The truck profile is an indicator for the distance between the bottom of the skateboard deck and the center of the axle.
In general, a Mid-Profile truck will work well for most freestylers. High trucks are usually preferred for rail tricks, as it creates a more stable platform for them. Low trucks provide extra stability for flip tricks and may be preferred by some hybrid freestyle skaters.
Here are some general measurements:
| Profile | Axle Height |
|---|---|
| Low | 48-53mm |
| Mid | 53-56mm |
| High | 56mm+ |
