Sean Malto rides a Girl Skateboards G052 custom shape 8.25, mellow concave, bigger nose deck in a 8.25" width as of 2026.

What trucks does Sean Malto use?

What wheels does Sean Malto ride?
Sean Malto rides Spitfire Wheels Formula 4 (51mm or 52mm) wheels in 51mm. 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 Sean Malto skate in?
Sean Malto skates in Nike SB. 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.
