does having lower trucks (such as krux downlows) lead to your tricks being lower? what difference does it make to your skating?

nice name. ride the wings of pestilence! <3 FFTL. doesnt do much to your flatground skating but helps for grind tricks like feeble, smith, crooked and etc.

what do you mean it doesn't help on flatground skating? (which is the only thing I do since I'm not at the level of doing big stairs, rails, etc..)

They won't make you better at flatland then you already are.

krux downlows have a low kingpin, it has nothing to do with the whole truck's height

for one, krux downlows are mids, they just have a low kingpin. and as for lows, i think flatground tricks are much easier with them, less momentum and weight. but i just dont like them, its harder to pop high with them. plus they dont turn to good.
