I am a street skater. And tell me what bearings are good other than swiss.
Independents and Bones are the best
you can't beat companies that've been around over a couple decades
since the ceramics from bones are bit expensive the reds are a good choice of bearings to buy since they're cheap, ride smooth, and last fairly long if u take care of them.
if you're willing to spend around $40 for bearings get the swiss's because they'll be worth the money

I am looking into starting a recycling program in my neighborhood where I will take unwanted trucks from skaters and then take them to a recycler.
Yes, they can, but there might be a better option. Think about ways to re-use them.
You could use the wheels to make toy cars, and give them to younger kids to play with.
You could even make skateboards out of them…then give them to other less fortunate kids.

I have a deck that is 7.5 x 31.4 what size trucks do I need for this deck. I was looking some up and there were sizes like 3.0, 3.5, 4.0. Which one of these would I need and what do they mean?
at skateamerica a lot of them are size 7.75 is this in the same scale(?) as the other sizes?
4.0-5.0 or no bigger than 129mm. The 4.0 means 4 inch hangers and 5.0 means 5 inch hangers with sizes in this range you'll keep the wheels under the deck without being able to see tham when you're standing on it, this is how most people have their setup, some are measured in inches and some in millimeters.

I bought a complete skateboard online, and one of the trucks fell apart. The trucks are monster brand, and weigh 3 lbs when the whole skateboard weighs 4. (I checked) Should I get a refund and buy lighter trucks, or just get replacements?
P.S. The company that made the trucks doesn't make any lighter trucks, just the kind I got in different colors.
Replace them with grind king trucks.

i tend to break my trucks or bushings when i ollie large gaps or grind ledges. i do not weigh a lot im 14 years old and 122 pounds. i have good technique too. does anybody know why this is happening? i have already broken phantom 2 and indy trucks. what are the most durable trucks?
ive been skating for 11 years and truck quality changes more than anything else in the sport. when i first started, gk was number one, but the last couple pairs i had were pos and quickly broke and the bushing was garbage. when tensor came on the scene, they were the best at the time, but i had to stop using them due to axle slippage before they were even broken in. now i use INDEPENDENT kostons or reynolds. they hold up amazingly and are lighter than my last pair of gks. weight was a huge issue with the old indys. the way they last is unprecedented, seriously.

I've been looking at ebay and have found a few Destructo trucks, what is the best type of Destructo trucks to get?
Well theres rreally no "best" destructo out there but it depends, if you like low trucks go with the destructo low, but if you like mids, go with the destructo mid magnesium, they're new, stronger and lighter. So my choice would be the lows or those mids, because the regular mids my friend has and hes having real problems with them.
