Sector 9 Mr Joel Tudor

The Sector 9 Mr Joel Tudor is a great addition to anyones collection or an awesome starter to anyone looking for a new board. It has a mellow kicktail which is great for popping onto and off of curbs and other obstacles in the road as well giving your place a something to push against for tighter corners, in tighter places. Another great thing about the Joel Tudor and what makes it so worth the money in my opinion is the bowl concave along with the camber, the concave really makes you feel locked in but not in a bound type way, it's like an arch support on shoe because of the camber which gives it life, and snap, as well as making it much more responsive for carving and cruising.

The Joel Tudor comes with grease ball bearings, sector 9 wheels, and gullwing trucks. For wheels you could go with anything from Orangtang In heats or a low durometer stimulus if you have the money upgraded sector 9 wheels or abec 11 flashbacks, zig zags, or big zigs, it's all really down to preference but I would recommend a softer wheel in 65-75mm. As for bearings, I think Reds are the best for the money, but if you have the money get some bones swiss or even ceramics if you're not looking to buy bearings for the next 3 years. And honestly the Gullwing trucks are good no matter what else you put on but if you want something really responsive and to give you a more surfy and responsive ride then try out the sector 9 sidewinders, however if you plan on taking this board past 25 mph though I would just stick with the gullwings. Again, if you're looking for an awesome commuting or carving board, you really can't beat the price for such a quality board.
