Skateboard trucks and skateboards using the improved trucks are disclosed. Truck according to the present invention can comprising a hanger with wheels. A base assembly is included having an at least partially hollow housing section. The hanger is rotationally mounted to the base assembly. The hanger also comprises a hanger portion that is within partially hollow housing section. Compressible spring elements are included within the partially hollow housing section, wherein the hanger portion operates on the compressible spring elements when the hanger rotates in relation to the base assembly. Skateboards are also disclosed that utilize the truck. One or more trucks are mounted to the skateboard deck with the truck having internal compressible spring elements that are compressed when turning the skateboard. The internal compressible spring elements also expand to return the truck to a neutral position when the skateboard is not turning.

Skateboard and skateboard trucks for simulating surfing

A side-by-side pair of platforms, each equipped with a foot-pad, are coupled in a manner to form a vehicle, and are supported (a) at the rear by a truck-mount under each platform, integrated with a shared axle assembly fitted at its ends with a pair of rear wheels, located at opposite sides of the vehicle, and (b) at the front by a tilt-turn mount system including at least one front wheel, typically a caster-mounted roller, accomplishing dual-platform tilt-turning in response to the user's body movements simulating superior snow-skiing techniques, thus enabling sustained self-propulsion by user body movements and providing recreation, training and practice for skiers of all ages and skill levels.
