Always a good thing for stability and ease of pushing, it's makes even more difference for people with little legs. The C5 truck will be much more manageable for kids, and the lower ride height also makes it much easier for those wanting to learn some skate tricks along the way, be it the basics, ollies or kickflips and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHollow kingpins and axles further lower the weight of the trucks to make it a pleasure for kids to skate around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e6-ply construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e This 27\" board is pressed with only 6 plies of Canadian maple - one less than your usual skateboard or surfskate.
