The rear wheel system permits each of the pair of rear wheels to alternately move toward a front portion of the board responsive to a force alternately urging each of the pair of rear wheels toward the underside of the board. The front wheel system includes a pair of front wheels (54) that are mounted on a front axle (72) that is rotatably attached to a mid- truck (56) such that the front axle is movable about a first axis of rotation (84).
