Slappy Trucks Review | 3 months in

Today I’m pleased to bring you my thoughts on Slappy trucks after having ridden them for enough time to gauge their performance. Hope this video helps you make a decision if you’re on the fence about purchasing them. Cheers!

The truck in question

For anyone landing here first: Slappy ST1 trucks are the skater-owned design from Mike Sinclair, engineered around grind clearance, smooth turn, and kingpins that stay out of the way of the grind. The line runs Classic, Hollow, Hollow Light, Inverted (Curb Killer), Ultra Low, and 13" Wide - every one rebuildable with interchangeable Slappy parts.

Judge it yourself: shop the full skateboard truck range, check the size chart to match a deck, and know the warranty has your back. More reviews, comparisons, and team news live on the Slappy blog.

Every ST1 is rebuildable down to the kingpin: baseplates, pivot cups, bushings, and hardware swap across the whole line, so the trucks in this post can be serviced back to day-one feel instead of replaced. That is a deliberate design decision, and it is half the reason shops keep reordering.

Slappy sells direct from the Sidewalk Distribution warehouse and through local skate shops - if your shop does not stock ST1s yet, they can open an account through the wholesale page. Either way, the warranty travels with the trucks.
