| Does anybody have some tips on some good outdoor wheels? My problem with my oak and my plastic wheels is they are picking up to much dirt. So when i ride my outdoor concrete park, i have to clean them all the time.. Hope you guys have some tips, or tricks |

| Just roll you board back and forth on your shirt and lightly push it side to side. making a circle motion. Will clean them right up. |

| FBisFun did a helpful video about rolling Joycults on fine sand paper, then on tape to clean them. Works really well.
I've found that Joycults and Oaks are my favorite for concrete/outdoor riding. |

| Any wheels you use outdoors are going to pick up dirt. Sometimes the best wheels to use for outdoors are just china wheels, cause they're cheap, and they get the job done. If you have a lot of wheels, then by all means use some better quality wheels. But china wheels are the most practical for outdoor use imo |

NO SAND PAPER! The wheels will get smaller if you do that ... A regular paper sheet does the work ... make circles like they said, and its enough |
