Introduzione

Vai al passo 1

If your Land Yachtz longboard isn't turning well or you find that you can't adjust the tension of your trucks, your board kingpin may be damaged or faulty. Use this guide to replace the faulty kingpin and get your board back into good shape.

The kingpin is essential in turning the board with your body weight and allowing the user to effectively control their movement. If it is faulty, the board will not do its job and injury can result.

This ten-step guide will show you how to replace the kingpin without potentially damaging other parts of the longboard and allow for a better ride.
