Abstract: There is disclosed an entirely new configuration for a truck for skateboards, roller skates, and the like including a baseplate adapted to be connected to the underside of a skate, an elongate beam made from a flexible material, one end of the beam being connected to the baseplate and the beam extending at an acute angle relative thereto, and an elongate axle or axle hub rigidly connected to the other end of the beam and extending perpendicular thereto. The baseplate, the beam, and the axle or axle hub are a one-piece assembly made from a plastic material. An axle may extend through the hub for receipt of conventional wheels.
