This video is part 2 of our surf-rodz precision trucks review.  You can watch part 1 in the blog post just before this one.  In the second part of this series we aimed to tackle life’s toughest questions, like “How do Surf-Rodz trucks compare to Munkae precision longboard trucks?”

Compared to JimZ Precision Trucks, Surf-Rodz come in 3 different baseplate degrees to dial in your ride.  JimZ trucks are designed for stability and nothing else so they are limited to a 35 degree baseplate only.  Jimz Trucks have a tight bushing seat with minimal lean.  Surf-Rodz have a deep bushing seat.

You can expand the axle widths on the Surf-Rodz trucks by purchasing the axle extensions to make it a  220-240mm width.  Narrower hangers will offer a nimble ride with quick turning for easy carving.  The wider option will be super stable, especially at high speeds. You can also get the 150mm hanger which can extend to 160 or 170mm. It’s suited for small longboards like longboard hybrid minis.  These narrow hangers will turn on a dime for ultimate thrashability.

Did we mention that they come in a huge variety of colors like purple, blue, gold, and black?
