Someone did that. If I can find it again, I’ll drop it here.

What was the question again?

Wasn’t really a question, but have you seen such small trucks with steering arms before?

What do you think of these? The top one being a much cleaner design, but the bottom one having an interesting suspension aspect that looks crappy but unique.

I’ve stumbled across the fist one when I was looking for inspiration, the front truck is cool.
I’m not fond of 3sk8 (as you call it) reminds me of my daughter’s toy :wink:

Seems to have been pretty early Eskate.
Pretty crazy how sophisticated and well executed it is for how early it probably was.

This whole time I could have just reversed my tkp trucks to get rkp!?!?

Do you think that remote is for sale

Yeah I’m curious about what’s going on with the truck reversal lol

Obviously, that vicious thing is built for speed, reversing the TKP reduces speed wobbles.

Time to bump this thread with another shitty board (non electric) that was in my recommended feed:

I just don’t understand why he went through the trouble of filing all those washers for THAT. He clearly bought new trucks… a set of proper wheels wouldn’t cost that much more.

The lack of locknuts on the trucks is the worst part.

What is that test footage???
