How To Use TruckStop

01

Screw the custom trucks into your skateboard like any other trucks.

02

Attach the battery box to the board base with provided velcro attachment. Turn the battery on.

03

Skate as usual with remote in hand. Press the red button on the remote to engage brakes. Press again to disengage. 

Why we made TruckStop

Skateboarding should be fun. 

We wanted to eliminate one of the most difficult & dangerous aspects of skating for beginners: braking. Existing techniques and solutions just don't cut it. They are either too advanced or cumbersome to work well. That's what inspired us to create Truckstop.

How it Works
