Thanks,Yes, of course I really want to freestyle board, because I know that it would be easier to do tricks, but in our country is not sale. I'm thinking about buying over the Internet at this Sk8kings summer. Also to ride freestyle, I did the hard work to assemble their boards, I adapted from wide wheels Cruiser 62mm board size to 8.0, and get what you've seen on video , it is possible to ride. Board and the wheels at the same distance, so that Reilly be convenient, yet because of these very large wheels after a hard board.

This past fall I cut off his nose and Tail board for added convenience, has become much easier to do tricks in a position no Hund 50/50.

Why not have a look at the stuff here: http://www.nesk8-shop.de/ . They're based in Germany so you'll save a load on shipping and they have a nice range of boards as well as off-set wheels which will help with rail tricks.
The only other website I would recommend is Decomposed. If you e-mail the guy who runs it he should be able to put a board together for you.
The other option, which is what I do is have a street board with a freestyle adapted undercarriage: I ride a 7.8-ish board with 5.0 hangers and off-set wheels for railstands/primoslides, the way the offset wheels work out with the truck and board length is that the board sits perfectly in rail.
This way is easier for me as I like to do lots of different things with my board ad it also means I don't have to rely on shipping over anything too exotic (apart form the wheels) and it might be a good way to start as the transition to a full on freestyle setup is really quite stark.
Aslo, the video was really cool!
You had me at "shit covered mongoloid".
It's okay, we only understand part of what FixationOnPlastics says too!!
This is why I love skateboarding. People can take it and do what they want with it and be stoked on it. (except that Fiji 8x4 stuff)
