Essentials Skateboard Trucks - Solid performance for every rider

The Essentials Skateboard Trucks come with everything you need for a reliable setup. These trucks are the perfect proof that quality doesn't have to be expensive—a well-thought-out aluminum-steel construction that both saves weight and provides the durability you need for skating.

With a truck height of 55mm, you'll find the perfect balance between stability and maneuverability. Whether you're just starting out or a seasoned skater, these trucks will give you the confidence you need for your sessions. The four available sizes, from 127mm (5") to 147mm (5.75"), cover all common deck widths, so you'll always find the perfect combination.

The aluminum material makes the trucks pleasantly light, while the steel components provide the necessary robustness. You'll especially notice the difference when grinding – the trucks glide smoothly over rails and ledges without losing precision. They're the ideal entry point for beginners, as they're forgiving yet offer enough response to develop your skills.

If you're planning a complete setup, pair the trucks with the KFD Moses Pro Progressive Skateboard for a versatile build. Jessup Original Griptape provides the necessary grip, while the Heart Supply Jagger Eaton Pro Deck adds the finishing touches to your setup.

Why this skateboard truck is the right choice

The Essentials trucks are a standout thanks to their versatility. Whether street, park, or simply cruising, these trucks can handle it all. The 55mm height prevents wheel bite on regular wheels, but still gives you enough clearance for responsive turns. This makes them perfect for riders who aren't tied to a specific style.

The build quality is solid and honest—no fancy features you don't need, just everything you need. The axles can be precisely adjusted and retain their settings even after tough sessions. For the price, you definitely get more performance than you'd expect.

Frequently asked questions about the Essentials Skateboard Truck

Which size Essentials skateboard truck fits my deck?

Choose 5" (127mm) for 7.5-7.75" decks, 5.25" (133mm) for 8-8.25" decks, 5.5" (139mm) for 8.25-8.5" decks, or 5.75" (147mm) for 8.5"+ decks. The truck should be about the same width as your deck.

Are the Essentials skateboard trucks suitable for beginners?

Yes, these trucks are perfect for beginners. They're forgiving, stable, and still offer enough response for learning. The 55mm height prevents wheel bite and makes riding safer for beginners.

How do I adjust the Essentials skateboard truck correctly?

Start with a medium stiffness bushing. Tighten the kingpin nut hand-tight and adjust accordingly: tighter for more stability at speed, looser for agile turns. Both axles should be set the same.

Can the Essentials skateboard trucks handle harder tricks?

Yes, the aluminum-steel construction is robust enough for street tricks and grinds. They may be affordable, but they're not cheaply made. There are special pro models for heavy-duty skating, but they're perfectly adequate for regular skating.

What is the difference between the Essentials axles and more expensive trucks?

More expensive trucks often offer better materials, more precise workmanship, and special features. The Essentials trucks focus on the essentials—solid, no-nonsense performance at a fair price.

Can I use the Essentials skateboard truck for bowl skating?

Yes, the 55mm height and sturdy construction are well-suited for bowl skating. For optimal bowl performance, you should adjust the bushings a bit tighter for more stability at higher speeds.
