Sam Beckett Setup FAQ
What deck does Sam Beckett ride?
Sam Beckett rides a Opera Skateboards 8.75 deck in a 8.75" width as of 2026. Deck choice is the single biggest factor in a pro's setup — width affects stance and stability, while concave and construction drive pop and flick. You can shop the same Opera Skateboards 8.75 deck through the buy links in the setup above.
What trucks does Sam Beckett use?
Sam Beckett uses Thunder Trucks trucks. Trucks determine how a skateboard turns and how it lands grinds, and pros typically match hanger width to deck width for proper alignment. Most pro skaters stick with one truck brand for years once they have the feel dialed in.
What wheels does Sam Beckett ride?
Sam Beckett rides Bones Wheels wheels. Wheel size and hardness drive speed and grip — smaller, harder wheels favor technical street skating, while larger, softer wheels suit transition, park, and rougher terrain.
What shoes does Sam Beckett skate in?
Sam Beckett skates in Vans. Skate shoes are built with reinforced toe caps, vulcanized or cupsole construction, and grippy gum rubber outsoles for board feel and durability. Pros often go through several pairs a month from heavy daily skating.
