where can i buy super small trucks?

Nobody That Made Makeshift Boards Back Then Had Plans. They Got What They Needed, Put It Together And Thrash The Crap Out Of Whatever They Could Before The Hardware Would Break.

GO TO THE TRACKER TRUCKS WEB SITE. THEY HAVE A LOT OF NEW AND OLD SCHOOL TRUCKS FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF SKATING. I PERSONALLY LIKE ALL OF THEIR TRUCKS. IF YOU CAN FIND OLD INDYS THAT WOULD BE AWSOME. YOU SHOULD PROBABLY USE SOLID OAK MAN IF YOU WANT TO MAKE A BOARD THAT WILL SURVIVE. PLY IS NOT THE GREATEST.
