Gullwing mission longboard trucks

Gullwing mission longboard trucks are great for anyone that likes riding a traditional truck as compared to a reverse kingpin, the only real difference being that a reverse kingpin is more responsive, and a traditional truck generally takes a little more oomph (yes I said oomph) to turn but some people like the lack of sensitivity, because a lot of people over exaggerate the power they put into turning (this isn't a bad thing, it's all a matter of preference and personal comfort).

Gullwing Charger longboard trucks

  Gullwing Charger longboard trucks are for those who want to take to carving the hills, while they don't have the stability to make the straight shots they're really responsive and the extra wider hangers make for smooth turns and stability when you're cutting into your turns. They come with Gullwings standard bushings which most people don't even replace because they love the responsiveness and how well the stock bushings return to center.

 Not only are these puppies made in the US of A But for all of you carving fanatics out there, these are the longboard trucks for you. They're on a 50 degree baseplate so they're really responsive but the extra wide hangars make it just stable enough you can pick up speed to carve without getting wobbles. Also they can be flipped if you plan on taking some hills or doing slopestyle runs, as it makes them a little more stable when you're getting speed.

Gullwing alpine 10" trucks

The Gullwing Alpine is somewhat of an original longboard truck, when it comes to design at least. Although they aren't my go to truck, they don't fit my style either, they're more of a cruising/carving truck, they're apparently awesome for dancing too. A lot of people prefer them over newer brands and while I don't own many Gullwing products, the ones I DO have are in excellent condition and I've had them for quite some time and not because I haven't ridden them.

Caliber 10" 44 degree longboard truck

 
  These are what I use personally, and they're built especially for downhill racing. While a lot of people find them to be "dead" it's simply not the case I've found, they're set lower to the ground and you have to put more force into them to turn since they're less responsive but it's awesome when you're hitting a hill at 40 mph and you have to adjust your feet. That little bit of leeway is more than enough to adjust without sending you flying. They use the same double barrel blood orange bushing combo as the 50's and can of course be swapped with almost any brand of bushing because caliber longboard trucks are rad like that.

Caliber 10" 50 degree longboard truck

   50 Caliber trucks (Calibrahs, calibros, etc. amongst friends)  are my personal favorite especially when it comes to downhill riding and freeride. However there are better options if you want to get into dancing, they carve good but if you want to get into freestlying at all they're a touch heavy. One thing about these compared to a lot of other trucks, is that they're amazingly durable, believe it or not, I put these on my ethos and I grind them constantly. These are definitely one the best cast longboard truck on the market right now just because of the non restrictive and highly compatible bushing seat.

Bear grizzly precision longboard trucks

 Now, unless you're absolutely sure you want these, you probably don't need them. However, if you want the most refined, durable, and overall most reliable truck than look no further than a set of Bear Precision Grizzly longboard trucks. The huge difference between these and a normal truck is they're not poured into a mold, they're cut to precise thousandth of an inch with a CNC cutter. They come with Aerospace grade titanium axles and kingpins which are 3 times as strong as normal metal and half the weight, also they're heat shrunk to have a permanent bond with the truck with absolutely no play between the parts. There's also no slop in the bushing seat and has little to no restriction but only to keep you stable on those hills. Lastly, but certainly not least one of the coolest components of these trucks is the interchangeable pivot cup which comes in multiple durometers for an ever more customized ride.
