At Slam we pride ourselves with being able to offer any skateboard product that is available. We sell all makes of truck but by far the best selling are Independent, Thunder and Venture. There are many other trucks out there but they are all basically poor copies of one of the above mentioned. It is possible that 95% of all skateboarders ride one of these brands, for this simple reason: they are the best!

Independent
Indys are the best turning, best grinding and strongest trucks that you can get. The new Stage 9 truck is the lightest ever made. With a new super strong kingpin and unbendable axles this truck is untouchable. Also available in a few colours but to be honest with you, if you get the raw ones you can use the money you saved to spray them any colour you want. Pro riders: Geoff Rowley (now official), Donny Barley, Andrew Reynolds, Rob Welsh, Brian Anderson, Vaughan Baker, Chris Pulman, Fos. (BUY NOW)


Thunder
Thunder trucks are the choice of the connoisseur. They have a slightly wider turning circle than Indys, which makes them a little more stable; this is why manual freaks like Marc Johnson ride them. The high version make a great alternative to Indys if you ride massive boards, like Ed Templeton. Pro Riders: Ed, John Rattray, Colin Kennedy, Marc Johnson, and Erik Ellington. (BUY NOW)



Venture
The lightest, most stable and lowest of the three; Ventures are often the choice of the tech block/flatground champion. A board mounted with ventures is so easy to learn new tricks on; it’s so light and responsive. Pro Riders: Dan Drehobl, Paul Shier, Nick Jensen, and Mike York. (BUY NOW)



Top Tech Tip:
If you find you are breaking a lot of kingpins, ask yourself this: Do you ride tight trucks? If the answer is yes, then the chances are you’re just tightening up the rubbers that came with the trucks. Unfortunately this changes the angle that the truck turns at and so puts unnecessary pressure on the kingpin. If you like tight trucks: change the rubbers you get with the trucks to a harder version and you should instantly notice a difference.
