Was just wondering about ply dying? What sort or dye do you buy and do you mix with water? Also what do you use to dye it in, how long to leave it etc?
Any help would be great thanks

Rit dye works best when I dye my decks, you can also use any generic dye at your local hardware store.
I leave mine in for 24hrs + I take it out when it looks good and leave it out on a napkin until it's strong.

If you do hardflips do the bottom ply face you or away in the middle of the vertical flip? It has been bothering me for a while because on some vids the bottom ply face the doer of the trick and some face away.

Did you order it from the Blosom site or Fingersized a while back? Because if you ordered it from the Blosom site then us UK people haven't got ours yet :/ And if you ordered from Fingersized it should be with you now

i do this with my g6e's so idk bout oaks. tape down a piece of standard finish printer paper on your desk, and for like 15-30 minutes while watching tv or listening to music, swirl them around in circles. the paper acts like a fine sandpaper and cleans the wheels. i think mike schneider has a video on it

lol I can't get my oaks too dirty idk why, I gues sit's because I don't ride outside, they only pick up superficial dirt so it comes off
^it's basically this
