- 150MM RKP axel can be swapped out with different hangers from various brands like Paris and Caliber.
DREAM Surf Truck Includes: DREAM Surf Truck, FIN System Blue Wedges (Wheels and Bearings not included)
The DREAM Surf Truck is the very best design and engineering that Waterborne can put forward. DREAM has been in the works for a couple of years, on and off, as a result of a fairly unstable market. The project has chewed up and spit out multiple teams of designers who tried and failed to make this form that you see here. Our final design team consisted of the Surf Adapter's original mechanical engineer David Lujan, and an old colleague from Oakley, Eric Fairbanks. During the glory days of Oakley, their design team was second to none. David and Eric made products that permeated the world of eyewear and action sports. They taught us so many valuable lessons during this process which we will carry onto future projects. Our expectations for DREAM go far beyond the current standard for a surfskate truck and Waterborne will be demonstrating that over the coming years.
From a technical perspective, there are 2 key differences between the FIN Surf Adapter (+150mm Waterborne RKP) and the DREAM Surf Truck. 1. it is 0.20lbs lighter 2. the axle sits .75" further back from the primary pivot. That means that you get a greater caster effect. It's a cleaner turn and a cleaner look. It does come standard with the FIN System, so you can adjust the pivot angle on the fly. The Dream Surf Truck can have its 150mm hanger swapped out with hangers from Caliber or Paris.
Finally, it's crucially important to note that DREAM is our way of filling the gap between our universal Adapter technology, and our Complete surfskates. Surf Adapters will remain at the heart of Waterborne Skateboards. We hope that DREAM someday brings as much joy to riders around the world as the Surf Adapter has already brought.
DESIGN INSIGHT
The Surf Adapter is an extremely robust design that has been mounted onto everything from 12 inch skateboards to 12 foot long skateboards! It has been paired with every truck under the sun, and riden by people on all 7 continets. We believe that the Surf Adapter's design language, aids in it's mission for universal appeal. This rebust design lan guage is why the FIN System works. Had we taken a more common approach, had we coppied an existign design, or had we put any less consideration, we would not have been able to add these clever little wedges to the Surf Adaper without significant further modification. It is only becuase we found the best solution, the bushing, that we can change the pivot angle and still have the same functionality and resilience.
