A HPF imo.
Your front trucks are not softer than double pink Venoms?
edit: WFB orange (78A) and green (73A) would make it feel comparable to HPF 72A (approximately the pink) and 67A (no HPF duro available).
Hey have you put 80mm wheels on these trucks? I feel like risers might be necessary depending on the board. I appreciate the review.
Largest I used were 79mm Cuei A1, and the widest I used were 78mm Magnums. I had no issues with wheelbite. If your deck has flush mounts that lower the ride height, you might need risers.
@@owencampbell777 I am in the process of setting up a landyachtz blaze. The mount is recessed but so are the wheel wells! I took a few light runs in the neighborhood with 80.5 alphas on 1/4 in risers and then went down to 1/8. Idk how confident I would be to send it without risers though. I very much appreciate your insight. Makes me feel pretty good knowing you are getting away without risers on these low trucks. This is my entry to narrow hangers and it only took a few short runs to understand why you guys are killing it on such small set ups 💯
Im looking to get these trucks as my first dh slalom trucks. What are your favorite dh/freeride wheels for techy stuff? Not looking for wheels that grip like a vice but i want something that'll slow me down smoothly. Im not a racer, I just like having fun and skating hard-ish. Thanks for the review and any help!
I think you would enjoy Muirskate Phat Boyz. They’re pretty grippy with skin but they turn into really comfortable DH wheels. I experienced smooth slides, even while they had fresh skin and lips. If you want something with more roll speed, the LDP version of the Seismic Alpha is fast as hell and isn’t as race-focused. They’re narrower and the lips aren’t as sharp, so they’re more comfortable to slide
Hi Owen, how do these trucks compare to Aear trucks K5 & K6.I would really appreciate your input ?❤❤
On a downhill longboard do the wheels have to be aligned with the board or can they stick out a bit
What do you think about them compared to Don't Trips, since they are both at the same price point. Great video thanks for the help ;)
These are way way way way better than don't trips
@@greenoli wow, that much?? 😂
You are ripping dude!
Thanks bro!
I borrowed a set from a buddy for a week but it I didn’t get the chance to mess with the bushings, they were set up pretty similar to how I normally ride my trucks but they felt pretty dead and not lively on slow paths (~30kmh) but felt great on fast runs, it’s what’s stopping me from buying a set cause I skate paths a lot, have you noticed that or does the deadness go away with tuning the bushings?
I tried seismic bushings in mine and that helped for me
Oh yeah, they livened up a bunch with the new bushings
