another pic of the new oski trucks. reminds me of the tesla robocop truck

Unless it’s the angle, but those trucks look high as fuck, I’d never be able to ride a truck so high and I don’t even ride lo’s.

Being so high, I get the feeling like the kingpins would snap easily.
[close]

It's not the angle; look at how much room between his knuckles and the wheels...they are high AF.
[close]

Damn even the front truck the gap is super noticeable between wheel and board.

I'm on Tensor ATGs (55mm) with 53mm wheels and I can't get my hand in a similar position without the wheels touching my hand; I've less than half the room he's showing in that pic.

Doesn't mean they are final product of course.

But we all know if someone makes a lighter ACE with even 50% better QC than ACE has, people are going to jump.

The inverted kingpin will hopefully help people be more open to the switch

Damn. Made in Sweden? Respect! I love my Aces but I’d be very interested in buying products made in a country that treats their citizens well. Hopefully these skate as good or better than Aces!  :)

I gotta say, it's pretty bold to start a truck company out of the gate... Most of these young pros make some t-shirts, then transition to a deck company, then fizzle out within 3 years.

Oski is going balls out, respect for that.

I wonder how long these will take to come to the market, this looks like the quality control stage atm seeing as oski only started skating them after the olympics, I wonder how many euro guys will be on the team too, can see this taking a hold of the EU / UK scene if it's done right.

i'm assuming the almost solid baseplate is the source of the heavier than ace comments, ya?

Thats fucking amazing @alraunen  ;D ;D ;D

Indys and ace’s are also pretty solid in their basic versions. Probably same territory in terms of weight.

Me too. I wasn’t that psyched, thinking it was yet another made in china truck company, but this “made in Sweden” changes everything! Super ballsy move from Oski, definitely backing this, will buy. We’ve seen Film push the Euro Truck angle in that Jenkem article (but then say they can’t make em anywhere but china), and Pontus teased the local manufacturing angle/environmental/sustainable for AB (then pumped them out from Vietnam). So to actually put your money where your mouth is, and back local production in your own country is a straight up boss move. This is what skateboarding needs more of, backing this 100%.

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I saw Petar from macba skating them on IG.

Probably until you see the price. This shit is going to be like $150 a pair.

I'm guessing they could cost around 100-120 euros a pair in Europe.

Not sure how much are you guys paying in USA, but here a pair of independent standards is around 80 euros and a pair of Venture V-hollows is around 90 euros.

I'm down for the extra cost for something not made in china.

First thing that popped into my head too. But on the other hand I think people are ready to pay more for locally made shit here, especially after seeing how covid took shelves empty and nobody knew when they’ll get more product from overseas.
europe's like the capitol of england and france and whatever

It sucks getting old.

Those are not lurpiv trucks. It’s the indy’s 109’s which were made for really small deck like the one he uses.


That, paired with some bigger wheels makes it look like a monster truck, when I’m fact it’s might be an average hight.
