Abstract

A skateboard truck includes an axle assembly which is quickly detachable from the truck mounting pad by means of a tension bolt fitting within a slotted bracket in the mounting pad for quick detachment therefrom. The skateboard truck assembly is provided with tension screw assembly that is mounted at a less than 45.degree. angle with respect to the skateboard and includes adjusting means for adjusting the pivot axis of the assembly with respect to the skateboard, totally independent of the adjustment of the tension in the assembly. A safety bracket includes a base portion with an arm having a cylindrical bore for receiving the cylindrical outer end of the tension bolt for reducing the stress on the board or tension bolt during the steering of the skateboard.
