| Who would prefer decks with kingpins or decks without kingpin holes drilled? |

| most trucks nowadays are made flat, so kingpin holes arent entirely necessary, but still come in handy on rare occasions. |

| I personally don't like them because on some of my Brt's, the kingpin slips and goes down into the kingpin hole. It's just unnecessary these days. |

| I like them for some decks.. so my y-trucks can be tightened down so the kingpin isn't sticking up so far. |

| it just depends if the trucks will fit on your deck nicely or not.
if you have a pair of trucks and the king pin budges out and you need king pin holes drilled in your deck then well......... you need king pin holes drilled
if all trucks didn't have protruding kingpins coming out of the base of their trucks then king pin holes wouldn't be necessary
i would like to use the condom analogy with this one.
id rather have a condom on me and not need it than to need one and not have it.
id rather have king pin holes drilled into my deck and not need it than to need king pin holes and not have them. |

| Lol to the last 3 comments haha. But seriously guys should I bring back kingpins and put them in my decks or no? IM thinking no, because the generation of FB has made a huge switch into BRR Trucks and Ytrucks. IS that a true statement? And I also think TD has made the baseplates flat as well |

Like I said its awesome for y-trucks. but you don't have to do it. its your choice if you wanna take that extra step to make the holes. |
