Ace AF-1 Inverted Trucks — The Next Evolution in Skateboarding
Ace Trucks have always been known for precision and durability, but with the release of the AF-1 Inverted Trucks, they’ve set a new standard. This isn’t just a minor update—Ace has reinvented what a skateboard truck can be. Featuring an inverted kingpin, ultra-lightweight construction, and unmatched grind clearance, these trucks deliver next-level performance for skaters of all styles.
What makes the AF-1 Inverted stand out is the innovative inverted kingpin design. By placing the threads inside the truck, skaters avoid the usual issues of stripped bolts or hanger interference. This ensures more consistent tuning, even after repeated heavy grinds. The inverted system also works seamlessly with Ace’s magnetic adapter tool, which transforms a standard skate tool into an inverted one, giving more torque and smoother adjustments.
The grind clearance on these trucks is another game-changer. With up to 1.75 inches (44 mm) of clearance, Ace provides the highest level in the industry, letting skaters lock into slides and grinds with confidence and fewer hang-ups. Combined with Threadlock Pro technology, every ride feels stable and secure.
Weight reduction was also a key focus. The AF-1 Inverted uses a semi-hollow axle and domed baseplate, cutting unnecessary weight while maintaining strength. This makes flip tricks, ollies, and technical skating noticeably lighter and more responsive, without sacrificing durability.
Riders will also appreciate how responsive and smooth these trucks feel right out of the box. Thanks to Ace’s custom bushings and recessed washers, there’s virtually no break-in time—skaters can bolt them on and start ripping immediately.
Early reviews from both pros and everyday riders have been overwhelmingly positive. Field tests have praised their precision turning, grind feel, and overall control. One skater even called them “the best trucks in the world,” highlighting both the design and the quality build that Ace is known for.
With all of these innovations, the Ace AF-1 Inverted Trucks aren’t just a new option—they’re the future of skateboard trucks. They combine style, strength, and groundbreaking technology into one package that skaters can truly rely on, whether in the streets, park, or transition. If you’re looking to upgrade your setup, these trucks will give you the edge you’ve been searching for.
