			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whether you&rsquo;re a beginning skateboarder or an expert who has been skateboarding for years, you may get to the point where you want to build a custom skateboard. This can be complex, and it involves putting together a variety of different pieces. One of these major pieces is the truck. <a href="http://www.zephyrsports.com/category/skateboard_gear.skateboard_trucks/">Skateboard trucks</a> are some of the most important pieces of equipment for your new skateboard, and learning the details of what makes up a truck will help you choose the right one for your custom skateboard.</p>
<p>Basically, this piece of your board is the one that is like an axel that connects your wheels to the skateboard&rsquo;s deck. Trucks come in many different sizes and with many different specifications. They can be a fun way to dress up your board, since they come in different colors and designs.</p>
<p>However, the trucks for skateboards come with different specifications, including different widths and heights. Plus, they have bushings, which are rubber donut-like parts that maintain cushioning in the skateboard when it turns. Bushings come in different cushioning options, and the different options offer different advantages and disadvantages.</p>
<p>Choosing the right truck for your skateboard will make all the difference in what you can do with it. For instance, a truck with soft bushings will be easy to turn, but it will make the skateboard very tricky. A truck with a low height can easily be flipped, and ones with a high truck can take larger wheels and help you go faster or for longer distances.</p>
<p>Although you might want to choose a truck for your skateboard just because of its color or design, you should definitely spend some time thinking about the specifics of your truck. These should help you find the right truck so that you can do what you want with your skateboard.</p>
