| Yeah, I'd be interested in truck width too. It's occurred to me that some people ride with different widths and I get confused at why they would do that. Also, in every generation of Close Up complete boards, the decks and trucks never have the same width. Here's an example already. - Tim Lowery wrote:

If you have a "regular" width deck, 25-26mm, then "regular" 25mm trucks are suited to them. If you've got a "wide deck", 28-31mm, then 29mm "wide" trucks are suited to those. People with extra wide decks use normal wide trucks or TD longboard 32-33mm trucks. I think stability does add to it but I think what's more important is that the wheels are in a suitable position close to the edges of the deck so that it doesn't make it weird for doing flip tricks. If you just have a cruiser deck, then it's not important. |
