Real 1/8" Riser Pads (2Set) Universal
Product details
The Real Skateboards 3-Ply Riser Pads offer a functional solution for optimizing board geometry and performance. Made from three-ply, stained North American maple, these pads replace traditional plastic components with a natural material that provides a more direct riding feel while being environmentally friendly. With a thickness of 0.3 cm (1/8 in), they increase the distance between the deck and wheels, minimizing the risk of wheelbite. This added height not only allows for the installation of larger wheels but also improves leverage during pop due to the altered angle. The precisely centered 4-hole pattern ensures an optimal fit for most common trucks.

What advantage does wood have over plastic? The use of maple wood provides a more organic, natural riding feel and represents a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional plastic pads.
What screw length is needed for installation? For the installation of these 0.3 cm (1/8 in) riser pads, mounting screws with a length of at least 2.9 cm (1 1/8 in) are required.
Are these riser pads suitable for very large cruiser wheels? These 3-ply pads are ideal for standard setups. When using wheels larger than 6.0 cm (60 mm), it is recommended to use the thicker 5-ply variant.
How do the riser pads affect the pop behavior? The increased height raises the distance to the ground, allowing for a steeper angle during pop and enhancing the board's responsiveness when jumping.
