Can’t recall, but has anyone mentioned board length and flexibility having an effect? The longer the board, the bigger the turning circle, because we’re not talking about the turning circle of one truck like above, but the combined of both. Also the difference in angle between them, and the drag effect on wheels not at the same angle due to board length and flexibility.

i cut down my Calibers by about 1" a few weeks ago and they feel more stable on my daily commute hill, same baseplate angle, rubbers…
disclaimer* the feels cannot be quantified scientifically

Am I the only one to ride different wheels base on the front and rear…fox ex. My hubs setup is wider on the front and one of my belt setup the opposite wider on the rear …I feel the both better that way. The belt is more precise and the hubs feels more stable on the curve and the speed…

Lower centre of gravity more stable. Wider trucks just get in the way and look stupid like the 14" DKP showing up some china skates. They Also effect your ability to tight turn. I do like my 10" calibres.
No, I run wider rear than front on some skates.
