| professional trucks, in my opinion, are worth the money. they feel so much better and nicer than regular tech deck trucks. |

| $60 is a lot of money for just about anyone but if you love the hobby then why not? Also unless you're in a really bad position I doubt $60 would've changed your life haha. I've had two pairs of BRTs and loved them both. |

| Man, don't be surprized if they don't last you forever. Mine broke relatively quickly. Just a warning, although I can't complain because I got them for free. |

| Don't worry about them breaking, that only happens on rare occasions. I've had both brt wides and ytrucks x4's and I can tell you they are some well made trucks. |

kids, thank your parents for hookin it up! Yeah, $60 is a bit steep when you're tight on money. I'm glad I have my parents, haha They shouldn't break easily, I heard awesome reviews about them! Let us know what you think of the trucks when you receive them |

There is a lot of stories about broken pro trucks on the forums, but you have to keep two things in mind. 1. No one would make a thread called "My Ytrucks didn't break yet". 2. Most of those who have problems with pro trucks are kids that doesn't know how to not ruin screw threads etc. When i ordered my sets of Ytrucks both of them came with fucked up holes in the baseplate, but it got sorted out fairly quick and i now have some great sets of trucks and i doubt they're gonna break on me. |
