Steps for Installing Skateboard Trucks

Connecting your deck to the wheels relies on skateboard trucks, making it crucial that they're assembled properly. If you're struggling with mounting skateboard trucks, have a look at this video guide to attach them to the deck. We'll guide you through the tools required and the various stages to ensure they're securely on your board:

1. Begin by using a tool or a nail to create small perforations in the grip tape from below the deck.
2. Turn the board over and use a small Allen key to enlarge the perforations.
3. Next, insert the screws through the deck.
4. Position the truck over the screws and press it in place.
5. Fasten the nuts using your fingers.
6. With a skate tool and screwdriver, securely fasten the truck.
7. Rotate the skate tool while maintaining the screwdriver in a fixed position. This prevents the screw's head from being stripped.

Repeat the steps for the second truck, and your trucks will be installed!
