Independent 1/8 Riser Pads - Elevate Your Skateboarding ExperienceFine-tune your skateboard setup for maximum performance and deck longevity with the genuine Independent 1/8 Riser Pads. As an essential upgrade for any serious skater, these high-quality pads, also known as Elevators, are meticulously designed to provide the perfect amount of clearance and cushioning, allowing you to push your skating to the next level with confidence. Whether you´re cruising the streets, carving the bowl, or hitting the park, these risers are the industry-standard solution for a smoother, more reliable ride.The primary benefit of installing the Independent 1/8 Riser Pads is the complete elimination of dreaded wheel bite. This dangerous issue occurs when your wheel makes contact with the underside of your deck during a deep carve or tight turn, causing an abrupt and often painful stop. By adding a subtle 1/8 inch of space between your trucks and the deck, these pads provide the crucial clearance needed to run larger wheels (typically 55mm and up) or ride with looser trucks, empowering you to carve harder and turn sharper without fear.Beyond just clearance, these pads act as a crucial shock-absorbing layer between your metal trucks and your wooden deck. This significantly dampens high-frequency vibrations from rough pavement, concrete, and cracks, resulting in a noticeably smoother and more comfortable ride. This vibration reduction not only saves your feet and joints during long sessions but also protects your skateboard deck. By distributing the pressure from the trucks more evenly and absorbing impacts from landings, these risers help prevent the formation of stress cracks around the mounting holes, extending the life of your favorite board.Engineered by one of the most trusted brands in skateboarding, these pads offer a precise and consistent lift. The 1/8-inch height is the perfect middle ground—enough to prevent wheel bite in most setups without drastically altering your board´s center of gravity. This maintains a responsive board feel while providing just enough extra leverage for powerful turns and ollies.Main Features:* Wheel Bite Prevention: Creates essential clearance between the deck and wheels for unrestricted turning and carving.* Vibration Dampening: Absorbs shock from rough surfaces for a smoother, more comfortable ride and reduced foot fatigue.* Deck Protection: Reduces the risk of pressure cracks and stress fractures by cushioning the area between the trucks and the deck.* Enables Larger Wheels: Allows for the use of larger wheel sizes for increased speed and better performance on varied terrain.* Universal Fit: Designed with a standard mounting hole pattern to ensure compatibility with virtually all modern and old-school skateboard trucks.* Durable Construction: Built to withstand the high-impact demands of skateboarding, ensuring long-lasting performance and reliability.Technical Specifications:* Product Type: Riser Pads / Elevators* Thickness: 1/8 inch (approx. 3mm)* Quantity: One set of two (2) pads, sufficient for one complete skateboard.* Color: Black* Compatibility: Fits standard skateboard truck mounting patterns.Upgrade your setup with the hardware trusted by professionals worldwide.
