Only comment i have is "Sweet setup"
Those tangs don't look very ridden, I'm getting really good feeling from mine roll like perpetual motion and rebound like a bouncy ball.
One thing might be the blue bones in the rear, bones bushings seem to have superb snap (riding them in my front truck) but I would prefer a yellow as I like the rear of the board to be really stable. Find it gives a nicer ride when you have to push and down hill.

P.s
To bring things down to a MAS level, what bearings are you running?

Ahh bearings...
Pleasure Tool Ceramics.
Yeah I've only just set it up, I'm still tweaking bushings etc.
Took it for a very very short spin and it seems to be okay but I need to get a few miles under my belt and try different settings.

Looks hot Alec! Hope the flex is working out well for you. Almost looks like you might be able to remove one of those thin risers from the front truck, to lower the whole deck just a smidgen? But one can never really tell without being there in person.
