thanks for posting the pic Ramon,(dont know how to do the special "o" thing, my apologies.)
Actually die-casting isn't that "cheap" and you can get much better parts out of it than say. sand casting, like most trucks are...
These things look CNC milled (see the mill lines on the bottom), which is mega bucks for low volume. If these are Stroker style trucks the precision you would need in the parts to make them work couldn't be easily or cheapy done with die-casting for low volume applications.
Take a look at the website, kornerkutter.com, it's a good laugh. They are marketting these things to the flipper market. Marketting a truck the "does a 180 in a 3' radius" to the flipper market where kids want stability and lightweight, not to mention durability, is insane. If anyone would be remotely interested in these things it would be the longboard market, and even then it's doubtful.
Eitherway, they look pointless and over engineered by someone who has no concept of the skateworld.
