I went to the CEN site to take a look, and there are three models. The MT, Buggy, and Truggy. There are a couple different reviews too, but none of the truggy.

It was this video that sorta made me think twice about wanting one though... and the review that comes up when you go to the Truggy/magazine review. That review confirmed what I feared from this video:

That these trucks are nose dive central! Maybe many big trucks like this are, I don't know. But these are jumpers, that's for sure!

alot of things can cause nose dives, its not always the balance, it can be as simple as the way you come off the jump to what shock oil weight and Spring weight you are using.

as for cen, i have never owned one so i really dont know how well the hold up but I'm pretty sure they are just slapping their name on that 1/5 because i have seen it before, just cant remember who's name was on it then
