You can use this baseplate and pivot cup with every Sabre longboard hanger ever made, going right back to 2008.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 28 degree pivot angle is very slack compared to most longboard trucks. This means that it leans a lot more and turns a bit less than a \"regular\" longboard truck, which usually have a pivot angle of 40-50 degrees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you already have a set of Sabre trucks, you can buy one of these to convert your board into a \"split angle\" setup, which has a lot of benefits:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"item-49 first\"\u003eEasier to Pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"item-50\"\u003eCarves with more lean, closer to the feeling of a snowboard or surfboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"item-51\"\u003eMore agile at slow speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"item-52 last\"\u003eMore stable at high speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are converting an existing Sabre setup to a split angle system, you also need to:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChange your bushings on the front truck to be softer than you would usually run, and adjust the truck so it turns as much as possible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRun a harder bushing on the rear truck than you normally would, to create a solid platform for pumping and carving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck your board for wheelbite before you skate.
