Skateboard Trucks – Stability, Turning and Control

Trucks are the heart of your skateboard setup and affect how your board turns, feels during tricks, carves and how stable it is at higher speeds. At Boardwalk you’ll find skateboard trucks from brands like Independent, Thunder, Ace and Lurpiv – all known for their durability and responsive feel.

We offer several different models, from classic polished trucks to lighter hollow and titanium versions. Whether you skate street, park or ramp, you’ll find trucks that fit your setup.

Truck width should match the width of your skateboard deck for the best balance and control.

If you prefer a ready-to-ride setup instead, you can also check out our complete skateboards.

What size skateboard trucks should you choose?

To keep your skateboard balanced, the truck width should match the width of your skateboard deck as closely as possible. Different truck brands use different sizing systems, which means the same deck width may correspond to different truck size names depending on the brand.

Below you’ll find size charts for some of the most common truck brands. If you’re unsure which size fits your setup, you can always visit our store in Lund or contact us for advice.

Low, Standard or Hollow trucks

Skateboard trucks come in different heights and constructions.

Low trucks
Lower trucks provide better control for technical tricks and are often paired with smaller wheels (50–53 mm).

Standard trucks
The most common height and suitable for both street and park skating.

Hollow and Titanium trucks
Lighter trucks with hollow axles or titanium axles reduce weight without compromising strength.

Truck height should also work well with the size of your skateboard wheels. For wheels larger than 56 mm you will usually need riser pads between the truck and the deck. Riser pads can be found under More Accessories.
