What are Risers on a skateboard?

Question

iv herd about risers for a skate board but what are they and what do they do?

Answer 1

they stop wheel bite. They put more space between the board and wheels  so the wheel doesn't  rub on the board.  If you use them you're a poser

Answer 2

Risers are plastic rectangular shaped hardware pieces which raise the distance from your wheels and your deck. theyre really useful when you have a loose board. Risers prevent the wheels from touching the part of the deck that is directly beneath the wheels. Risers range in sizes from .25in - 1.5in tall!  

Answer 3

they stop wheelbite which is when ur wheels rub against ur board which is dangerous so risers are pretty helpful

Answer 4

They make it so your board doesn't slide out from under you as much.

Answer 5

Risers are the small rectangular pieces of plastic, between your truck and your board.

**And you are NOT a poser, if you use them.  They help some to make moves easier......

GOOD LUCK!

Take Care,
