Does anyone else use their Tech Deck riser pads on their actual setup? I've started doing it on mine and think it looks really good haha.
I don't know if it really makes any difference performance wise, but I find it is easier to mount the trucks as the kingpin can sink into the rubber of the pad meaning it doesn't scratch on your deck.

Riser pads isnt meant to protect the kingpin from scratching the bottom of the deck (not like that matters) Risers pads are meant to raise the trucks a bit higher from the deck for the people that like to ride really loose, thus preventing wheel-bite. I use them on my skateboard because I ride my 8.5 Indy's as loose as possible.

I don't really need them unless the bushings I am using or something in the trucks or wheels make the board ride too low. All my setups are without risers.
