I got a new deck (plan B) and new trucks (silver) today for xmas and i have put it all together but when i stand on the board the tail makes a cracking sound but there are no cracks on it. Does this happen with new boards and does anyone know why this is happening?

it doesnt normally happen.. are you sure the noise isnt coming from the new truck rubbers? as that does happen until they're worn in.. also.. u didnt do the truck bolts up too tight did ya?

It is definately the deck and i checked the bolts they are ok

odd.. i just realised you're from somerset too...
i also got a plan b board for xmas...

where are you based?

This happened to me once, it was the trucks...
i undid the bolts and put them back on and it stopped

hope this helps

This is probably the truck bushings or the hardware. Your board will not make a constant cracking sound, because that is nto possible unless it is cracking all the time (which you would notice). Check your trucks. It's not your board, so don't worry about it really. But like diaboli said, just take off the trucks, check everything, pop em back on.

Its the bushings on your trucks for sure, its quite common for them to creak. Dont worry about it, it stops once they have worn in and you dont really notice when your riding the board.

ahh cool not far then... if you check out the footage section you can check out our scene video.. there is some footage of stuff down the big set at millfield school.. sure you'll have heard of that? we're banned from the premises now.. lol

that noise is probably coming from the bushings nothing to worry about wel at least i think its not it didnt concern me

Serapth Knows All (not quite but anyway) and has resolved the problem, Now we can let it die instead of telling each other where we live, thats why we have PM

get a life.. and if you look i said it was the truck rubbers first

i know that, what do you mean by get a life, youd have no idea how i spend my spare time, i can say the same for you.

go skating!
dont worry!
be happy!

Yea Dude!!!

My trucks (not that new) made an crazly loud creak noise. But i found it was the part of the trucks were the metal ball thing goes into rubbing against the rubber. I put a tiny bit of skate lube into the hole and the creak went. I know this may have been stupid idea but it works if u re-lube it every so often and it hasnt affected there performance at all.

I skated it a couple times and the noise went
Plan b decks rule

Element is a sick company. I'll back them any day of the week.
