DOUBLE CARVE SKATEBOARDS PRESENTS The NEWEST TECH IN Double Kingpin TRUck Design!
Many Longboarders already know what DKP Trucks are...
But very few know what
Double Kingpin RKP Trucks are!
That's because they are a brand new type of super carving DKP Truck called a 'Double Reverse Kingpin Truck'...or, for short ...a 'Double RKP Truck'. (Note the tight turning radius in the short video.)

Notice that in this configuration, 4 Barrel Bushings are installed (1 Plug Barrel), which are useful both for excellent riding stability and also to support heavier riders. No other skateboard truck has this very handy 4 Barrel capability. For lighter riders, 2 'Plug Conical' Bushings can be used as the Top Bushings.
THE MANY SKATING BENEFITS OF RIDING DOUBLE RKP TRUCKS :
- They offer longboard riders two very different ways of riding their RKP Trucks. The first is the well known downhill carving and sliding that RKP Trucks are already famous for. But, now, with DRKP Adapters, these same regular RKP Trucks can quickly be converted into top quality DRKP Surfskates! ...and all in only about 15 minutes time per truck. This is why we use the term: '2-in-1', because they are really 'dual purpose' Trucks...both regular RKP Downhill Trucks, but also superior carving, Double RKP Surfskates! It just depends on whether the DRKP Adapter Brackets are installed, or not.
- In the converted Surfskate mode, the turning angles are both sharp and shallow, due to the use of 14.5º Black Nylon Wedges. (Note the sharp turning angle and the 75mm. yellow wheels in the attached photo, above).
- The new DRKP Trucks also allow up to 3 or 4 full sized Barrel Bushings to be mounted onto each of the 'Adapted' Trucks, significantly increasing DRKP stability and overall truck 'Rebound'.
- Moreover, the new DoubleCarve DRKP Adapters are also compatible with about 90% + of all other current RKP Truck brands on the market today. This means that skaters who already own RKP Longboards can easily convert them into DKP Surfskate Boards by merely installing the DRKP Brackets and other precision components into them.
- Not all deck shapes are optimal for DRKP riding, but very many are. Longboards with wheel cutouts, and Pintail boards with mounting holes close to the tips of the board are ideal. (See the best Board Shapes in the graphic, above.) Other shapes might need extra 1/8" riser pads for guarding against wheelbite. But with proper board shapes, 75mm. wheels work perfectly with these new DRKP Trucks.
