Trucks!

[Wheez]

I currently have gullwing mission 1s on my board, and I'm thinking of changing it up a bit. I would like a pair of trucks that were lower to the ground, are wider, and relatively lightweight. I ride an Arbor Pin, so I'm also afraid of a little wheel bite.

I thought about just switching the bushings out for now since there is really nothing wrong with them, but is there a better freeride truck? or what do i LOOK for when just freeriding? I get wobs sometimes, but I feel like that's all just in my head. If you can't tell, I am pretty new to this.

Any advice?

Mission 1's are already pretty low trucks. I would suggest new bushings.

Mission 1's take a barrel/short cone combo.

Angled risers might help. Both narrow ends forward (wedged/dewedged).

He said it. And the wobbles aren't in your head, they're probably in your feet. Bend your knees, absorb the shocks, and take some deep breaths if you start to lose it.

I'll try that! What does width do for me? Stability/control wise. Does it even matter at my level?

I mean that I could control them if I really just concentrated. Sometimes I take massive hills like a champ, but as soon as I see a potential threat my legs turn into marshmallows haha. all with practice of course.
