Cruise in Comfort With Risers and Shock Pads

If you’re concerned about experiencing wheelbite while riding, consider adding cruiser skateboard risers to give your board a bit more height. Constructed from rubber or plastic, risers are easily placed between the deck and truck of your setup. When choosing cruiser skateboard riser pads, you have the option of various heights as well as flat or angled risers, allowing you to customize your setup to your liking.

Much like risers, cruiser skateboard shock pads are available. However, instead of merely adding height, shock pads are designed to smooth out your ride and minimize vibrations.
