Surfskate Riser Pads

Prevent Wheelbite with Surfskate Risers

For that authentic surf sensation with your board, ensure your setup allows for ample lean during your ride. However, if your deck frequently hits your wheels, it might be wise to switch your surfskate riser pads.

These are flat inserts, crafted from rubber or plastic, positioned between your trucks and deck. They expand the gap between the wheels and the surfskate deck, available in various thicknesses to match your preferences.

Riser pads offer a cost-effective and straightforward solution to prevent you from tumbling off your board and also avoid damage to it. Moreover, the risers suitable for surfskating are also compatible with skateboards and longboards, so you might already possess those compatible with your setup. If there's uncertainty about the compatibility of your hardware, consult our quick guide on Buying Skateboard Bolts & Risers.

For skateboarding on uneven terrains like a boardwalk, consider acquiring shock pads. These not only elevate your board but also lessen vibrations and cushion any impacts.

Ensure you have the appropriate Surfskate Tools to make needed adjustments to your setup.
