Braden Hoban Setup FAQ
What deck does Braden Hoban ride?
Braden Hoban rides a Toy Machine Hoban Ladouceur Pro Model 8.25 deck in a 8.25" width as of 2026. Deck choice is the single biggest factor in a pro's setup — width affects stance and stability, while concave and construction drive pop and flick. You can shop the same Toy Machine Hoban Ladouceur Pro Model 8.25 deck through the buy links in the setup above.
What trucks does Braden Hoban use?
Braden Hoban uses Independent Trucks Stage 11 Standards trucks. Trucks determine how a skateboard turns and how it lands grinds, and pros typically match hanger width to deck width for proper alignment. Most pro skaters stick with one truck brand for years once they have the feel dialed in.
What wheels does Braden Hoban ride?
Braden Hoban rides Pig Wheels 54mm wheels in 54mm. Wheel size and hardness drive speed and grip — smaller, harder wheels favor technical street skating, while larger, softer wheels suit transition, park, and rougher terrain.
What shoes does Braden Hoban skate in?
Braden Hoban skates in Emerica Hoban. Skate shoes are built with reinforced toe caps, vulcanized or cupsole construction, and grippy gum rubber outsoles for board feel and durability. Pros often go through several pairs a month from heavy daily skating.
What bearings does Braden Hoban use?
Braden Hoban uses Bronson Speed Co. bearings. Bearings determine roll speed and how long your wheels keep spinning, and a properly maintained set should last as long as your wheels with regular cleaning. Pros usually upgrade bearings before swapping wheels.
