want to change out trucks on my board as bit worn out and stiff..


is there some recomendations on best sort for kiting

will be using with trampa short deck.

was thinking matrix trucks

but would prefer skate trucks for the ease of maintnance.

Give Spiglord a PM he will be able to help you find what you need.

Three general types of truck used in Kite Landboarding:- Skate / Channel / Revo

- Skate are simple, cheap, light and easily maintained, but are prone to wear and speedwobble - Channel are still quite light, tough, more complex, more expensive and take a little maintenance, but are very stable at speed. - Revos are very light, almost maintenance free, stable, very expensive and impossible to find in New Zealand.

Not impossible, jus hard to find.
I brought 4 sets over 2 years ago. I think 3 of these sets are still in NZ. Madmatt Cochrane has a set, as did Joe and Swartdrakk, (i think)...
If you want some over there i may be able to help if i come back soon.

P.S. ... The best trucks out there at the mo are D-EX Genesis E Types...

Trust me..... theyre indestructable, have titanium axles and carve like a skate truck..... Its the only way...

Che to the che

BUTCH

ahhhhh im drawling :cry: why do the pomys have all nice nice kit'

any one know if there any revos that they want to sell.?? lol

have a question do all skate trucks have 8mm axles??

think my channels are just old and worn out, not into speed more just freestyle.

ask spig'' he will point you in the drection there.

Im thinking of selling my

Trampa with revos , 5 spoke hubs , light tyre and top end bindings

But only for the right price...

I have a v10 that sometimes comes out for a go the revos have never speed wobbled and are super smooth. Revos can be upgraded to the DEX specs , personally i am sticking with the original brand as you would need a totally different deck for the nxs.

a bit higher than that

if you have a channel truck deck, you will not be able to fit sk8 trucks straight on to it. the decks have different angles, 35 for a channel truck deck and i think 15? on a sk8 deck. they have different bearing as well so you cant swap wheels.

matrix trucks are good, but you need to watch out for rust, if you use them at the beach

what trucks have you got? it might just be best rebuilding them!?

Hey Jimmy22,
So youre finally selling it eh? And jus when everyone over there is saying you cant get them. I hope you sell it quick. Its not the sort of board to leave in the back of a cupboard.

Snap this up guys. It was hand delivered to NZ by myself and is awesome.

Get in there
