to AXIS or not to AXIS??!!?! that is the question

ok somebody had to bring this up...DOES it make a difference??? to me i believe it does...but maybe its just me and the influence of george using them...(good marketing by the way) the other day i tried them and it really made a difference that it doesnt have the heel part( the longboards im talking about) i guess im gonna end up buing them anyway,but i wanted to know if its worthed or not...
also...TRICK or AXIS??? what do you guys think??

george i really need your take on this...i know you play axis,and you told me you think it makes a difference,but is it worht it??? i still remember the thing you told me "a good pair of feet can work with any pedals" GREAT LINE!!! hahaa

peace and cheers.!!!

I like my Eliminators more than A long boards, which is nice because they are less than half the price!

I played two Axis A Long Board Singles for about 5 years, actually i switched to a IC Double Pedal and i feel very comfortable with them. I have more control an a better rebound, also i needed over 2 month to have the right set-up for the Axis Boards!
BUT Axis pedals are still the shit..when i would have the money at the moment i would buy a Axis double pedal for sure!!!

btw. the reason for the Pedal switch was, the Dealers here in germany are not able to get a damn Conversion Kit and axis don`t have the best support in my opinion..but it was a fucking hard choice for me to sell my babies!

There are LOTS of Axis threads here already, and a few Trick ones too. The search function is very helpful. ;-)

im going to try and longboard my eliminators. ive already gotten the footboards made, just never have any extra money for hinges. (my wife loves to spend)
when i get lessons from kollias this month ill get to try axis, im fairly excited about that. even though my top speed is probably somewhere in the 150 mark i really want to see how axis longboards FEEL to me. id like to buy a set, black looks killer.

I 'longboarded' my IC pedals before opting for the Axis pedals. They were great! made the footboards myself thiugh. I used DW hinges. They are quite tough & do not have play on them.

Good luck with the conversion.
