• Garage — your parts inventory. Everything you own, active or retired.
• Quiver — your setups. One or more boards, each with parts assigned to positions.
• Setup diary — automatic version history of every setup. Every change is saved as a snapshot.
• Ride log — manual ride entries or Strava sync. Mileage flows automatically to the parts you had installed.
• Analytics — dashboards and queries built from your ride and gear data.
• Profile — your public page at ldpworkshop.com/username.

Tap the Add Part button in the Garage. This takes you to the community catalog — search for your part by brand or model. If it's there, select it and confirm. If it's not, tap "Add custom part" and enter the details yourself.

Custom parts work the same as catalog parts for tracking purposes. You can link them to the catalog later if the part gets added.

Go to the Quiver and tap "New setup." Give it a name, then add parts to positions (front truck, rear truck, deck, wheels, and so on). You don't need to fill every position — add what you have.

When adding parts to a setup, you can choose from parts already in your Garage or browse the community catalog directly. Adding from the catalog creates the part in your Garage automatically.

The Garage is your inventory — every part you own, whether it's installed or sitting on a shelf. The Quiver is where you build setups by assigning parts from your garage to specific positions on a board. A part lives in the Garage and can be assigned to a setup at the same time.

Yes. LDPWorkshop is a PWA (progressive web app) — it works in any modern browser and can be installed to your home screen so it opens full-screen like a native app. No app store needed.

• Android: open in Chrome, tap the menu, and select "Add to Home screen."
• iPhone or iPad: open in Safari, tap the Share button, and select "Add to Home Screen."

LDPWorkshop is currently in limited beta. All features are available to beta users at no cost. Pricing will be introduced when the app opens to the public — a free tier will always be available.

Tap the Add Part button to go to the community catalog. Search by brand or model. When you find your part, tap it to see its details, then confirm to add it to your Garage.

Adding from the catalog links your part to the master record — so specs, photos, and any catalog updates are shared. You can still override individual fields (weight, purchase price, notes) on your own copy.

If your part isn't in the catalog, tap "Add custom part" from the catalog screen. Enter the brand, model, part type, and any specs you want to track. Custom parts work identically to catalog parts for mileage tracking, setup assignment, and everything else.

If the part gets added to the community catalog later, you'll be able to link your existing garage entry to it.

You can add up to 3 photos to any part in your Garage. Open the part, tap the photo area, and upload from your camera roll or take a photo directly. Part photos are for your own reference — they are not shown on public pages.

Setup photos are separate. You can add up to 6 photos per setup, and the first photo is shown as the cover on your public setup page and in your quiver.

The quantity field tracks how many of a part you own under a single garage entry. Each individual unit within that entry tracks its own mileage and install history independently.

For parts sold in packs — bushings, bearings — the quantity input works in packs, not individual pieces. Enter how many packs you bought and the app calculates the total units. The stepper increments by pack size.

The unit list on the part page shows every unit with its own mileage total and where it's currently installed. For parts with quantity 1, the unit info is shown inline. For multiple units, the list is collapsible.

For accurate independent mileage tracking: if you own two of the same truck and want to know the mileage on each separately, add them as two separate garage entries. The unit list within a single entry is best suited for interchangeable units of the same part (e.g. a set of 4 wheels used across different positions).

Mileage is calculated automatically from your ride log. Every time you log a ride, the app attributes that distance to the specific units installed in the setup you were running at the time.

If you owned a part before you started using LDPWorkshop, you can set a manual mileage offset on the part to account for prior use.

The available count shows how many units of a part are free to assign to a setup. It accounts for all units currently installed across all your setups. When availability reaches zero, all units are in use.

You can mark a part as modified and add notes describing what was done — grinding, cutting, drilling, refinishing. This is a freeform notes field for your own records. Modifications don't affect how the part behaves in the app.

When a part is sold, worn out, lost, or gifted, retire it. Open the part, tap the menu (⋮) in the top right, and select "Retire part." You'll be asked for a reason — sold, worn out, lost, gifted, or other.

You can also retire individual units within a part if some are worn out while others are still good. Each unit in the unit list has its own retire action.

Retired parts are moved out of your active inventory but stay in your history. Their mileage, photos, and setup history are preserved. View retired parts from the Garage menu (⋮) in the top right.

If you retire a part by mistake, or get it back, you can unretire it. Open the part from the Retired parts view, tap the menu (⋮), and select "Unretire part." If you already have an active part linked to the same catalog entry, the app will flag the conflict before proceeding.

Truck type

Describes the kingpin geometry. This affects how the truck steers and which bushing seats and hardware are relevant.

• RKP — Reverse Kingpin
• TKP — Traditional Kingpin
• DKP — Double Kingpin
• Integrated — integrated hanger/baseplate
• Surfskate — surf-style geometry
• Other

Truck construction

Describes how the truck is manufactured.

• Cast
• Forged
• Precision — machined to tighter tolerances; typically uses different pivot hardware than cast or forged
• Hybrid
• Other

Baseplate angle

The angle of the baseplate in degrees. A higher angle gives more turn; a lower angle gives more stability.

For adjustable baseplates — where the angle can be mechanically changed — check the "Adjustable baseplate" option. This reveals three fields:

• Current angle — the angle you're actually running right now
• Angle min — the lowest angle the baseplate supports
• Angle max — the highest angle the baseplate supports

Min and max come from the manufacturer spec if the part is in the catalog. You can override them if needed.

Bushing seat

The shape of the recess in the hanger where the bushing sits. This determines which bushing shapes are compatible. Common values:

• Open / flat — no retaining lip, works with most shapes
• Open / insert — open seat with a small insert
• Stepped — a raised step that cups the bushing
• Insert — a separate insert piece holds the bushing
• Tall (TKP) — a taller seat geometry found on some TKP trucks (SurfRodz, Bennett)
• Machined — precision-machined seat, typically on precision trucks

Pivot type

The mechanism at the pivot point where the hanger meets the baseplate:

• Standard — a standard pivot cup, replaceable
• Pivot cup / tube — a tube-style pivot, common on some precision trucks
• Spherical bearing — a ball bearing pivot, found on high-end precision trucks
• Spherical bushing — Riptide's spherical bushing pivot replacement
• Other

Hanger width

The width of the hanger in millimeters, measured axle-to-axle. Some trucks have adjustable axle widths — the Hanger min and Hanger max fields capture the supported range.

Quantity

Trucks are typically bought and tracked individually. Default quantity is 1.

For accurate per-truck mileage tracking, add one garage entry per physical truck. If you own a matched front/rear pair of the same model and want independent mileage on each, add two separate garage entries.

Brackets mount between your deck and truck and affect the effective baseplate angle. The app tracks several bracket subtypes:

• Adjustable — angle-adjustable brackets (e.g. Apex, Paris drops)
• Torsion tail — tail-mounted torsion brackets (can have negative angles)
• Integrated truck — brackets with an integrated truck system
• Zero/negative tail — tail brackets with zero or negative base angle
• Other

For adjustable brackets, the angle fields work the same as adjustable baseplates on trucks: current angle, min, and max.

Negative angles are supported. A torsion tail bracket at −6° is entered as −6.

Brackets are assigned to front or rear positions in a setup, the same as trucks.

Diameter

The outer diameter of the wheel in millimeters. Larger diameter = higher ride height and more roll speed. Smaller = lower center of gravity and more responsive feel.

Contact patch

The width of the wheel surface that contacts the ground, in millimeters. A wider contact patch gives more grip and smoother roll; narrower gives less resistance.

Running surface

The width of the flat or usable riding surface, which may differ from the contact patch on wheels with a radius or lip profile.

Core offset

Where the core sits within the wheel:

• Centerset — core in the center. Wheels can be flipped to even out wear.
• Offset — core closer to one side. Cannot be flipped.
• Sideset — core at the inner edge. Most offset, typically for sliding.

Durometer and formula

Durometer is the hardness rating, measured in the A scale (e.g. 80a). A lower number is softer and grippier; higher is harder and faster rolling on smooth surfaces.

Formula refers to the urethane compound. Different manufacturers use proprietary formulas — Seismic's Defcon, Orangatang's urethane, and so on. Formula affects feel and performance beyond just hardness.

Quantity

Wheels are typically used in sets of 4. Default quantity is 4. If you buy a pair for a single axle, set quantity to 2.

Each wheel unit tracks its own mileage independently. The unit list on the part page shows mileage and current install position for each wheel.

Shape

The physical shape of the bushing, which affects how it behaves under load:

• Barrel — cylindrical, progressive feel, most common
• Cone — tapered, looser feel, more turn
• Eliminator — tall barrel variant, very stable, used in slalom
• Fatcone — wider cone, more rebound
• Chubby — shorter, wider barrel
• Spherical — ball-shaped, Riptide-specific, sits differently in the seat

Formula

The urethane compound. Most relevant for Riptide bushings, which come in three formulas:

• APS — All-Purpose Slalom. Lively rebound, good for pump and slalom.
• WFB — Water-based formula. Smooth, controlled feel. Popular for LDP.
• KranK — High-rebound formula. Very lively, preferred by some for pumping.

Other brands use their own formulas (Venom SHR, Seismic DEFCON). The formula field accepts freeform text for non-Riptide bushings.

Durometer

Bushing hardness in the A scale. Lower is softer and more turny; higher is stiffer and more stable. Which durometer works for you depends on your weight, riding style, truck type, and bushing seat. The app tracks what you're running — the dialing-in is up to you.

Height

Standard or tall. Some trucks (particularly TKP designs) use taller bushings. Getting the right height for your truck matters — a standard bushing in a tall seat will have slop; a tall bushing in a standard seat won't seat properly.

Quantity and packs

Bushings are typically sold in packs of 2. A full setup uses 4 bushings (boardside and roadside, front and rear). Enter the number of packs you bought — the app calculates the total units automatically.

Each bushing unit tracks its own mileage independently. The unit list on the part page shows mileage and current install position for each unit.

Bearings are tracked per wheel position (front and rear), not per individual bearing. Each position uses 4 bearings — 2 per wheel hub × 2 wheels per axle.

Bearings are typically sold in packs of 4 or 8. Enter the number of packs you bought and the app calculates total units.

Bearing mileage is attributed per position. If you run the same set of bearings front and rear, add them as one garage entry. If you want to track front and rear bearings independently, add separate entries.

Hardware (bolts, nuts, speed rings, riser bolts) is setup-eligible and can be added to positions (front, rear, or general). You can assign 1–4 units of hardware per position depending on what the hardware is.

Hardware doesn't enforce position uniqueness — you can add the same hardware to multiple positions if needed.

Pivot cups and tubes are tracked as individual parts in your garage. The "Compatible trucks" field lets you note which truck models the part fits — useful for reference when shopping or swapping.

Pivot cups are not assigned to specific positions. Add them to a setup as a general component.

Risers and wedges can be assigned to front or rear positions. Spec fields:

• Height (mm) — riser height. 0 for a flat riser/wedge with no height addition.
• Wedge angle (°) — the angle the riser adds to the baseplate. 0 for flat risers.
• Material — rubber, plastic, wood, aluminum, etc.

Tap "New setup" in the Quiver. Give it a name — this is just for your reference and can be changed later. Add parts to positions once the setup is created.

A setup doesn't need to be complete to be useful. Add what you have now and fill in the rest as you build it out.

Positions are the slots on a setup where parts get assigned. The position system reflects how parts are physically mounted on a board.

Standard positions:

• Front / Rear — used for trucks, wheels, brackets, risers, and bearings
• Unassigned / General — used for decks, pivot cups, and accessories that don't belong to a specific end
• Front BS / Front RS / Rear BS / Rear RS — bushing-specific positions (Boardside and Roadside for each truck)

Each part type has predefined allowed positions. Trucks go front or rear. Bushings go to bushing-specific positions. The app shows the correct position selector for each part type automatically.

Tap the add button on any position to open the setup builder. The drawer has two tabs:

My Garage — shows parts you already own that are available to assign. Filter by part type. Parts with no available units are shown as unavailable.

Catalog — browse the community catalog directly. Adding a part from here creates a new Garage entry and assigns it to the setup in one step. You don't need to visit the Garage first.

When a part is added to a setup that already has rides logged against it, the install date is backdated automatically to cover those rides. The mileage attribution starts from the earliest ride on that setup.

To remove a part from a position, open the part in the setup and select "Remove from setup." The part returns to your Garage as available. Its mileage history up to that point is preserved.

Removing a part from a setup doesn't retire it. It stays in your Garage and can be added to another setup.

Weight is calculated from the parts assigned to each position. If a part has a weight in the catalog, that's used. If you've overridden the weight in your Garage entry, your override is used instead.

For wheels, the weight is multiplied by the number of units at that position (2 for a normal front or rear axle). For all other part types — trucks, brackets, bushings, bearings, hardware — the weight of the install row is counted once per position. A truck added to both front and rear contributes its weight twice.

Parts without a weight value are excluded from the total. The displayed weight is a best estimate based on available data.

The feel rating is a subjective score from 0.5 to 5.0 that you can set on any setup to capture how it feels to ride. Half-star values are supported.

On mobile: tap a star to set it. Tap the same star again to drop to a half-star. Tap it again to clear.

On desktop: same tap-to-cycle behaviour — click once for full star, click again for half-star, click again to clear.

The feel rating is separate from your diary notes — it's a quick single-value record of your overall impression of the setup. It's shown on your public setup page if the setup is public.

Open the setup and toggle "Public" in the settings. This creates a public page at ldpworkshop.com/p/setups/[id] that anyone can view without signing in.

The public page shows: setup name, parts list with specs, total weight, feel rating, and the first setup photo as the cover image.

Your public setup page is only visible if your quiver visibility is set to Public in your account settings. Even if you mark a setup public, it won't be visible if your quiver is set to private.

If you're no longer riding a setup but want to keep its history, archive it. Open the setup, tap the menu (⋮), and select "Archive setup."

Archived setups are removed from your active Quiver but their diary, mileage history, and photos are preserved. View archived setups from the Quiver menu (⋮) in the top right.

Archiving is reversible. You can restore an archived setup at any time.

A snapshot is a frozen record of a setup's part list at a specific point in time. It includes every part that was installed at that moment, the position each part was in, and a copy of the relevant specs.

Snapshots are immutable. Once saved, a snapshot is never modified — not even if you later change the part's specs in your Garage. The snapshot reflects what you had and how it was configured at the time it was taken.

A snapshot is created automatically when you modify a setup's parts. Adding a part, removing a part, or changing a part assignment all trigger a new snapshot. Minor edits — changing the setup name or updating a note — do not create a snapshot.

You can also create a snapshot manually from the diary view. Use this when you want to record a note about how a setup feels at a specific moment, without making any part changes.

Each snapshot has a notes field. Open the snapshot from the diary to add or edit a note. Notes are freeform — record what you changed, why, how it felt after the change, or anything else you want to remember.

You can also set a feel rating on a snapshot to capture your impression of the setup at that specific point. This is separate from the live feel rating on the setup itself.

Open a setup and tap "Diary" to see its full history. Snapshots are listed in reverse chronological order — most recent first. Tap any snapshot to see the full part list as it was at that point.

The diary shows what was in the setup at each snapshot, not just what changed. You can see the complete configuration at any moment in the setup's history.

Not automatically. The diary is a read-only record — you can't one-tap restore an old snapshot to your current setup. To go back to a previous configuration, use the snapshot as a reference and reassign the parts manually.

This is intentional. Most riders who revisit a past setup have parts that have since been retired or used elsewhere. Manual reassignment ensures conflicts are handled explicitly.

Snapshot content is controlled by your diary visibility setting. If your diary visibility is set to Public, snapshots are visible on your public profile. If it's set to Private or Followers, they're not.

Even if the diary is public, setup photos and personal notes stay visible only to you.

Tap "Log Ride" from the bottom nav. Enter the distance, duration, and the date the ride happened. Optionally add surface type, perceived effort (1–10), and any notes.

Assign the ride to a setup — this is what drives mileage attribution. If you don't assign a setup, the ride is recorded but no mileage flows to any parts.

Connect your Strava account in settings. Once connected, trigger a sync from the Ride Log or the settings page to import your Strava activities.

Strava imports bring in distance, duration, elevation, speed, and the ride date. User-added fields — setup assignment, surface type, perceived effort, notes — are never overwritten by a Strava sync. Once you've edited a ride, those edits are yours.

Strava sync deduplicates automatically. If the same activity is imported more than once, only one record is kept.

Each ride can be assigned to one setup. This is the link between rides and mileage.

To assign a setup, open a ride from the log and tap "Assign setup." Select the setup you were riding. The mileage from that ride flows to the parts installed in that setup at the time the ride was logged.

For Strava rides, setup assignment is done manually in the app — Strava has no concept of your setup configuration.

When you assign a setup to a ride, the app looks at which parts were installed in that setup at the time of the ride (based on install and removal timestamps). Each installed part unit gets credited with the ride's distance.

This means:

• Parts added to a setup before a ride get credit for that ride.
• Parts removed from a setup before a ride do not.
• If you add a part to a setup that already has rides logged, the install date is backdated to cover those rides automatically.

Mileage is computed from the ride log every time it's displayed. It's never stored as a running total — it's always calculated fresh from your actual ride data.

Open any ride from the log to edit it. You can change distance, duration, date, notes, surface type, and setup assignment. For Strava rides, the Strava-owned fields (distance, duration, date) can be edited in the app but will not sync back to Strava.

Open a ride and tap the menu (⋮) to delete it. Deleting a ride removes it from the log and removes any mileage it contributed to your parts. This can't be undone.

Distances display in your preferred units — metric (km) or imperial (miles). You can change this in account settings. All distances are stored in meters internally and converted at display time.

The top of the page shows five summary cards for the selected time period:

• Total distance — combined distance across all logged rides
• Rides logged — number of ride entries in the log
• Active days — number of distinct days with a ride logged
• Investment — total purchase cost of your active parts
• Active parts — number of parts currently installed across all active setups

Use the tabs at the top right to change the time window: 30 activities, 30 days, 90 days, 12 months, or All time. The summary stats and any pinned lenses update to reflect the selected period.

The lens builder lets you query your data with a specific question. Choose:

• Subject — what you're looking at (e.g. My setups, My parts)
• Metric — how to rank or measure them (e.g. Most distance)
• Time range — the window to query over (e.g. Last 30 activities)

Tap Run to see the results. If it's a query you want to keep, give it a name and tap Save & Pin — it'll appear on the page so you can rerun it without reconfiguring.

Saved lenses appear on the analytics page. Run them again at any time, or delete ones you no longer need. Pinned lenses are personal — they're not visible on your public profile.

Investment is calculated from the purchase prices you've entered in your Garage. Parts with no purchase price set are excluded. If a part was added from the catalog, the catalog MSRP is used as the default — you can override it in your Garage entry.

Additional subjects, metrics, and chart types are planned. The lens builder is designed to grow as more query types get added.

Go to Profile from the bottom nav, then tap Edit. You can set:

• Display name — shown on your public page. Different from your username.
• Username — your URL at ldpworkshop.com/[username]. Lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores. 3–30 characters. Choose carefully — username changes may not be available in all versions.
• Disciplines — check all that apply: LDP, pump, slalom, downhill, freeride. Your first selection is treated as your primary discipline.
• Location — city and country. Freeform city, country from a list. Only shown if your profile is public.
• Skating since — the year you started. Year only, no specific date.
• Social links — Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Strava profile, Facebook, website, Discord. All optional. Links are shown on your public profile if it's public.

Four separate visibility controls, each set independently:

Profile — controls whether your public profile page at ldpworkshop.com/[username] is accessible. If set to Private, no one can view your profile.

Quiver — controls whether your setups are visible on your profile. If your profile is public but your quiver is private, your setups are not shown.

Diary — controls whether your setup diary and snapshots are visible. Operates independently from quiver visibility.

Activity — controls whether your ride log is visible. Distances and ride dates only — no route or GPS data is ever shared.

Each can be set to Public (anyone can see it) or Private (only you).

If your profile is set to Public, your page at ldpworkshop.com/[username] is accessible to anyone without signing in. It shows your display name, disciplines, location, and whatever sections you've made visible (quiver, diary, activity).

Each public setup has its own page at ldpworkshop.com/p/setups/[id]. The setup page shows: part list with specs, total weight, feel rating if set, and the setup cover photo.

Public pages don't require an account to view. They're designed to be shareable — you can post a link to a setup in a group chat or forum and anyone can see it.

Upload a profile photo from the Profile edit screen. Photos are cropped to a square and compressed automatically. GPS and EXIF data is stripped before upload.

Your selected disciplines indicate what you ride. They're shown on your public profile and used to contextualise your setups. The first discipline you select is your primary discipline. You can reorder them on the edit screen.

Current options: LDP, pump, slalom, downhill, freeride.

Username changes are not currently supported from within the app. If you need to change your username, contact support. Note that changing a username breaks any existing links to your public profile or public setups.

Choose between metric and imperial. This affects how distances and weights are displayed throughout the app:

• Metric — km, grams
• Imperial — miles, ounces

All data is stored in metric units internally and converted to your preference at display time. Switching units at any time is safe — no data is changed.

Sets the currency used for purchase price display. Options follow ISO 4217 currency codes (USD, EUR, GBP, etc.). Prices are stored in the currency you entered them in — the currency preference changes display formatting, not stored values.

The app defaults to English. Additional language options will be added in future releases.

Go to Settings and tap "Connect Strava." You'll be redirected to Strava to authorise read access to your activities. LDPWorkshop requests read-only access — it never posts to Strava or modifies your Strava data.

Once connected, your Strava activities sync automatically. You can also trigger a manual sync from the settings page or the Ride Log.

To disconnect Strava, tap "Disconnect Strava" in settings. This does not delete rides already imported — it only stops future syncing. Imported rides stay in your log and continue to contribute to part mileage.

Your account email is the address you signed up with. It's used for login and transactional emails (password reset, invite confirmations). Email changes are not currently supported from within the app.

To change your password, use the "Forgot password" flow at the login screen. A reset link will be sent to your account email.

Tap "Sign out" at the bottom of the settings screen. You'll be signed out of all sessions on this device. Your data is preserved — sign back in to access it.

Account deletion is not yet available as a self-service option. To request account deletion and data removal, contact support. All personal data will be deleted in accordance with our privacy policy.

LDPWorkshop's terms of service are available at ldpworkshop.com/terms. You accepted the terms when you signed up. Updates to the terms will be communicated by email and require acceptance before continuing to use the app.

LDPWorkshop is currently in limited beta. Features may change, and some capabilities are available to beta users that will be gated behind a Pro subscription when the app opens publicly. A free tier will always be available.

Feedback during the beta is genuinely useful. Use the feedback link in the app or reach out directly.
