The rear truck adapters are designed to create tracking as known to surfers and people who do watercraft like kayaking. That's the tendency to maintain straight forward direction. That's how they do surfing. The surf fins underneath force the board's body to go in the direction the front is pointed at. You're so used to motorized boards that you don't notice that carving in surfing is supposed to create human-powered propulsion.

This is a must-have for your e-skate board. I've got a Meepo v2.5 and it's the ONLY way I can go fast and turn and cut deep on the streets. For me, it's a safety feature because I can get away from problems on the street QUICKLY because of the leaning and turning qualities this device adds to your board. It's a relatively inexpensive upgrade at $80 for the front and rear truck set. I will never ride an e-skate board without this addition to it.

I have the tendency to believe car riders witnessing me on the streets don't make the appropriate level of space needed to not clip someone riding on the side of a road, (they drive even closer to me, as a show of stubbornness or something) so these days I use the crosswalk and concrete ramps at the corner of an intersection and before having these trucks meant getting off the board, rotating it 90 degrees to go left or right, now I can go up the curb ramp and lean and clear the turn all without getting off the board to pivot it. Something that took an extra 10 seconds to securely do now instant. I really appreciate it for that, and paired with cloud wheels the small 1" concrete curb for storm drain doesn't catch on the old polyurethane wheels forcing me to walk and remote drive the board up that curb, its the urban sidewalk setup accessories that just give it the maneuverability my old long board was too rigid to adapt for. I really am inspired how much your hind leg pivots on your full speed carving, I'll try that too, looks more cardio effective and I'm sure those movements will still be fresh and not played out by any fellow observing eskate enthusiast. Cheers.

It's so high off the ground... Wish there were a solution to attach the hanger from your trucks directly onto a vertical kingpin so you don't need the tilting rail in the rear. Something similar in the front. They should release a zero-kingpin attachment that could attach to the surfskate system so we can get lower ride heights

Increased steering agility(with no loss of stability) is just one benefit. The handling is SO much better than stock on every. Eboard ive tried the adapters on. The added height is a moot point when riding since any higher CG is offset by how much deeper you can carve so only an issue if you have to push with a dead battery. I bet if you tried it your no would turn into a hard yes

Yeah I just got my stealth discounted from someone trying to get rid of his, literally brand new. Theres quite a few options online for belts that are actually better than the stock ones boosted provides in terms of durability. As for wheels, you can literally get any longboard wheels and attach them to the stock pulleys or get new pulleys for better torque. Theres still a lot of people making stuff for boosted boards, it's to big a community for it to die completely. Granted we wo t be getting any new software, and warranty servicing is going to be worthless, however if you treat your board right and maintain it, It can last you forever! Who knows maybe boosted will make a comeback..

I've been using the Surf adapters kits on my boards for the last couple years, both powered and analog, and LOVE them. No speed wobbles as it's using a trailing link which makes it stable. The rear rail is even supposed to help with isolating wobbles as well. I recommend the carbon extension plate as well, allows lower deck and it really eats up the road chatter. I fully agree this is a no brainer upgrade.

dacsupra I've a Bustin duolomo and I have the full kit on it. The rear fits, barely, but you'll need a 1/4" riser to make it work as even at rearmost holes the drop bend makes a tight fit. DEFINITELY get the carbon extension plate! It'll keep you from getting any wheel bite without raising your deck like a monster truck, adds some wheelbase for stability (but you will still gain huge agility), and gives some suspension to eat up road chatter. I actually just ordered another full kit and an extra carbon plate to try and put on the rear
