I just realized that some people hate on Nollie Wheels. I never heard of that, and I'm wondering why. ? Somebody?

don't know the full story, something to do with them copying berlinwood's mold. This was ageeeees ago though.

I have nothing against them, they make good wheels and that's what matters really wink to me anyways

lol im sure he didnt make this thread to hear "long story bro" please explain geek
As far as i know they teamed up with wicked stix who copied berlinwoods mold or something, i still don't see how that should make nollie hated, they just made a bad decision.
Thats all i know and it would be cool if someone gave the actual story!

You can't tell a story of what got a company hated in a magazine Bobby...

+ I personally like their wheels, copy of BW or not.

But yes, they did copy their mold, and still do today. Rory says his nollie deck is the same mold as his BW OM.

yeh the story i was told was that nollie wheels and wicked sticks made an exact replica of the mold of the bwom and they tried to bribe the carpenter lots of money to give them their mold but luckily they did not succseed but their mol is incredibly similar to a bwom :\ i might buy one because ive always dreamed of having a bwom very happy but nollie wheels are not a bad company i have a set of heir non bearing wheels and they roll just as well as g6's and are incredibly smoooooooooottthhhhhhhh

That would be the downfall of a great mag.

This story is getting on 2 years old. Srsly. Hate them or don't hate them, your choice. I choose to strongly dislike them.

yeah Kerry just beat me to this.....thats totally not what you would want to put in the mag.....advertising a hate campaign? not a good idea.....

i know the story, to what extent i dont know, but i choose not to support nollie wheels....

true bobby, but you dont know how true it is....you could run it i guess, if you had first hand proof/was involved with the story from the offset, but as it is, you know nothing more about it than me saying to put a part in the mag saying
'Danny Hyman has a small penis'.........because i told you too..... tongue

I would be really interested in reading the story, but it might make you lose some business.

Maybe if you do both sides of the story, it might be better. Rather than "Why everybody hates Nollie Wheels", do "Fingerboarding History: The Nollie Wheels Controversy"
