About Mid Height Trucks
Mid height trucks are excellent for all styles of skating and are suitable for wheel sizes up to 56mm without using riser pads. For wheels over 56mm it is recommended to add riser pads or move up to a high truck to prevent wheel bite.
Truck Height Overview
Truck height is the distance between the bottom of the skate deck and the hanger. In general, a mid-sized truck works well for most skateboarders, but high or low trucks may be preferred under these circumstances:
Low: Provides extra stability for flip tricks. Designed for small wheels (up to 53mm).
High: Great for cruising and carving. Designed for large wheels (56mm+).
When choosing between high and low trucks you want to consider the type of skating you do the most. High trucks are good for vert ramps and bowls where low trucks have a lower center of gravity and are good for street skating and doing flip tricks.
