Pair of new Independent Mid skateboard trucks.

Independent Tiago Lemos Mid trucks with art by Pedro Jurubis (@pedrojurubis).

Yes, Indy have finally made a truck with inverted kingpins - it's only taken them about 50 years though!!!

This is a fractionally lower truck for street skating with improved grind clearance on the kingpin.  If you want to ride them with bigger wheels then an 1/8" riser under each base will have you back at the regular 55mm axle height (near enough).

Not made in 169 or 215 sizes but the baseplates are interchangeable with existing Indy stage 11 trucks.  The new mid plates only have the 4 new holes though so if you need the old hole baseplates these are not gonna work for you. ;-(

We will have the baseplates on their own for sale in the next few months for those wishing to convert some existing Indies to Mids.  Watch this space. ;-)

Indy on their new trucks:

New Independent MiD trucks feature a lower profile hanger for optimal contact point angle on your nose and tail for flip tricks, ledges, and all-around street skating with a recommended wheel size of 53mm and under.

The newly designed and first ever Independent inverted kingpin can be used with either a 5.5mm Allen key or standard 9/16" hex wrench. The innovative new Shaft Nut in the baseplate creates a rigid and durable solution to lateral movement found in most inverted kingpin designs and increases adjustability.

The new MID is 52mm tall and built on Independentճ legendary geometry with full size cushions for maximum turning action and comes in 129, 139, 144, 149, 159 sizes.

The all new design includes a new baseplate stamp and size designations underneath the hanger for easy identification.
