Skateboard parts and assembly
skateboard buying guide to promote extreme sports as popular, more and more young people to join called Limit Extreme skateboarding movement. As the slide has a strong appreciation and learn the characteristics of many fans eager. The first thing is the election board. Skateboarding is normally provided by board, skateboard stand, skateboard wheels as the main component, is also part of the higher cost of good skateboarding generally requires its own configuration. There are several more parts such as bearings, sand paper, screws and other small objects.
1. Board (board):
slide the board, and is usually five, seven, nine-microwave cold plate made of maple. There are also aluminum, carbon fiber and other materials made of board. Now the board, the board is the end of the tilt of the first board. Personal favorite plate is 20cm * 81cm size, board head slightly rounded board. 22cm and above board, basically can be regarded as U pool board, and its board to accommodate the feet of the place more, it is more robust in the U Ikegami. 19cm around the board, mostly flat road conditions are used board, sub-class board coupled with small wheels, the movement to start a flexible, fast. In addition, the board of different companies, not the same foot depth of the nest. Some skaters like feet deep fossa plate, making it more convenient and flap-related actions, even when doing OLLIE stability.
2. Slide bracket (truck):
slide bracket, also known as Skateboard bridge (Truck), the bridge performance in the slide can not play almost as good or bad effect. Most of the U.S. are produced in a special aluminum alloy bridge, almost no more fault to happen. Skateboard bridge for the distance is different, there are 126mm, 129mm, 134mm, 139mm, 146mm and so on, different from the skateboard bridge bridge board with different width, making slide more flexible and easier to manipulate. The level of the bridge is different. Bridge suitable for relatively high loading big wheels, low bridge suitable for relatively small wheels fitted, so will slip up and more comfortable, but also less prone to fighting when the wheels encounter board bending or bent over the main result Bridge screw fracture.
INDY, VENTURE, DESTRUCTO, THUNDER, ORION, GRINDKING, TITAN (Nissan) and other bridges are good. INDY known as the king of the bridge, its quality is self-evident. VENTURE people in the United States is considerable with more. DESTRUCTO U.S. sales of the first bridge, but also my personal favorite bridge. DESTRUCTO doing a round bar sliding bridge action (eg, 50/50, 5 / 0, K-GRIND, etc.), it is smooth and does not drift around Cookin very stable. ORION's bridge PU pad violence is good, can be adjusted as tight as hard as rocks, and how to use them will not burst. GRINDKING bridge the lightest, but he was not very hard steel central axis, will jump more bend, but do not wear, just nail it pretty good the main bridge, is the kind of anti-installed. TITAN, according to friends that have seen very good, very beautiful, very light, and rust, but a little expensive than the average bridge.
3. Skateboard wheels (wheel):
skateboard wheels is a great stress on the. In addition to the precision bearings (such as ABEC1, ABEC3, ABEC5, ABEC7, etc.) depends on the speed of an impact on the performance of the wheel.
first hardness, skateboard wheels are usually rubbed polyurethane-based materials, polyurethane wheels occupy in the proportion of different hardness of the wheel is different. Hardness of 85A (A is the hardness) of the wheel is relatively soft, suitable for rough road glide, sliding sound when a very small pedal board like shopping for a friend is a good choice. But the 85A wheels, because the comparison is not so soft wear, but do like the skid when the brakes of the type of action is very easy to get broken interval level. General use hands now sliding wheels 97A-103A. Such hardness of the wheel not only for the smooth marble, and relatively flat surface, but also for U pool, diving platform, and other props. Smooth, such as 85A in the Office of the wheel, also no sound. But in rough Office and the U Ikegami, will issue a huge Long song (which sounds often wrench blood boiling). Transparent or translucent wheels not see Italy with 103A, too hard, there will be burst are best used only in all material props on WOOD.
followed ,38-40mm diameter wheels are now very few people use, and that the wheels start to accelerate faster, but the momentum is small, only suitable for very flat surface, and there is to do the movements very flexible, like the little trick of friends can try. 45mm-50mm wheels, is the most appropriate road-style wheels. Comparison of 52-60mm wheels for use at all in the props above. Because the props to do action require a strong driving force, the ground moves the lighter the better hope the board, and in the props on the board can sometimes lead to greater weight and impact force of inertia, so the higher your soared further. In the field, you can choose more than 60mm off-round. Professional mountain skateboard is the big rubber wheels.
there is a rebound, rebound wheels is very important. Although there is no argument can refer to. However, the stronger rebounding ability to block off the stronger. If you do not know how the performance of reaction wheel, you can do a little test. Remove the wheel bearings in your wheels Wangdeshangyi hard to throw,zero skateboards, high rebound wheel, the wheels will bounce to the ceiling, bounce the end of the wheel, only close to the floor thump twice. In the smooth ground, perhaps, two wheels can run as fast, but little experience in the rough road conditions, the superiority of the high rebound wheels, can immediately show out.
4. Accessories (accessories)
skateboard accessories are the main bearings, sand paper, screws, wrenches and other small objects. Bearings can be selected depending on the circumstances, the general import of the 10 yuan / month, made in China 5 yuan, you can prepare a few more. Sand paper is attached to slide the surface to increase friction for skaters to easily control the slide, Xinsha paper feel as sole adhesion on the skateboard. General with the wheels and screws, etc., together with the bridge, without special preparation.
in selected after a skateboard also need some other equipment, they can skateboard exercise.
1. Skateboard shoes:
skateboard shoes, good or bad, on the one hand for a good slider is also very important. In general, choose skateboarding shoes have a place to note the following.
※ intensity Board Shoes: skateboard shoes sole and upper material preferably polyurethane, the upper thick Fanmao best leather, this is somewhat resistant. Note that you usually OLLIE zone plate used when the location of the shoes, as far as possible in choosing shoes to avoid these locations when there is connection shoes, which prevents premature because the Board Shoes off line and scrapped. Now, CONVERS the new out of the Board Shoes, toe area has a \Board Shoes
※ comfort \, upper leather used is quite soft and do action can clearly feel the board when the plane close to the foot rather than sand. and do more fiercely moving the sliding hand selection generally more solid skateboard shoes. such as sole with air cushion or oil pad, tongue fairly robust, so dress up and feel more bound feet.
The skateboard shoe brand, it is much too much. including best-selling DC, VANS also support skateboarding for many years , there is still KASTEL, DEFFS, DVS, CONVERS, 2FISH, BIZO, ADIO, etc..
2. skateboard clothing:
mainly loose-based skateboard clothing, board hand most of them choose skateboard company HIPHOP T-shirt or clothing style. Some people think that skateboarding is against the mainstream, the need for some strange, in fact, a number of experts in an anti-skateboard culture of the original that skateboarding is a real sport, Tony Hawker (Tony. Hawk, U.S. skateboard star) is familiar with this rule, from the sports industry was worth millions of dollars each year. and he wanted an ordinary athlete.
3 Backpack:
skateboard backpack is a more general function. skaters can individual circumstances, consider a suitable size backpack. generally put a wrench in the package and other tools, some simple clothing, spare wheels and bearings and other spare parts, big enough Reload Board Shoes on a pair. Some skateboard package designed to tie in the bag can slide, the back up is more convenient, will not increase the size of the package. red syrup, the highest posts can be placed on the package pouch yard.
4. protector:
skateboard protective gear including helmets, knee pads, wrist (elbow), etc., recommended for beginners with, or make difficult the use of movement, generally in the race are required to wear protector.
※ helmet: a helmet is the perfect quality of your most important safety device, if you play skateboard car not wearing a helmet, scratched sprain can quickly restored, but the head injury would be extremely big impact on your life after.
※ knee: For knee is the most significant invention is the invention of plastic knee. kneepad shown in the figure is the ideal of a knee, in addition There are many good effects of knee, wearing a knee any better than not wearing knee pads.
※ Gloves: Gloves There are a variety of skateboard shape and size, some people in the U.S. and Japan Take motorcycle gloves When the slide gloves, gardening gloves, which was also replaced, the glove is ideal both hands together when they make your hands from injury in the fall.
※ wrist (elbow): and the same knee , a plastic wrist band is the best hat each wrist, and have many alternatives is the same function.
slide surface options:
board skateboard components can be said The most important part, and select what kind of board will affect your glide. So what kind of board is the best? It depends from which side you consider what kind of jump ---- maximum; which the most suitable slip (?); which the most durable ... let us look at several different types of board it.
board appearance is the most obvious feature is most aspects of technical content. When you are choosing one kind of shape, you must note that in several different ways: length, width, board head, the tail, and wheelbase. Today, most board's width from 7.5 to 8 inches, some narrow, some wide and some more,tech deck skateboards, but the difference up to half an inch. narrower easy to control the board and easy to flap (flip) the action the board, however, these wide fit in the U pool slide. board of 31-32.5 inches in length, the same, shorter in the board easy to do when the control flap movement. board size according to personal preference may be, some people like a longer board head board Some people like a short wheelbase. The best way is to try as many as possible of several board and ultimately to find for your size.
then other areas? when you only need to replace a new board face? If your board fault I think it is time to replace the (rubbish). If you used board head or tail of the brakes, your board will wear a serious more fragmentation; If the board soaking the same affect It's life, a long time you can not hear the crisp sound of a loud fight to.
no basis to prove the exact kind of board the most durable, most of the board for the 7 layer plywood glued together . Some companies claim their products are ultra-light board, this is because they use a relatively thin layer or fewer board layers or cross beams, these methods can slightly reduce the weight of your board but also weakened their strength. Some companies on the 7th floor in addition to increasing layers of thin lamellar feet or deeper depth of the nest to become a more durable board.
skateboard bridge options:
< br> bridge and wheel bearings will be fixed on the plate, it is your skateboard is very durable components. you relied turn or? (grind), so we know it is necessary: the bridge consists of four main parts ---- hangar (I do not know how good translation is that you? Dummy that part of the time), in the column, gaskets, base.
base to the bridge plate fixed to your face, in column from the base out of a big screw on top cover with gasket. through which you can adjust the tightness of the bridge, but the bridge column is relatively easy to damage your part, if the fault can only get a new one. pad slice through the fixed column base, it has a lot of different hardness, if you overuse it may be broken, fortunately, Shorty's and other companies selling a number of different hardness of the gasket, so you can own needs to select. The last remaining hangar, fixed in the column top, both ends of a bearing (of course, your wheels). a very common problem is the \side of the wheel lock on the other side of the wheel is very loose situation. If this time around you no tools, you can loose by pounding the ground at one end to its recovery.
Do not listen to people tell you How should the bridge controlling you should try to find out what your most comfortable. Some people like to close some, and some people like to loose some, and different people. I would say that, although some people like to loose more convenient because the shift, but a little easier to bear some of you flap (so easy to maintain balance). a popular method is to board the bridge of the tight end more in order to enhance the stability of ollie, but everything is still in your own preferences to decide.
, of course, to evaluate a bridge of good or bad is a very important aspect of weight. No one wants to buy a heavy bridge, many companies in maintaining the durability of the bridge based on the invention of many new ways to reduce the weight of the bridge. Grind Kings and Thunders yes ultra-light bridge Dai Biaoer Independent He Destroyer Jiu heavy. it was observed that 1:00 is almost all the weight of the bridge almost 10-13 ounces Du Jie, if you think Remove from your skateboard on 6 ounces you can play better, then. Maybe you do not close your eyes can not tell the difference. different width of the bridge are also different, which is right for you? If too wide, than the width of your board that you have to look like a turtle skateboard, but if too narrow, you can not see standing on skateboard wheels. the most suitable width is the side with the bridge board side of the nut aligned, that is the width of the bridge depends on the board of your choice.
the past few years, the bridge has changed several times, and now the bridge is more diversity. For example, Tensor bridge the gap in the base stuffed under a piece of plastic pieces, so that you do? board head? board last time more smoothly. Some manufacturers give them a bridge marked \column length, and some companies will not make a guarantee through shaft. like shoes, over time the bridge will become a more and more for you or you get used to it, once you find the feeling, you know what Bridge for you, which is not for you.
skateboard wheel choice:
your skateboard wheels is not important components, but the wheel determines the feeling when you slide. to see where you are sliding - on the street, U pool, swimming pool or indoor board games - which will determine what kind of wheels you choose (including the size and hardness of both). When you are faced with all kinds of skateboard shop all sorts of wheels you must mouth water, you might think they are just a different look with them are the same, you're wrong.
colors and patterns you choose may be an important factor when the wheel, but function is more important. If you want to choose the best set of wheels, here are a few key: there is no a wheel that fits all of the ground (you would think, oh, should I carry with sets of wheels at any time for What ?), most of the time if you are in the same ground taxiing, you need not worry, follow this guide or consult an experienced skater you can make the best choice.
wheels made from the polyurethane, which is a hard synthetic rubber, chemical composition by changing the ratio to improve the performance of the wheel. Each company has its own formula, so you will feel a bit different to use. you want to find The ideal wheel must be both good flexibility has a certain hardness, speed, fast and durable. well-known company is different by changing the formula to try to do this.
when you get to a set of wheels, you need to pay attention to two factors: hardness and size. Hardness (101A) is the most hard-wheel level, most of the hardness of the wheel but there is only one dual hardness wheels, the wheels in the general level or internal to hard material and soft material constituted by the outer or external.
wheel size from millimeters to mind (for example, 55mm) is usually faster for the larger wheels, but also the weight will naturally increase. wheels and a width value, and we very rarely mentioned. do not mind wheels weight factor, the more width and better grip. Of course, even with the wheels of your board, the smaller the board, of course with smaller wheels.
wheels Purchase
hardness
87A - a very rough surface (slope downhill, etc.)
95A - Comparison rough surface (blocks)
99A - smooth surface (a variety of markets, skateboard, U pool, swimming pool)
101A - not suitable for rough or very smooth surface (because too hard Therefore, a poor grip)
size
52-55 mm - for most users. markets, skateboard market. little slippery hands.
56-60 mm - suitable for most users. markets, skateboard market. adult skaters.
60 + mm - special skaters. lengthened board, downhill slopes, mud floor.
beginners the best choice for the lower hardness of the wheel, because they can not skateboard well controlling their escape on the gravel road, glass, debris, etc., if the hardness is too high the debris will get stuck to their wheels, and experienced skaters is usually the harder the wheel.
If you are a beginner the best side to your friends or try some more advice hardness and size of the wheels, to help you make a decision. < br>
