Haha did somethings stupid.

I really don't know what I was thinking, but I accidentally mounted my trucks backwards (pin facing in) last night. Hopped on my board this morning, leaned left to dodge a car, board turned right cuz of the improper mounting.

Wow that could have been deadly!

Ha, I did that on purpose once to see what it was like. It was insanely hard

[Momona Boe]

I've done it too

And you always fall sooooooo hard when you do it!

Well luckily I tend to lean as I push off (a bad habit that probably saved me from serious injury today), so right away I wobbled off the board and jogged after it. It took two more tries before I figured out the problem.

[marv]

if the truck is backwards then you turn the oppisite way?

wow, i always thought that was just an urban leagend, maybe i will have to try it and find out for myself....

[bradjones007]

Yeah...I did that, too, on the first set of trucks I ever mounted. It has to do with how the truck rotates around the kingpin. (I got super curious after I did it and took my trucks apart to figure out how they worked!)

Recently I say a complete in a dedicated skate shop set up that way.
Can you say liability?
