Why buy Mindless Boards?
What materials do Mindless decks use?
Many boards feature a combination of maple for strength and bamboo for flexibility. Some models include fiberglass layers or carbon fibre stringers to enhance stiffness or reduce weight.
Are Mindless longboards good for beginners?
Yes. Models like the Mindless Tribal Rogue or Surf Skate are user‑friendly, offering stability and predictable handling. Their moderate wheelbases and soft wheels make them ideal for new riders.
How do I choose the right wheel for my Mindless board?
Consider your riding style. Softer, larger wheels (78A–83A, 70–74 mm) provide a smooth, grippy ride on rough roads. Harder wheels (86A–88A, 60–65 mm) are better for sliding and technical freeride.
Do Mindless boards come with quality trucks?
Yes. Most Mindless longboards come equipped with their own branded trucks, tuned to match the board’s intended use. They use reverse‑kingpin designs for stability and carving.
Can I customise a Mindless board?
Definitely. You can upgrade wheels, bushings, bearings and even the trucks. Make sure to match the wheel size to the deck’s clearance to avoid wheel bite.
How do I maintain my longboard?
Keep bearings clean and lubricated, rotate wheels to even out wear and tighten trucks as needed. Avoid water exposure, as moisture can warp decks and rust bearings.
Are there Mindless boards for downhill racing?
Mindless produces some drop‑through and drop‑deck models suitable for downhill, but competitive racers might prefer specialised boards. Their freeride models offer enough stability for moderate downhill speeds.
