When it comes to getting the best out there, this is what you can get for a neat freestyle 7.75 setup.
On the setup:
7.75 Almost Ubber Light: This board is the lightest and the hardest one you can find on the market, the price is quite high but this board is not going to break anytime.
Mob Grip: Grippy griptape and a griptape that last for months.
Bones Wheels: This ones are special because these are 36mm width and 56mm diameter, so not too big but enough to make your setup offset. You don't get flat spots easily. For me this are the best wheel in the street skateboarding market if you like hard wheels.
Theeve TIH Trucks: Lightest trucks you can get, made with titanium and axeless, so you're not going to have any trouble with detached axes messing with your bearings. This trucks don't bend at all! Here's when the precision starts.
Seismic TekTon Bearings: This bearings are special, because they completely adjust into the truck axle width with their integrated half spacer. You don't need spacers or replace teared aluminum spacers, it keeps the precision in order. I'm still using bearings that I bought four years ago.
It doesn't make sense to get ABEC 7 if the system that holds doesn't work as it should be. I hear that someone made a world speed record with this bearings and these are not the top of this brand.
Rails: These are not only to slide but to grab your board when handstands. They make the board heavy, but if you're into handstands or under feet tricks this are a must. On this set I'm using Santa Cruz Block Cells Rails.
Theeve Titanium 1" Hardware: I bet you'll be dead and this hardware will still working.
Rat Nuts: Classic ones from the 80's, they don't tear at all and fit perfectly in all hardware available. It holds your skid plates ad rails so no sound no missing parts.
Corebones Skid Plates: I made those so it will be stupid no to use them. I took a lot of care and plastic research to build these. CNC cutted.
Vicious Griptape: Be careful with your fingers, this thing holds every corner of you underboard. Great if you do a lot of caspers, pogos. A good replacement of the rails if you don't mind to cut your fingers or tear your shoes.
Bones Bearing Cleaning: Just follow the instructions and don't be scared to put your bearings on water with soap.
Bones Speed Cream: This is like the after shaving when you clean the bearings. Just don't abuse it.
Alien Workshop Snob Tool: My favorite, even if it doesn't have phillips, is super compact.
Bones 0.125" Raisers: These are hard, they last and it fits the trucks, it doesn't let extra plastic outside.
With all these pieces together you're ready for war, and don't have to think about any broken parts.
