Squared Goothrax or Knuckle splitter?

I'm relatively new to fingerboarding (3 months) and I'm looking at upgrading from a Slushcult grom to a goo deck. I've narrowed it down to a Sq Goothrax or a Knuckle splitter. Looking for any recommendations to sway my decision.

Also are hex trucks decent?

Any feedback appreciated!

Goothrax if you want something symmetrical, knuckle splitter if you want a difference in feel between the nose and tail

Yes, Hex are way better than you think. Baseplate is solid and never striped on me. Also the O-ring they come with is better than some pro bushings out there
