Independent Stage 11 Standard Trucks Silver | 215 (Pair)
The widest Indy for big old-school and pool boards.
The Independent Stage 11 215 is the widest truck Independent makes. It has a 10.0" axle and a retro Stage 4 style single wing hanger, sized for wide old-school, pool and cruiser decks from 9.5" to 10.5".
It keeps the classic 55mm Stage 11 height with an A356 T6 aluminium hanger and baseplate, an SCM435 chromoly steel axle and a Grade 8 kingpin. Responsive 90a cushions give the smooth, stable carve Indys are known for, and the 6-hole universal baseplate fits both old and new school hole patterns.

What Size Board Does It Fit?
Match the truck's axle width to your deck width, ideally within about 1/4" either side. Too narrow feels twitchy and unstable; too wide and the wheels stick out past the deck and catch your feet. Here is Independent's official size chart for the Stage 11 range, including the 215.
| Truck size | Axle width | Best board width |
|---|---|---|
| 109 | 6.9" | 6.25"–7.6" |
| 129 | 7.6" | 7.4"–7.8" |
| 139 | 8.0" | 7.8"–8.2" |
| 144 | 8.25" | 8.2"–8.375" |
| 149 | 8.5" | 8.375"–8.6" |
| 159 | 8.75" | 8.6"–9.0" |
| 169 | 9.125" | 9.0"–9.5" |
| 215 | 10.0" | 9.5"–10.5" |
Between sizes? Go with the narrower truck for a quicker flick and the wider one for more stability.
About Independent
Independent Truck Company was founded in 1978 by Richard Novak and Jay Shuirman, the pair behind Santa Cruz Skateboards, together with Fausto Vitello and Eric Swenson, whose San Francisco company Ermico Enterprises manufactured the trucks. The first Indys came out that year, and the brand is still based in Santa Cruz, California.
Today Independent is the truck most skaters picture when they think of a skateboard truck. It is known for a stable, predictable turn, a hanger that grinds smooth and a lifetime guarantee under the motto Built to Grind. From the classic Stage 11 to the lower Mid and the featherweight Forged Titanium, there is an Indy for street, park, bowl and old-school shapes, and they all feel familiar the moment you step on.
FAQs
What size board do the Independent Stage 11 215 trucks fit?
Boards from about 9.5" to 10.5" wide. The 215 has a 10.0" axle. As a general rule, keep axle width within about a quarter inch of your deck width.
Do the Independent Stage 11 215 trucks come as a pair?
Yes. You get two trucks, enough to set up one skateboard, with kingpin nuts, axle nuts and bushings fitted. Mounting hardware (bolts) is not included, so grab a set of 7/8" or 1" bolts if you don't have them.
Do I need risers with Independent Stage 11 215 trucks?
Usually not. At 55mm tall, Independent says Stage 11s clear wheels 56mm and under. If you run bigger or softer wheels, or ride loose, add a 1/8" riser to stop wheelbite.
Why choose a 215 instead of a 169?
Width. The 215 has a 10" axle for decks around 9.5" to 10.5", while the 169 tops out around 9.5". On a wide pool or old-school deck, the 215 puts the wheels under the rails for a more stable, natural carve.
How tight should I set my Indys?
Start with the kingpin nut just snug enough that the bushings sit firmly in the cups, then adjust a quarter turn at a time. Looser turns sharper but can wobble at speed; tighter feels more stable and gives you more pop off the tail. Never back the nut off so far that it isn't fully on the kingpin thread.

Why Buy from Twelve Board Store
Twelve Board Store has been riders selling to riders since 2013. We are not a generic retail chain — we are a specialist board sports retailer built around genuine product knowledge, real rider experience and the kind of after-sales support that only comes from a team that actually uses the gear they sell.
Every brand we stock, we ride. Every recommendation we make comes from real experience — on the mountain, in the park, on the street, and on the road. When you call us, you talk to someone who has been on a snowboard at Hotham last weekend or a skateboard in the carpark this morning. That is the difference between buying from Twelve and buying from a warehouse with a website.
We offer services that no online-only retailer can match. Our in-store workshop handles snowboard waxing and tuning, boot heat moulding, electric skateboard and e-bike repairs and assembly, and warranty support handled in-house rather than shipped offshore to a call centre. If something goes wrong with your gear, we fix it. If your boots don't fit, we sort it. If you ordered the wrong size, we swap it — no questions asked.
Our showroom at 435A Bridge Road Richmond stocks the full range across snowboards, bindings, boots, skateboards, longboards, electric skateboards, e-bikes, outerwear and accessories. We offer free shipping Australia-wide on orders over $89, AfterPay and Zip for flexible payment, and fast dispatch so your gear arrives when you need it.
Over a decade in business. More than 1,000 reviews. The most trusted specialist board store in Melbourne. If you need advice before you buy, call us on 03 9421 2293, visit us in-store, or contact us online — we'll get you sorted.
