Skateboard Trucks

Skateboard trucks come in a variety of styles designed for different riding disciplines. Traditional trucks with relatively low profiles and geometry tuned for street skating provide a nice balance of turning, stability, and grind ability. Wide trucks with taller profiles and different baseplate angles offer more lean and carvability ideal for transition and bowl skating. Niner/indie trucks with a 9" axle width provide extra stability for larger boards favored by downhill skaters and cruisers. Precision trucks utilize finely machined and calibrated components for a silky smooth turning feel prized by technical street skaters. Some specialized slalom trucks even incorporate advanced features like integrated turning spheres for an ultra-tight, responsive turning radius. From the classic short/wide street trucks to tall/narrow shapes built for vert riding, skaters can select truck designs that maximize performance and feel for their particular skateboarding style.
