So my first deck sux, it was an Element Fiberlight, with Destructo lows. I'm planning on upgrading but one thing I didn't like about my old one was the kingpin got in the way when I grind. I heard this was a problem with a lot of low trucks. Should I get mids or are there good low trucks that have a shorter kingpin?

Here's my new setup I'm planning on getting
Habitat Deck
Ricta Wheels - 54s if I get mids, 52s if I get lows
Bones Swiss Bearings
Black Magic Grip Tape

Tell me what u think

I had risers but I took them off cuz the pop was better. I don't know if it's the deck or the trucks' height, but I would prefer low. I was thinking Indy or Grind King. And should I get Mob griptape instead?

Nice! Get the 52 wheels. I suggest some Krux downlows. Habitat is sick, I had an Alien and there is monster pop.
