First DIY! LOOKING for criticism and opinions

We’ve been working on making some great skateboard products, but we’re hitting some design bottlenecks right now.

what are your thoughts on them? Are there any areas that could be improved? Let me know if you have any better suggestions so I can try to make a product out of it.

Why did you choose the angles and design you did? What benefit does it give?

This stuff looks really interesting! Will look forwards to seeing it in use.

#10

These are pretty awesome looking aesthetics wise. What’s the approx weight on this? That hanger looks pretty heavy

This stuff looks awesome, however the best way to get feedback is to let members of the community test it out. It looks great, but performance and durability are pretty much unknown from looking at these.

I’ve broken a few sets of trucks the way I ride, send a set this way if you want them battle tested.

aesthetically pleasing, untested hardware? cool. who do you work for, exactly?

For the channel trucks, almost everyone’s moved on from springs to polyurethane bushings. Far more customizable, and aren’t subject to oscillation since the bushings are naturally damping.

Maybe a friend of Newbee? Idk really, good question though, there’s a lot of engineering hours here

Getting a little tired of the “no one is going to buy unless you give some out to testers” dynamic.

I’ve seen the same parts on Reddit from someone in Hainan, so it’s probably related. Channel trucks appear to be made by “Linn”, which I haven’t heard from before.

It is a bit old now but that’s the attitude of the forum lately
