Fun fact: Wobbles come from the loose back trucks. Tightening your back trucks just a little bit will eliminate wobbles and dont over tight your trucks as it will lead to less control👍

how much should i thighten my trucks? im struggling with it. i dont do downhill tho i have a cruiser and i use it to go around the city but i dont knkw how much tight my trucks should be. My actual trucks can be wobbled easly like if i turn the skate upside down and touch the trucks or shake the table i can see them wobbling i think i should tighten em since i cant stand still on the table without turning liiiiittle bit but i dont know how much, any tips? like should the wobble a little bit or should they stand perfectly still and absolutly dont wobble?

The irony is so thick here. If I’d just known then how to adjust my trucks, then I wouldn’t have had the speed wobbles… that caused me to crash…into a truck! DOH!!! I will never forget the school bus that slowly cruised by just after my crash, nor the faces of the children who witnessed my bloody accident…and whose maniacal laughter have since haunted my dreams. Kids can be so cruel. 😫 Great video, though.

Damn! thanks for this. And as i got new bushings because my old ones got damaged pretty badly. So when i put my new ones n started riding i couldn't ride it as it was just moving on right side n wasn't stable at all even when i was starting with kicking it. Is it also because i havn't tightened my trucks well?

The type of truck is essential. If you want to go to the park and trick ride standard trucks great. But fast down hills ( keep out of sand ) Trust me on that. Reverse mount the only way. May not turn as well, more linear turning but speed great. Can't make he tight bend , slide . Keep away from double king pin unless you want a serious carve .

does truck length contribute to speed wobble? i have an 8x28" deck which is an electric skateboard.. current truck size is 10.5" axle and i am planning to upgrade the trucks to paris v3 but i just can't decide if i should get 180mm or 165mm.. what do you recon? i want to have stability and nimble carving
@AroniDeliquint
4 жыл бұрын
Yeah, a bigger wheelbase is generally more stable. That deck would give you wobbles as you get up past 30mph. Wouldn't recommend it for speeds faster than 20mph. 165mm or 150mm even, would fit better on the 8inch width.
