In this skate tutorial I break down how to put trucks on a skateboard from start to finish, so you can get your setup rolling the right way. I’m going over what parts you need, how to line everything up, and the basic order of operations so you’re not fighting your hardware the whole time. If you’re building your first board or swapping parts, this is the exact process I use. I also share the gear I’m currently riding and the stuff I personally recommend if you’re trying to progress without wasting money on sketchy parts. I’m partnered with Tactics Skate Shop, and the main reason I link everything is because it’s a reputable site that I actually shop from. If you want a simple option, I also point you to beginner complete skateboards so you can skip the guesswork and just focus on learning tricks and getting comfortable at the skatepark.
