Shop skateboard riser pads from Independent, Real, Pig and more. Add extra clearance between your deck and trucks to help accommodate larger wheels and reduce the risk of wheel bite.
CHOOSING SKATEBOARD RISERS?
Riser pads sit between the skateboard deck and truck baseplate, increasing the distance between your wheels and deck. They can be useful when running larger wheels or when extra clearance is needed to reduce wheel bite. Thicker risers add more clearance but may also require longer mounting hardware.
SKATEBOARD RISER GUIDE
1/8" RISERS
A small increase in clearance for skateboard setups needing a little extra space between the wheels and deck.
1/4" RISERS
Provide more clearance for larger wheels or setups where reducing the risk of wheel bite is a greater priority.
CHECK YOUR HARDWARE
Adding risers increases the distance between your trucks and deck, so longer mounting bolts may be required.
Riser requirements depend on wheel size, truck height, deck shape and riding style. Check your complete setup for adequate wheel clearance and compatible mounting hardware before riding.
