How come out of interest you use both?

the micros reduce wheel friction against the chinese hangers (tested with and without), the others protect against the chinese nuts.

ahhhh, fair enough

Yep. I haven't bothered with them on my brts or ys.

Ys r kewl

If you ride on concrete does it mess up your wheels?

Like outdoors yes!!

What is wwith the new format?

Depends how much sliding, but mostly no since we go at a slow pace, not really enough to wear wheels down so much

i think it messes wheels up....other than oaks. (which riding outdoors makes them better)

i used my winklers on that marble at the Trafford center and it just scratched them up and really made a difference i think. its noticeable anyway.

Thanks guys.
I Made a set of concrete bleachers and I'm kinda scared using it because it screeches a lot :/

you were really getting into those wallrides :p

haha yeah i was

but no good for my wheels

yea, some marble I seshed in plymouth made a big difference to my substance quartz, they're like 230498234 louder than what they used to be, so now they're just outdoor wheels. Weird how you think marble is mega smooth but it can still fuck up wheels if its not 1000% polished : o

Finn it does if you have wheels like winklers or roll 9s and you're seshing outside and stuff but if you sesh something like a pheon curb then it actually cleans the wheels and makes them smoother (happens to my substance THCas haha)

Anyone know where I can get the Harrier transition curb other than on flatface?

aside waiting for the very infrequent restocks on FBS, or buying one second hand, you have to go to the brr store in berlin, or go to an event. Shame, I'd love one too but they're never available

You could buy a pheon transition curb for £12, pm finn s

^ that but I'm not entirely in stock and Im trying to sort out the transition curbs so they have more of a transition.
It's the same mold just not flattened yet haha.

they might be instock on swat, i would check there..but it's a hassle to pay them..

Yeah, I saw the picture of the curb, but it looks more like the Harrier wallie curb (or whatever it is called) and I'm after something more like the transition curb, i.e. more like a tiny quarter pipe.

Yeh I'm working on that

anyone know anything about this
http://www.skatedeluxe.de/product_info.php/info/p29111_Trap-Skateboards-Ice-Cream-Fingerboard-purple-brown.html it says it's made by berlinwood ? It's from early 2009 so im guessing its a bwom

I've never tried Blackriver trucks or y-trucks, and I was wondering how they affect your performance? I know obviously that they are great and everything, but could you tell me exactly how they better a set-up? I'd like to know before I spend half of my "paycheck" on trucks haha

I have 2 sets of blackriver trucks and a set of y-trucks I can't see any difference other than the shape I really wouldn't say they are worth the money.

well they're easier to grind with and BRR's arnt special but i got 3 pairs of Y's unused (im not using them for reasons) and i got a pair coming to use

they are good for wheels as they dont shred the backs i think but other than that they're just a complete waist of money

they don't go all weird like one truck tilts one side and one truck tilts the other it doesn't do that and really

Finn they are from 2009 remember the trap graffiti deck its like that if u fbd then i only started in 2010 though lol
