great alternative to the new Independent trucks
de Stefan, Blue Tomato Shop Oslo, Blue Tomato, 8 jul 2022
Hi my name is Stefan and i do skate since 98. I do ride mostly miniramp and bowl and boards between 8,35" to 9". I was looking for a new truck with inverted kingpin to check the improved clearance for grinds. I use them on a 8,75" board (Madness Ace Card).
I rode them in a few local parks now and the only downside I experienced so far is, that the bushings aren't good quality, same as in Indies. Once those are swapped to Bones Hardcore, the truck turns nicely and smooth. The trucks are a bit lighter than standard Indies as well, and the little bit bigger kingpin clearance feels great when doing smith grinds/ stalls etc. although I think trucks' native habitat is street skating
Great trucks with good potential, that just need the standard bushings swapped to turn better. I´m curious how they will do in the long rung vs. my Standard Kingpin trucks.
