Technical Specs:
- Pivot adjustment:
- Pivot pins are not factory adjusted. Always adjust the pivot pins so that the ball just touches the bottom of the Delrin pivot cup.
- The pivot pin adjustment should be checked regularly once installed. Do not assume the pivot pin adjustment is correct if no
- movement is felt when checking the adjustment. It could be adjusted longer than necessary. Pivot pins adjusted too long can
- cause the skate to have an unpleasant “darting” feel when skating. If the pivot pin ball does not touch the pivot cup you will be
- able to press down on the truck assembly and feel or see a slight movement of the pivot pin into and out of the cup. Adjust the
- pivot pin until the pressure applied to the truck no longer results in this movement. When satisfied that the pivot pin is resting
- with slight pressure in the pivot cup, secure the pivot pin lock nut firmly against the truck housing. NEVER skate your plates with
- the pivot pin lock nuts improperly tightened. Loose pivot pins will self-adjust and possibly damage the threads in the trucks.
- Cushions:
- The DA45 truck is very unique when compared to other trucks on the market. Due to its extreme angle it must use a special set
- of cushions, one “barrel” and one “conical” cushion. We developed a special urethane with 4 different hardness levels to fine
- tune the action of your skate.
- Blue – 72A
- Yellow – 79A
- Purple – 85A
- Red – 93A
- Tips for tuning your action.
- 1) Remember a stiff action may make a skater feel more stable initially, however, it has several adverse side effects. The
- most important one to consider is the amount of force needed to make the skate do what you want it to do. The stiffer
- the action, the harder you need to work to get the skate to turn. This effort can lead to premature wear or failure of
- boots or worse, your feet. A simple rule of thumb. The stiffer the action, the more the SKATE controls where you are
- going. The softer the action, the more YOU control where you are going. How is that again? You say you have
- experienced a loose action behave like it has a mind of its own?? Not so. The skate is simply going where you tell it to
- go and you are over correcting. The more you over correct, the more erratic the skating becomes.
- 2) The DA45 action turns more quickly and easily than any other design on the market. It will go exactly where you tell it
