How to set up an LDP skateboard / longboard - Part 4 - The JIGGLE test - pavedwave.org

- Check for wheelbite before taking the board on the road. Push the wheels to max turn and check for clearance.
The "jiggle" test is done by either pushing the wheel to max turn by hand, then letting it go, or else by hitting the wheel with your fist or palm. The truck should SNAP back to the middle and JIGGLE a little bit.
Rear truck should have harder duro bushings, this is where you generate most of your forward moving power.
Front truck should turn easy but not be overly loose -- rebound is the key.

Time for a graphic EQ & re-upload.
@SuperWappie - typically bennett front tracker or seismic rear, wheels in 75mm range. Google "pavedwave forum" and read up on lots of other peoples setups for fine tuning. very helpful crew there!
@ThatReptileDude - i'm 165lbs and run medium to light up front and pretty hard bushings in back, regardless of bushing brand (running RipTides at the moment). lots of personal preference comes into play with bushings!
Very informative. Thanks a lot!
How are you enjoying those riptide? I tead a post on the forum but you didn't really give a comparison. Are they superior to khiros and reflex bushings?
Hey so what would be the ride difference between a short cone under the roadside barrel from a thick washer?
Please explain this: (thank you)
Those bushings are way under the usual 75 duro right? Would be 5O I guess.
Where do u get those? Are they custom made... like a piece of rubber tube cut for the purpose ooooor??? :) (I'm a quad skater customizing my stuff...and I definitively need to know your brilliant setup, thanks!!!!))
Those are riptides (riptidesports dot com) 80a orange and 75a green.
pavedwave Really? I never thought these were in the regular duro range.
I'm surprised. Thatnks for your reply!!! Keep on rolling!!!
my dog howls with the videos, i guess it's the pich sound lol
how did you close the gap between the truck and the wedge at the front of the board?
Why the softer bushing boardside? And, what pumping speed do you get out of it?
The theory is that the softer boardside bushing absorbs most of the initial energy, making it easier to initiate each turn, then as the turn progresses, the harder roadside bushing increasingly compresses, then when it reaches max compression it rebounds hard to re-center the hangar again.
I wanna make from my cruiser a LDP ( good pumping ) board.
I have the Globe VB cruiser.
what kind a trucks ( bennett ),riser pads, bushings, wheels do i need??
Please help me as good as possible.
THANKS,sorry for my bad englis,i m from Holland,the Netherlands
@SuperWappie Bennet Truck for the front/Tracker RTS for the back .
don't you want the back to always have contact with the road on both wheels? i can see the back lifting up on one side cause theyre too tight
A good way to avoid back wheels lifting is just to shift your weight (+ rear foot) back on the board.
@@pavedwave will the tight truck at the back limit your turning at front? or is it tighter due to the lower angle and therefore greater leverage
@@chubeviewer It only restricts your turn in a positive, forward-moving way. Taking out turn in the rear does reduce the carving feel, so if you were purely downhilling, you'd find it a little harder to shave speed simply by turning. Overall it's going to add power as you jam energy into the rear truck and get more return out of it.
Dude I dont know who told you that info but they lied to you bad! your trucks shouldn't jiggle in any way shape or form!
the bushing are so soft they jiggle, not because the trcuks are loose, because the bushings are so soft
