Amazing review of Skatetech Torque Block with Toe Riser done by @jawn.theplant - big shout out!🙌🏼 Perfect setup showing how the torque block can be mounted in various directions, also angled and trimmed the sides to match your deck. Eiither with the low side under your toes or the taller gas pedal side under your toes - your choice. I originally designed the torque blocks so the taller side would be under your toes, so when you're in a tuck, you have a nice ramp to press against, then you pivot your heel to the lower pocket for heelsides. But you can mount the high side and low side either way. The middle profile matches the arch of your foot perfectly. Personally I've been liking the low side under my toes, angled slightly, which almost acts like a foot orthotic and is really comfortable on long runs and provides fantastic leverage.. Shown is a 1" tall Torque block and 8mm tall toe riser. Message me if you want a torque block, toe riser or footstop!(see other posts for examples) Will customize for extra $. . . . . . #skatebording #longboarders #skategear #skatedecks #dhskate #downhilllongboarding #skatefast #skatecrunch #longboard4life #freestyle #downhillskate #freeride #zealousbearings #3dprints #dhlongboarding #skateandexplore #skate #dhskateboarding #longboardlove #viciousgrip #longboarder #eboard #esk8 #electricskateboard #beachdays #electricskate #skatelife #iloveskateboarding #thanelines #skateboarddesign taken in San Diego, California by @_skatetech_

This is my gold standard torque - unlike anything else on the market.  Contours to the foot perfectly in a tuck or leaning into a hard heelside or toeside turn/drift. Orientation Difference: LOW SIDE UNDER TOE: You have a nice toe pocket to press against for heelside, and a blended ramp for tuck leaning. The higher heel gives great leverage during heelsides/drifts(don't have to squat as far), while still having a nice ramp while tucking in the middle.(most common setup) HIGH SIDE UNDER TOE: if you have the high side under your toe, it acts like a gas pedal with a ramp in a tuck. rolling your foot down, you have a lower pocket to press into for heelside drifts/slides, mainly for bombing, but rider preferance. Size:4"x 8.5" or 9"W - Or custom width(Max 9") Height: 1" or 0.75" Colors: Black🖤 or Blue🩵 Specify: LOW SIDE UNDER TOE: LEFT or RIGHT Side - OR - HIGH SIDE UNDER TOE: LEFT or RIGHT Side Can easily be trimmed to match your board. Comes with 4"x9" velcro to mount(trust me, it won't move). A lot of complex CAD work went into the design to match the foot and arch shape. Material(TPU): flexible enough to conform to any board geometry but stiff enough that it won't squish under load, or deteriorate over time. "Toesides have become effortless from the leverage." @couchslide, "I normally don't like torque blocks, but I could get down with this one" To order: Add product to the cart on this page, it'll send me a DM and to notify me that you're interested and we can work out all the details.

The Shark Tooth Torque Block🦈🔥 Very stoked on a new addition to my kit and very excited to be on the @_skatetech_ team! A solid 3d print, this torque block has a comfortable heelside width platform over to a toe pocket that inspires less monkey toe and minimal foot adjustment while riding. @_skatetech_ @shangang.boards @scythe_gear @riptidesports @88wheelco taken in Cleveland, Ohio by @_skatetech_

Torque blocks Galore!  All shown are for Sale.  All of these designs are different iterations I've made, trying to find the best shape to fit your foot.  There is a lot of complex geometry that went into the shape in order to make it as comfortable as possible yet also getting the most leverage.   Comes in either: 1" or 0.75" tall, tapering and curving around where the arch of your foot rests. Tallest section has a 4" Wide(gas pedal) to rest your foot on during a tuck. The middle section has been perfectly contoured to match the shape of your foot. So, while rolling down to heelside, it becomes a smooth transition, staying locked in, yet easily able to pivot. Material(TPU) is flexible enough to conform to any board geometry(W, Concave, micro drops) but stiff enough that it won't squish under load - or deteriorate - unlike Venom's or many others on the market.  That way you'll feel the road better too. The material can EASILY be trimmed to match your board using a razor blade, scissors or strong shears, without ruining the structural integrity of the block  I can also custom round the back corners to match your tail(see pics), and I already have some designed this way, just ask. Custom modifications will add a little more in price - but this will likely be the last torque block you'll need. Size 4.5" x 9" | Colors: Black or Blue Comes with strong 4" x 9" piece of velcro to figure out placement(trust me, it won't slide or come off). Message and we can figure the details out or contact me through here or my main account @josh.hilgart . . . . #skatebording #longboarders #skategear #dhskate #downhilllongboarding #skatefast #freestyle #downhillskate #freeride #dhlongboarding #skateandexplore #skate #dhskateboarding #longboardlove #viciousgrip #longboarder #eboard #esk8 #electricskateboard #beachdays #electricskate #skatelife #iloveskateboarding #thanelines #3dprinted #techforyourdeck #skatecrunch #eskateboard #eskate taken in San Diego, California by @_skatetech_
