Their 180mm Randal trucks are wider and are therefore used for freeride, downhilling, dancing and other strong setups. The 150mm models are best for purposes like long distance pumping, fast downhill riding, carving down the street or up the pavement.

However, these are not strong and stable like the 180mm trucks, but some of the professional longboarders can be seen using them for downhill races.

Higher degrees baseplates in Randal trucks allow them to turn quicker, but bend less and will enable the user to return-to-center fast without any flexibility. However, lower degree baseplates will produce the reverse effect – turn less, but can bend longer/more.  The Randal longboard trucks with lower degrees baseplates are more stable. With all these baseplates to select from, Randal trucks can be used in any longboard schedule and without the necessity for angled risers. Even they can go well with hangers from other brands like Paris

Adjustment of Randal Trucks with Bushing Setups, and Flipping Hanger
This longboard truck has the option to flip the hanger. In its general condition, the Randal R –lls assure positive rake angle which makes it turn fast and feel more lively. When they are flipped with the hanger, a negative rake angle gets produced to make the truck turn less and stand stable.

Basic Parts of Longboard Trucks
    Baseplate: This part of longboard trucks is connected to the board with four mounting hardware bolts.

    Hanger: Hanger is the part of truck that acts as the axel and holds the wheel in place.

    Bushing: Bushing is the rubber pad between the kingpin, baseplate and hanger of a longboard truck. You can choose either a harder busing or a softer bushing depending on your needs. Harder bushings are tougher to turn but return more energy, while softer bushing absorb the energy from impact and makes your turns easier.

     Kingpin: This one is a big bolt that fits inside bushings and holds the longboard truck parts together.

Here are few tips that can help to choose the right longboard trucks for your cruising longboard.

    Choose the right longboard truck width. There are basically to two longboard trucks width to choose from, 150 mm and 180 mm. Always choose the longboard truck that is closest to the width of your longboard deck.

    For skinnier cruising decks that have width less than 8.5”, select 150 mm longboard trucks. But for carving decks (usually widths ranging 8.5”- 10.5” and up), use 180 mm longboard trucks.

    Use reverse kingpin trucks, if you are using longboard for boardwalk or downhill race. The reverse kingpin longboard trucks are designed to allow more carving and enhance the turn ability.

    But, if you are going to use your longboard in skate park or street skating, then it’s probably best for you to use standard-kingpin style longboard trucks.  It allows for sharp response, which is needed in street skating.
