Abstract: A novel double-kingpin skateboard truck is disclosed herein. The novel truck comprises, generally, an intermediary member with a keyway slot that receives an L-shaped keyway bolt. A plurality of risers may be installed on the keyway bolt to raise or lower the overall height of the truck and, thus, the height of an attached skateboard above the ground. The design of the truck allows for increased lateral articulation of the truck when its height is maximized, thus allowing for tighter leaning and turning of the skateboard, while limiting lateral articulation in its lowest height articulation, resulting in increased lateral stability and the ability to operate the skateboard more safely at higher speeds.

Abstract: A skateboard truck is fabricated utilizing one, or more, elongated, generally ‘wing’ shaped, elastomeric bushings which have the ability of being controllably rotated both from within, as well as from around, the perimeters of one or more bushing seats formed into the main body of the hanger of the skateboard truck. By controllably rotating the wing shaped bushing from a parallel bushing position in relation to the sloped mounting face of the truck base plate into a perpendicular bushing position in relation to the same sloped mounting face, an enhanced range of truck tension control options are provided to the truck. Such a truck design permits the possibility of bushing tension and position adjustments to be made to the truck without the need for the rider to dismount the skateboard, and also without the use of tools. Moreover, a skateboard rider has the ability to perform such truck tension adjustments while being mounted on and in the act of riding the skateboard.
