Independent Hollow Mid Inverted Trucks for Everyday Skating
If you have been searching for hollow skateboard trucks that riders trust deck after deck, the Independent Hollow Mid Inverted Trucks are built on the same inverted kingpin platform that has made Independent the number one choice of professional skateboarders since 1978.
What Makes These Trucks Different
These are hollow trucks, meaning the kingpin and axle are drilled out to cut weight without cutting durability, paired with a mid height, inverted baseplate design. That combination is why Independent has remained a staple truck brand across generations of skaters rather than a passing trend.
Who These Trucks Are For
Mid trucks strike a middle ground that suits riders who want responsive turning for street and park skating without giving up the stability needed for rolling around South Florida boardwalks, driveways, and local skate spots. They are a strong pick for anyone upgrading worn stock trucks on a current deck or building a board from scratch.
- Hollow kingpin and axle for reduced weight
- Mid height, inverted baseplate geometry
- Trusted by professional skateboarders since 1978
Setting Up and Breaking In Your Trucks
New trucks should be mounted with the kingpin bolt snug enough to prevent wobble at speed but loose enough to carve comfortably, then adjusted over your first few sessions as the bushings seat in. Check the kingpin nut periodically, since hardware on any truck can loosen with regular riding, and re-tighten as needed to keep your ride predictable.
Why Independent
Independent has built its reputation as the number one choice of professional skateboarders since 1978, and that track record is a big part of why so many riders stick with the brand truck after truck rather than experimenting elsewhere.
