My Review on Krux's and Habitat's

[Fabolous]

Alright y'all, i guess I'll do my first review on both Krux's Trucks and Habitat Decks.

Krux:These are some killer trucks. but for skating them i have found some con's and pro's on them(i have used Downlows and III)
Pro's:These trucks you well find that are pretty light and the design on how you tighten them up are awesome.
Con's:Axles, what more can i say? they bend so damn easy. So far i went though 2 pairs because how the Axel keeps bending while doing powerslides and other tricks that require you to turn hard on.(you can't not replace the axles on these trucks)

Habitat's
Pro's:VERY LIGHT. awesome pop that well last you until the time to break the board
Con's:I have also went though 2 of these decks. and always broke in the *SAME* exact spot. i notice this after breaking both decks after doing a simple FS 180, the head of the board cracks really easy

deja vu i had the same nearly but different stuff.

i went thru 2 pairs of indys becuase the axle kept of bending.

my plan b 3 decks i had so far broke towards the bolts toward the corner

my krux did the same thing too..

i have a habitat but haven't tried it..

[Dookie416]

so far i THINK my downlows are doing good. how do you know if they are bent?(like if it's visually unnoticeable, can you feel it or something?)

also i really wanna try a habitat.

Cheers bro, thinking of picking some krux up today.

Yeah I'd like to read more reviews about products people have owned, it helps a well-rounded skater as well as a beginner.

You're gonna notice that somethings wrong when you're cruising, it doesn't go smooth, then you'll notice it after that one of the axles are bent

i like the downlows but the only thing i dont like is once theyre stripped your screwed and they cant go as tight as other trucks with bolts....

yeah, it's like the kingping tightening system is very sensitive. if you do one half turn loose the trucks will be super loose, and one half turn tight they will be very tight, well, for the light-weight people like myself. see, if you don't know already, the allen key head is attatched to the kingpin, and under the base is a kingpin bolt, and you screw it on like that. it's like an upside down kingpin. pretty cool idea if you ask me, although, instead of an allen key head i'd prefer a standard kingpin bolt head, kinda like what silver trucks have.

there's 2 ways of finding if there bent.
1.you can just look at them
2.push it on a smooth road and see if it turns outta no where
and for habitats. there the same exact thing as a AWS board just with more curve to it on both ends.(made by the same company)

And yea i think i am done using krux for a while, i am getting tired of them bending on me. Witch sucks because those are some light trucks that are really high quality. Next I'll be trying out thunders see for my self how good those are.

All i have to say is "Well done." Your doing what your supposed to do on this forum. Write reviews and comment reviews.

Nice work man.

[toy machine hoa]

my kingpin broke on my krux and i couldnt get it out cuz the way i bent it.

That is the most untrue statement I have heard on this forum.
Yet.
Be embarressed.

[Dookie416]

china skate - 3

How similar are Habitat and AWS? I know they're from the same company but yeah.

the only differences that i have seen (from a friends board) that habitat(my board) had more curve then a AWS board. other then that, i couldn't find anything.
