The Bruko Wooland review

Almost two years ago we rode the Bruko 50 Free during our trip between Slovakia and Czech Republic . The board holded up extremely well and we could skate anything that we ran into: sidewalks, parks and hills. Back to Italy we spoke a lot with Bruko about the shape of the deck and finally they came up with a new symmetric, more functionnal model, the Wooland. we mesured it: L 96cm W 23cm WB (inner holes) 46 cm old school truck mounting We rode it on Independent 169, bones hardcore medium bushing, and Retro Freeride 86a / Orangatang Fat free 86a. an Earthwing Crewzer 38 and the Wooland 40 side to side The finishing and the handcrafted details are beautiful, the kicks rise gently and are less steep that the classic street decks.

May add some rising pad to skate loose but the wheel wells still do their job, matching perfectly with the indys. I'm currently running a set of Independent 169 trucks, Abec11 retro freeride 86a / 3dm cambria 62mm 78a.
