You'll need . - Scissors - Cheap In-Ear earbuds - Of course ur bearing wheels
Just poke the earbud piece inside out , and cut the part which is not covering the wheel .
Performance
It gives you a really soft and smooth feeling when you ride , it is a lot more quite . the only downpart is when you power slide you may worry it will fall of , the solution is to glue it .
just a tiny bit of glue will do his job.
I hope you all enjoy it!

Interesting. I wonder if anyone tried heat shrink tubing. You could get a tighter seal but could run the risk of melting your wheels or cause your wheels to be wonky/bumpy from uneven heating.

^ eurollt wheels were metal wheels wrapped in heat shrink. They aren't available since about 2004, but I have a set and still re-shrink wrap them when they get haggered.

glad too see ppl still making stuff.. best part of fingeboarding is making your own shit!
Also you can buy urethane tubing in diff durometers and colors.. works pretty damn good.

This looks like such a cool/somewhat simple idea. Has anyone tried this? If so, I want to see pics! lol
