4. Setup and Pre-Ride Check

Your Hudora Instinct Skateboard comes pre-assembled. Before your first ride and periodically thereafter, perform the following checks:

1. Truck Tightness: Check that the kingpin nut (large nut in the center of the truck) and the axle nuts (on the ends of the axles holding the wheels) are securely tightened. Adjust the kingpin nut to control turning responsiveness – tighter for more stability, looser for sharper turns.
2. Wheel Spin: Ensure all four wheels spin freely without excessive wobble. If a wheel does not spin freely, check the axle nut for overtightening or inspect the bearings for damage.
3. Deck Integrity: Inspect the maple wood deck for any cracks, splinters, or delamination. Do not ride a damaged deck.
4. Grip Tape: Ensure the grip tape is firmly adhered to the deck and provides sufficient traction.

5. Betjeningsvejledning

Learning to skateboard requires practice and patience. Always start in a safe, open area.

• Holdning: Place your front foot over the front truck bolts, pointing slightly forward. Push off with your back foot. Once moving, place your back foot on the tail of the board.
• Balance: Keep your knees bent and your weight centered over the board. Use your arms for balance.
• Drejning: Lean in the direction you want to turn. You can also use your heels or toes to apply pressure to the edges of the board for sharper turns.
• Stopper:
  • Fodbremse: Gently drag your back foot on the ground.
  • Tail Drag: Press down on the tail of the board to lift the front wheels and drag the tail on the ground.
  • Bailing: If you lose control, step off the board safely.

6. Vedligeholdelse

Regular maintenance will extend the life of your skateboard and ensure safe operation.

• Rensning: Wipe down the deck and trucks with a damp cloth after use. Avoid getting the bearings wet.
• Lejepleje: If wheels become noisy or slow, bearings may need cleaning or replacement. Consult a local skate shop for professional bearing maintenance.
• Hardwarekontrol: Periodically check and tighten all nuts and bolts, especially those on the trucks and wheels. Do not overtighten axle nuts as this can damage bearings.
• Wheel Wear: Rotate wheels periodically to ensure even wear. Replace wheels when they become significantly worn or chipped.
• Opbevaring: Store your skateboard in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to prevent deck warping or material degradation.

7. Fejlfinding

• Squeaky Trucks: This is common and usually harmless. It can often be resolved by applying a small amount of wax or specialized skateboard lubricant to the pivot cup and bushings.
• Wheels Not Spinning Freely: Check if axle nuts are too tight. Loosen them slightly until the wheel spins freely but has minimal side-to-side play. If the issue persists, bearings may be dirty or damaged and require cleaning or replacement.
• Board Pulls to One Side: This often indicates uneven truck tightness. Adjust the kingpin nuts on both trucks to ensure they are equally tightened, or replace worn bushings.
