Oskis New Truck Brand

[Uncle Flea]

But what about Manny's? Can't you like just lean into the anti wheel bite tech and cheat your way to Buddhahood

Just got a set of the new Lurpiv hollow trucks. Very light, setting them up today.

They still look like an hybrid tech deck/Lego

@144p
Looking forward to your impressions on these.
They’re funky looking as hell & I really want to give them a try to see how well they’ve managed to address their prior design issues.
Are they in stock at the shop yet, or… ?
Also, Does anybody know if is their a sizing guide publicly anvailable anywhere? Does the sizing designation (mm one presumes) reflect hanger width, or axle?

I have always liked the look of these honestly. Kinda industrial looking like a Venture.

[Frank and Fred]

Certainly unique looking trucks. T-hanger style. I appreciate retro skateboard equipment but I don't think I could handle these.

[Xen]

Still zero interest in these (and I like the look); just no interest in a 55mm tall truck for bowl riding these days.

[Enrico Pallazzo]

I’m probably gonna get a pair, I find myself irresistibly drawn to those weird trucks. Had one of the earliest sets of Ace back in the day, so I think I’m just a skinny truck fiend. They’ve got a 9”/66/169 equivalent dropping right?

[Rick Trapasso]

Skeptical of the new bushing design. I feel like the old shape was a big factor in how they felt, which I thought differentiated them from other trucks in a good way

[Puddy Smally]

Issues and constant maintenance aside, I really loved how the OG’s skated.

I’ll always have a weird curious interest in these, I just don’t know if I’m in for round 2.

[144p]

Skated mine before work but got rained out.
Never skated the old Lurpiv trucks and had minimal expectations but was blown away. Love the turn and response. Bushings felt solid with no pinch or sticking. The grind is amazing, so smooth and fast. I popped a few front shoves and a kickflip before the rain and the pop felt decent.
Excited to see how these feel in the coming sessions.

do they feel super tall?
i appreciate the look.
for me, my utmost truck quality, is the pop

[144p]

Didn’t feel super tall but I also bounce around between venture/indy/ace

Well, they’re yellow now, for starters.


Aaand that’s all I’ve got.

[144p]

Bushings felt great for a stock bushing, I plan on running them as is. I’m also a guy who swaps out more often than not for an aftermarket option.

[CarcassToss]

A few friends had the old ones and they do not skate or feel like an equivalent height Indy. The pop feel was snappier for one and they never felt tippy because of the geometry. I was surprised how good they felt on normal terrain.... until they completely exploded.

venture and ace don’t bother me height wise.
tried some indy’s recently and kinda hated the pop.

stoked you are doing product reviews

[JimmyFive]

Those yellow bushings look like the RipTide 90A APS formula. Solid bushing choice if they are!

They are now lower than the OGs. I don’t remember exactly the actual hight (but I think it’s the same as Aces at 53mm). That was one of the main changes that Pontus told me about a few months ago…

Shape is different now.

The top bushing on the og was short and fat, not a standard style top bushing like these appear to be.

[Vintagebody]

A truck that has anti-wheelbite "tech", and turns like an indy? I'm sold! Baseplate looks slimmer, so makes sense if they are 53mm tall

[Síota]

They are 55mm tall

I wonder if the truck hanger is more pushed out compared to ace/indys making it more similar to a Thunder wb

[CarcassToss]

Where will these be available and when?

[144p]

When I placed a prebook they said in may.

did you put them on the scale?

[144p]

I never saw the standards in person, just the hollow version. Those are 12.1 oz per truck for the 150mm version

dang that is light, for what they are (i think of them as more indy/ace, than thunder/venture).

i wanted to get them when they first came out, mostly due to the look. i thought danny dicolas chopped down 215s looked rad, and the t-hanger little indy’s look good too.
folks on here loudly mentions the issues stopped me.
curious to see how it goes for them.

[Xen]

How pitted looking are they (i.e., Royals)? They seem like they are, but less so.
