Longboard Wheels and Trucks for Sliding

There is nothing better than sliding on your Longboard. Besides some days--- sliding at the right time could save your life. 
To tune up your board for sliding the Galactic G’s team recommends you add the Randal  180 mmm 50 Degree Raw trucks and Sector 970mm Butterball wheels. 

RANDAL R-11 TRUCK WHITE and BLACK 180MM 50 DEGREE



Some have said that the Randal R-11 truck is the standard for a slider setup. Around since the 1970’s, these trucks are built to last and perform better than other brands. You can tighten them for downhill and loosen for around town. The truck is stable at speeds and still offers a lot of response with a wide turning radius.





SECTOR 9 70MM 80A BUTTERBALLS WHEEL
These Butterball wheels will help control your slides, yet smooth because they are manufactured with right amount of grip to slip on most pavements. These urethane wheels are wide for stand up, hands down and sit down slides.



Galactic G Skateshop is located in the northern side of the Ivanhoe District in Orlando, Florida, is the oldest and largest core skateshop in Central Florida.

Kids Skateboards And Completes In Stock

We have stocked up this Holiday season with small skateboard completes perfect for kids starting out. There are complete skateboards that are big enough for adults, but most of the sizes will be smaller than a 7.75" wide.

Some kid decks come with griptape, and some come with a soft foam top to prevent scraps when falling on top of the board.

We have also stocked up on adult size skateboard decks that you can see on the left side of the picture below. At Galactic G, we take pride in our inventory and will always apply griptape and other hardware, free of charge, so you can leave ready to skate.
Just ask any of our knowledgeable staff members to for assistance and we will be happy to help.
