About the trucks on the Play 120

To make this skateboard better suited to children aged 3-7 years, it features a wider wheelbase: the deck is lower and won't have a leverage effect on the nose and tail. We chose ABEC3 bearings for a smooth ride and softer bushings to make learning to turn easier. And to make sure this skateboard grows with your child, it features holes for moving the trucks to a normal position.

A skateboard that breaks the mould for young skateboarders

With its symmetrical design and lower height, the Play 120 doesn't look like a regular skateboard. For greater stability, the trucks are set wider and at an incline. The result: a lower deck to make pushing off easier. With the trucks at the nose and tail, you no longer have any leverage, which means no goofy or regular stance - which is why it has a symmetrical shape. A skateboard that breaks the mould and makes learning to ride more fun.

Trucks, nose, bushing etc. Let's review the vocabulary:

"It all started two years ago. We wanted to create a skateboard that was truly suited to children aged 3 to 7 years who need to learn how to push off, ride and turn. That's why we used real bearings for a smooth ride: learning a sport should still be fun. If things are always hard, fun goes out the window. We tested this skateboard in skateboarding schools for children in h, France, to create a simple, age-appropriate product. The aim was for children to have fun using it."

How should you learn to skateboard? Our design team has a few tips:

"First things first: to learn to skateboard, get yourself properly kitted out: helmet, elbow pads, knee pads, wrist pads. Protective gear means you can fall without getting hurt. Falling is a part of skateboarding, just like learning to walk. Or a bit like judo, when you learn how to fall. The second thing is to find the right place to practise: flat ground, without cars. An empty parking lot is a great place to start!"

Super pour apprendre le skate, car les truck sont aux extrémités ce qui permet une plus grande stabilité. Et par la suite on peux les déplacer vers le centre en position classique, les percages sont déjà prévu. Petit plus le design est plutôt sympa.
