Still looks like enlarged tech deck trucks to me.
you’re not wrong (probably prototypes though)

Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year

This shit is lame af and pretty damn ugly I have to say!

Don't get why anyone would even bother wasting time offering another truck brand (as with skateboard companies) - the industry is already over saturated with hardware shit.

Like Xen said, unless they're coming to the table with what no one else is offering then f-off basically...
Just what everybody said about Ace at the beginning

"Lurpiv" sounds like one of those brands with keysmash names that are all over Amazon

I can't say I saw any of that kinda chat when Ace came about - but at least with Ace they came with something diff. Shorter WB and tighter / looser turn. This shit just looks wack af and with a dead name.

I didn't buy into ace when they first came out because the hangers looked like they would bend and they did.

If this new brand has superior QC then they are already ahead.

Very true, hopefully they will become a "budget" Ace truck in the best way possible. Slightly cheaper but with better QC.

In all honesty, it's surprising as fuck that ACE survived in that people were willing to deal with easily the shittiest QC seen in a truck brand (fucking ML were able to do it and I doubt they lost money over producing it, Theeve did it and they had less of a head start by not being part of Team Indy way back when) just because they skated differently than Indy; better is subjective.

Personally, the OG hanger design (theeve V1 too) is tits and I've only ever had issues with classics over 8" (or Theeve over 8.18") and my first pair of 55 AF1s (shitty QC fooled me twice, shame on me) so unless I'm getting them for free, I'm not paying for subpar shit...hell even the pair I did get for free I sold off the next day.

The only reason ACE thrived is because indy was in such as fucking flux with 1010, the move from China, shake ups at NHS, and so on. People still think ace is US made.

Idk if it's been discussed, but I wonder how the turn will be. The reason being He skated for Ace but He cranked them down a ton and obviously isn't heavy.

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.

To me that pivot looks it’ll snap too easily especially on heavy impact skating…

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

Oski also rides risers. They’re probably standard height.

They resemble Surf Rodz. Saw an older bowl skater was riding them recently, they looked fairly high. Always wondered how they felt, but didn't want to be weird and ask to ride his deck.

Saw that, I think it’s a nickname of sorts going by the format of the other names
