okay this might sounds stupid, but i feel people who "suck", rarely skate, or just dont know what they're doing, tend to be the ones breaking trucks. i can skate 5 days a week, skating all types of things, and never break a truck. in the 10 years ive been skating i've had like 5 pairs of trucks and the first 3 sets were within the first year. after that they've just gotten old enough to replace.
either way, indy has never let me down, stage 8, 9, or 10. out of the 3, 8s felt the most sturdy, but ive had no problem with 9 or 10.
