WIDE LOAD: HOW BIG BOARDS, EGG SHAPES AND CLASSIC MONSTERS TOOK OVER SKATEBOARDING

Wide boards are back in a big way, but calling them a comeback almost sells the whole thing short. For a lot of skaters, wider decks never really left. They just moved in and out of the spotlight while skateboarding kept changing around them.

Slappy Trucks came out of a simple but stubborn idea: make a skateboard truck that turns properly, grinds cleanly, and feels good right out of the box.
