I know I'm not the target audience but it really feels like Krux has been purposely trying to tank their own company. Even my little nieces were like ugh this is so annoying.

Yep, this is wild marketing.

I know I am to old and bitter for this, but I really tried to watch and get it, but I had to end the Video after 50 seconds. No Krux for me

Advertising go to’s 101: show footage of someone throwing your product into the trash can, that they had to be talked into taking for free in the first place.
I know that DEFINITELY made me want to rush out and grab a pair.

Also, that dude should have totally kept them; he could have probably traded em in to his local for some ventures or indys or something.

Holy shit this is painful to watch. Why in the fuck would you publish this? Agreed they have the absolute worst marketing and branding.

And this is coming from someone who actually has and skates a pair of the plain silver K5's on my backup board.

I can say definitively that Krux is not marketing towards the people who typically post of SLAP.
So it doesn't come as a surprise that the folks posting on SLAP aren't into their marketing.
But, fortunately for NHS, they also own Indy, so they can afford appeal to smaller demographics.

All this being pointed out, and with a note that I do like how Alex White is managing the Krux brand and love a lot of their team and like most of Eunice's content, I thought this video was a dud.
Warm Up Zone. Let's watch some skateboarding videos.

Holy shit, the fact that some of you thought that the dude throwing the trucks in the trash was genuine says a lot about your comprehension skills.  :-\

Yep, they totally got me. Fortunately the people that they didn’t get will definitely be rushing out to buy a set.

I've had a better understanding of what is happening around me while smoking Salvia as a passenger in a moving vehicle than reading your post

one of my friends recently decided he wanted the most fucked up gimmicky trucks possible, so he combined a krux hanger with an old tensor baseplate (the one that had the plastic nose-slide tab).

when i asked him how they turned he laughed and said "they dont!"

i didnt watch this video
