We assemble all of our drop-through completes with these 1/16" shock pads to prevent damage to the deck. They also help reduce road vibrations for a smooth and quiet ride. Also handy for topmount setups as a lightweight shim for vibration damping and wedging adjustments.Includes four (4) drop-through shock pads (enough for one complete skateboard).

Way Smoother Ride
I had to cut a slot in these for them to fit with my Randall RII’s, but that was accomplished easily with a sharp pocket knife and some careful cutting. That being said they made a world of difference. In my estimation with drop through trucks all the vibration from the street is transferred directly to the top of the board. When trucks are mounted to the bottom of the board you have your weight directly on top to dampen the vibration. My ride was rough until I installed these and they helped tremendously. I mounted them on top of the board under the truck on my drop through deck. There is no reason to put them anywhere else and that is precisely where they are intended to go. If you are wondering why you ride is so rough give these a try. The next thing I’d try is some softer wheels if you still aren’t satisfied. These worked out great for me.

You NEED these!
If you have a drop through board and Paris trucks, or any other truck that has raised metal labeling, you need these. Get them right now, they're worth it. Look at the picture, you can see that running my Loaded Icarus without them caused the logo to be embedded into the bamboo deck. You don't want this to happen. When I noticed it I made my own spacers out of a used plastic container, then later realized this product exists and bought it immediately.Pros: protects drop through boards from damage from raised lettering. Good quality rubber.Cons: none.Comments: - Due to how common drop through decks are, I'm surprised that truck manufacturers haven't switched to engraved logos instead of raised, which would solve this issue. Either that or include the spacers with the truck. Paris does neither, they really should. - Check out my second picture, I originally found this problem when I was doing a countersink mod on my trucks and replacing all hardware with stainless steel. Oh yeah.

Will buy again
Mount it with washers on under side of drop through boards. Don't mount it on top like some are saying. The washers are 5 cents each or less at your local hard wear store. Harder wheels, better slides, and better ride with these bad boys. They will show slack when tightened down, that's normal. Don't forget to often make Shure your trucks are snug. Reason 4 stars is these are very universal possibly could be better fit but I use these on a few different kind of boards and fit is descent on all. could be harder rubber and better fit if less universal ones were available but price would be higher guaranteed. I will buy these again. You ever ride barefoot? Well you shouldn't but these are nice to have for that.

Yep!
Hey, these little half cent pieces of rubber did what they were supposed to do.Not sure I would purchase again. Probably just cut my own out of a scrap pace of bicycle inner tube.

Great
These are not risers they're just meant to protect your board from your trucks. They work great but I had to cut out some of the rubber to make them fit my trucks, no biggie tho

Absorbed the bumps
I recently bought a 28 inch drop through deck, and man did it ride rough. I could feel every nook, grain or crack in the road. Now that I put these on my drop through, it's been perfect.The only regret I have is only purchasing one set. I should of bought a minimum of two.

Solved a finicky walkthrough problem
This was the only solution for a walkthrough / truck combo with a tight fit. If the truck is wider or has any side supports this is the only thing that worked without modifying the board.
