TRAMPA IR Twin Main Pin Skid Plate Truck

This happened at the Onsra Open race Saturday. Not my board. They bent it back with a tube and the race was continued.

I didn’t even see the guy crash, but even if he did, the board could have only bumped into car tires

Edit: I think the reason why it could have happened was the excessive leaning that happens when racing on a gokart track. If that was indeed the case, consider opening up the kingpin hole slightly more.

Here’s the roadside bushing removed and the hanger fully locked up on the kingpin:

I can’t lean anywhere close to that, but might be possible with bindings and really soft bushings.

Potato quality because I graduated the “Gill Bordon School of Photography and Fine Arts”.

Yeah idk. Looks like a lot of lean. But on a gokart track with tight hairpins, going fast in bindings, it might be possible. Especially as his wheelbase was longer than usual, which likely required compensating with softer bushings. And he did have bindings. And a super wide deck too

The lean you need when racing on gokart tracks really is insane
