Product Blog: Planktoon Fingerboards – TOP Trucks

September 4, 2017 by MartinB. | 3:15 pm

As I told you in my last review about the Planktoon galaxy barrier, I´ve received a pack-age from Planktoon Fingerboards straight outta Indonesia.

Planktoon is a company which improves their product step by step. I´ve received the last trucks of trucks from Planktoon in 2012. Back in the days these trucks were better than Tech Deck trucks and tuned with screws and better bushings. Today I will show you the next chapter in Planktoon´s fingerboard trucks history. A giant step forward and some couple of years latter: professional trucks from Planktoon – THE TOP TRUCKS:

These trucks are the latest step in Planktoon´s truck history. A lot of fingerboarding evolution went down in the last couple years and these trucks combine all the features for a set of professional fingerboard trucks.

The trucks got a brand new and strong baseplate. The hanger got a single axle and the whole truck is equipped with locknuts. The hangar is 32mm wide and the axle is long enough to work with dual bearing wheels. For some sorts of single bearing wheels you need the classic fingebroardstore.de extender.

The bushings are some kind of o-rings. They remember me on the old riptape bushings in medium soft. The whole truck turns really well and I think you could use a lot other bushings on these trucks. Just try it!

The hanger is covered with some solid black paint. This should be a hard coating and will last as on any other lacquered truck too. Much grinding = less color :-D

Overall this is a really good fingerboard truck. The screws are solid, the hanger is solid and the baseplate is solid + locknuts. Good job Planktoon.

As normal on professional trucks, these trucks are a bit more expensive than Tech Deck trucks. On the Planktoon website Top Trucks are available for 52$. As we all know, this is quite a normal price for a set of professional fingerboard trucks. Get them right here: Click!

THX a lot for this nice set of trucks!

Product Blog: Planktoon Fingerboards – Goodies

September 2, 2017 by MartinB. | 1:16 pm

A couple of days ago I´ve told you about the package from Planktoon. Today I will show you two new goodies from Planktoon.

The fingerboard keychain:

Planktoon - Fingerboard Keychain

and the fingerboard bag:

Planktoon - Fingerboard Bag

To be honest, we´ve all seen these goodies at other companies before. I won´t complain about this because empirically this is “normal” in the fingerboard scene and in a lot other scenes. I even won´t complain about this because Planktoon is a fingerboard company which supports fingerboarding in Indonesia and even worldwide. All the big contest like Fast Fingers or BATH were supported by Planktoon and even small sessions or online contests.

Some shortfacts about the fingerboard keychain:

These keychains are available in black and brown. The clip seems to be very solid and the rest of this keychain is made out of leather. It is suitable for hanging your fingerboard down your pants, key or whatever. You could buy this keachain right over here: Click!

Some shortfacts about the fingerboard bag:

This fingerboard bag has many uses. You can insert 2 fingerboards and your tools inside. It´s comfortable to use everywhere and pretty simple. This one i a well made one in solid black with a metal logo on one site and a strong clip. You could buy this bag directly over here: Click!

In my opinion both items help your fingerboard to survive the daily struggle on your adventures. A cheap solution to take your fingerboard with you.

THX a lot for these goodies!

Product Blog: Planktoon – Galaxy Barrier

August 30, 2017 by MartinB. | 5:20 pm

Last week I´ve received a big big letter from Indonesia again. This package was sent by Planktoon Fingerboards. A lot of goodies in the package AGAIN and today I will start with part one.

Planktoon Fingerboards are not only making decks, they create ramps, rails, trucks and everything. Today I will show you the Planktoon Fingerboards – I would call it – “Galaxy Barrier”:

Planktoon - Galaxy Barrier

This ramp is handmade by Planktoon Fingerboards. It´s formulated from high quality ingredients that had been tested durability. I would call the material urethane/plastic but I really don´t know what it is exactly.

This small barrier/parking block thing makes your park more colorful and is fun to ride. If you think this ramp is dedicated to slappy tricks only = you´re wrong. It´s small enough for every slappy you like and big enough for really skilled riding. And for sure it slides like butter!

Check out the Planktoon webshop and order something really cool for you park and/or you fingers.

I really appreciate the fact, that Planktoon from Indonesia sends packages for many years now. This company shares a lot more stuff with fingerboardTV than some other companies, even from Europe. I really don´t take this for granted and really really appreciate this!
