I rock a Landyachtz Super Chief 36" Pintail with 150mm Paris V3 Trucks, Bones Red Race Bearings and 70mm Orangatang Stimulus Wheels set up perfectly for casual and fun carving and surf style cruising hella recommend it
Best decks in the world especially for heavy riders I have broken manywell kniwn brands (one aponserd me so wont name the other is loaded Snap, sag, poor glue and water intake I had a landyachtz fir ten years dis ober 20000 miles on it Got stolen Cant remember what this one is called but its a big carver I could do with another inch but love it
This allows you to completely tighten the wheels withouth deformities on ither the wheel or the barrings. How on the video he had to loosen up the wheel because it would not spin properly
You are correct spacers are pretty much a must no clue why he didn't add them in the video , and yes anti sink washers or " truck plates " are pretty much needed if you don't wanna pressure crack a drop thru that board how it's currently set up won't last long before it starts to crack
For drop-throughs and lowriders, does the width of the trucks have to match the width of the deck or can it be larger? Can the wheels stick out farther than the board?
There are 2 things I can think of: is your board a bamboo board? They flex a lot. If you have a normal maple board, then maybe you are too heavy and you need a thicker board. I weight 270 lbs and I use a 7ply maple board and it flexes very little.
Yeah trucks for longboards are more specific compared to skateboards.Our trucks are reversed kingpins, so it they all primarily work with most of our longboards, but we do have various sizes as well. Let us know if you have any specific questions
Well, risers go underneath your trucks to make them more elevated/taller. Risers really help to prevent wheel bite when using larger wheels. (stops the board from hitting the wheel when turning). If your thinking of putting longboard wheels onto a skateboard or smaller sized board you'll definitely need some type of riser. Not all longboards need risers, but if a board does, the place selling you the longboard will most likely tell you that it needs them / comes with risers. Hope this helps!
This is really late but, I was wondering what type of board will be best for a cruising/small/minor downhill boards, basically a good board to make quick easy turns and that’s good and stable enough for casual downhill
Good start but a couple of key points 1 bearing spacers 2 drop-thru board washers on the hardware or a " truck plate " that boards not gonna last 6 months before it starts pressure cracking 3 outa of the 23 years of professional downhill ( ex s9 team rider, motion board shop team rider, landyachtz team rider, zealous team rider, baker and creature team rider, and current team rider for jacks board house ) riding iv never heard of a single person refer the kingpin bolt or axel nut as a " lug nut" 4 that an RKPT aka reverse kingpin truck not " our trucks " the skate truck he referred to in the video is a TKPT traditional kingpin truck aka standard kingpin 5 that's called a hanger and baseplate the ball on the end is called a pivot as it go's in the pivot cup. And plz show this dude how to tighten a truck correctly he just mushroomed that cone bushing as a demo instead of showing these kids how to swap out for a harder bushing. if you are going to be legit and show kids how to set a board up plz do it right! Yes, this video got the main goal set up correctly however the way its set up is asking to have a kid get hard from a bearing to blow out on the way to school or stress cracking the deck he just got for his bday, Xmas or saved up his/her chore money for only to have it break from cracking or get hurt from a bearing popping then have that same kid trash talk and get made about the sport that's how this sport dyes VS getting kids into skateboarding correctly. Iv ridden with, trained, and mentored thousands of kids, and set up hundreds of events over the years to get kids into this sport. ( pro tip file the bearing seat you won't have the bearing lock up and stay stuck to the axle as you did in the video trying to get the wheel on lol) Feel free to watch the video we did on how to set up a drop thru deck on originalhowtoo channel it's a bit old being that was 11 years ago hahah here's a link ua-cam.com/video/rP88GGn2MMc/v-deo.html On the upside props on the video, it is a very clean set up and the angles are good!! Mad props there not many can actually do that so great job there. Lighting is great and the shots are clear! Lastly take my advice, try again, and you have a clean proper how-too video for these kids yes I know your a small company selling cruisers but still.... Good luck and look forward to skating with yall sooner or later or at an event !
Best placement? It should just be where the nuts and bolts are located. Or if you have a unique deck shape, you might have to experiment what works for you
I remain thankful for this video and the community in the comments section...
Honestly best tutorial I've seen
Welp buying from you😂 I’ve been looking for a longboard that I like and one that has a guide love t got yourself a sale
Well done- excellent information.
Very helpful information. Love the video!

You forgot the spacer between the 2 barrings its really important for the performance, speed and life of the barrings
Each wheel has to have a spacer for the barings
This allows you to completely tighten the wheels withouth deformities on ither the wheel or the barrings. How on the video he had to loosen up the wheel because it would not spin properly
Agreed. Especially on long boards where higher speeds on long runs are the goal
Yes is real! I don't believe this guy don't make this!
You mean the speed rings? Lol. He talked about that
Thank you for this!
Love the tutorial, I would recommend using shorter hardware for the drop through boards. Other than that good job.
Thanks for the feedback, sorry for the 8 month delay lol
Great Video!
Thanks! Let us know any questions
Aye you’re the star wars guy omg dude that’s so cool to see ya here
Lol found me out, you did
very very good, informative and didactic video, ty
Great tutorial! :)
Glad you liked it!
The jokes on the bearing container really made my day
Thanks man
Quality boards.
Thank you for the support!
Good job
Thank you!
Dude video was super helpful 🤙🏽
Helpful
Glad you think so!
I have pintail Longboard!🛹❤️
4:10 - could you please explain what's the riding experience is when installing the trucks in reverse on a longboard...
If you have spacers you can tight it I guess.
I think anti-sink bracket is needed on the drop through or maybe not
You are correct spacers are pretty much a must no clue why he didn't add them in the video , and yes anti sink washers or " truck plates " are pretty much needed if you don't wanna pressure crack a drop thru that board how it's currently set up won't last long before it starts to crack
12:42 you should put a washer, the lug nut would bore into the wood in time without it.🎉
For drop-throughs and lowriders, does the width of the trucks have to match the width of the deck or can it be larger? Can the wheels stick out farther than the board?
🤙🏼👌🏼🤙🏼
Speed rings , spacers , normally referred to as a washer.
Great point! We'll be updating this very soon. Keep an eye out
I have a question why does my longboard bend so much that it almost touches the ground and when I turn it does scrape the ground
There are 2 things I can think of: is your board a bamboo board? They flex a lot. If you have a normal maple board, then maybe you are too heavy and you need a thicker board. I weight 270 lbs and I use a 7ply maple board and it flexes very little.
are these always facing outwards? how do you know? i got paris 180 longboard trucks on a cruiser board
Confused don’t you need 2 bearings per each side of the truck?
Do you need any specific trucks for longboards?
Yeah trucks for longboards are more specific compared to skateboards.Our trucks are reversed kingpins, so it they all primarily work with most of our longboards, but we do have various sizes as well. Let us know if you have any specific questions
Weird Question:
Do 120 cloud wheels fit a dropdown?
Not knew to skating knew yo building my own skateboard so what does a spacer/riser do?
Well, risers go underneath your trucks to make them more elevated/taller. Risers really help to prevent wheel bite when using larger wheels. (stops the board from hitting the wheel when turning). If your thinking of putting longboard wheels onto a skateboard or smaller sized board you'll definitely need some type of riser.

Hope this helps!
This is really late but, I was wondering what type of board will be best for a cruising/small/minor downhill boards, basically a good board to make quick easy turns and that’s good and stable enough for casual downhill
We'd recommend a slimkick (light and smaller than typical longboard), or mini cruisers (small and easy to control) . Let us know any more questions
So just verifying, on the second board you still use spacers? Learning to ride and I'm currently building a longboard for my girlfriend.
Is the kicktail good for cruising?
Grace Caldwell yes, kicktail and pintail is the best for cruising.
@@dusanbanjac4071 love the pintail😍
Could the kick tail be used for freestyle riding?
Yes, the kicktail can be used for freestyle. Although having the kicktail might have it's advantages and limitations, depending on how you use it.
Great vid, I was thinking of buying the slim kick, how would it preform with small hills?
that should work great! It is big enough for most feet width wise
Good start but a couple of key points
1 bearing spacers
2 drop-thru board washers on the hardware or a " truck plate " that boards not gonna last 6 months before it starts pressure cracking
3 outa of the 23 years of professional downhill ( ex s9 team rider, motion board shop team rider, landyachtz team rider, zealous team rider, baker and creature team rider, and current team rider for jacks board house ) riding iv never heard of a single person refer the kingpin bolt or axel nut as a " lug nut"
4 that an RKPT aka reverse kingpin truck not " our trucks " the skate truck he referred to in the video is a TKPT traditional kingpin truck aka standard kingpin
5 that's called a hanger and baseplate the ball on the end is called a pivot as it go's in the pivot cup.
And plz show this dude how to tighten a truck correctly he just mushroomed that cone bushing as a demo instead of showing these kids how to swap out for a harder bushing. if you are going to be legit and show kids how to set a board up plz do it right!

4:11 what determines which direction it's supposed to face? I don't know how I should put mine
do you know what type of trucks you have?
It depends on what trucks you got. Did you buy a complete from us? or different brand?
@@YOCAHERSKATEBOARDS they're drop throughs, I got it from somewhere else though
Do any of you know the best placement for my trucks???
Best placement? It should just be where the nuts and bolts are located. Or if you have a unique deck shape, you might have to experiment what works for you
If you don't use any washer, the nut will over the time dig itself into the wood of the board.
Hey, it's datboi7939
Yo what's hattnin
I drill all my trucks and decks out to metric M6 so i can slap this big wheels on
The drop through trucks are the same as other normal trucks right ?
Yes, they're the same as the normal trucks. They're just installed differently
Candy Sour Micro
Countersunk screws not countersunk
this company is the best fake longboard company lol probably would use for a rainskate or for my sibligns xmas/birthday present lol good vid tho
My name's brodie
This is almost as simple as building a pc lol
I'm your big fan pleas sponsor me please please po
Can you give me a longboard
Please sponsor me please please
You should make a video on angled risers 🤙 @1993akevinodyssey
That would be interesting. Thanks 🙏
