Kenny Anderson Setup FAQ
What deck does Kenny Anderson ride?
Kenny Anderson rides a Chocolate Kenny Anderson 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 Chocolate Kenny Anderson Pro Model 8.25″ deck through the buy links in the setup above.
What trucks does Kenny Anderson use?
Kenny Anderson uses Independent Trucks Stage 11 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 Kenny Anderson ride?
Kenny Anderson rides Satori wheels. 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 Kenny Anderson skate in?
Kenny Anderson skates in Converse CONS. 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 Kenny Anderson use?
Kenny Anderson uses Hard Luck 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.
