Hey guys I was wondering if Inward posts to Australia because i'm thinking of getting new forks. And also if they do post to here, what is the shipping cost (preferably for Adelaide 5158).
Do Inward Scooters post to Australia?

I think they do if you order over $300 or something. They say that skater hq is the australian dealer for inward, even though you pay through your arse.

Thanks for that I seen the skater HQ site on there but I was hoping for it not to be the only one. It's very expensive over at SHQ so I have decided to get forks elsewhere. Have you ridden Yak shock absorber forks? They seem like a good idea seen as my wrists screw up after getting decent air.

its oretty much the same price if you order from over seas skate hq is that expensive
Skater HQ is expensive but they still brought alot of shit down here for us so I guess we shouldn't really care about the price.
If you want something cheap, I'm pretty sure the blunt forks coming out are gonna be under 100 but I can't be sure, and they look pretty strong and stylish.

Otherwise you have all the other ones to decide from, inwards, district (cheap, but not sure about quality), proto, apex, phoenix, quebec and whatever else you can get down here.
I would probably stay away from yak stuff too, i don't think it would last you very long.
What kind of riding do you do? Like park, street, vert?

I scoot mainly park but when there are really douche skaters at my local I do street. (T-whips off curbs, curb grinds, etc.)

The blunt ones look good but I fear for my axle in them. They look like after a while the axle will have stripped/grinded down and my axle may fall out. But who knows, I might try them because i'm skint at the moment.

Yeah, I just took another look at them then I didn't really have a look the first time. I see what you mean now. Do you know when these are coming out and if they are threaded/thread less, because I don't have a compression system and a thread less fork to go along, I've saved up 11 dollars in 5/10 cent coins so I have a while to go before i can actually buy something. Just bought a whole new set up because my other scooter was stolen so i'm low on funds ATM.
Here is the info on them
So, yeah they are threadless not threaded, I guess if you take it into metal work at school or something you could put threads on it with a tap and die, but you'd be better off saving up for some sort of threadless compression. They should be out soon, I think it was mid November? You'd also need a threadless headset but I think you made a thread about that already.
One more thing, do you have an MGP?

Yeah i'll probably just save up for a compression system too. Yes, I do have an MGP it was stolen from me around 2 months ago. Luckily the person who stole it was there and I got it back, although he took my wheels, bars and clamp he had the stock MGP bars on it and crappy wheels and bearings. What would be the cheapest thread less fork thread less headset and decent compression system? ATM I am using a district double clamp, ultra pro forks and razor pro headset LOL quite shitty my bars wobble like fuck because the slit on my bars are like for quad clamps.
