Show me... abused wheels!

[kjc6]

at what point in time did you realize that you have 5 wheels.....?

Thank you for making me lol

It looks like he flatspotted one and ordered a new one at Stoked.

Pretty much.

I'm still riding the same set of Slide A's I used at SlideFest. These things went through absolute hell that day and are still holding strong at 51mm. Mad props to Brian for making some toughass wheels!

they only get better as they shrink.

[Longbord1]

I disagree. The slide wheels are best when they are just broken in. The more you slide them, the grippier they get.

[Alpha06]

Slide a's slide like crazy and grip less and less as you get closer to coring them...

[Longbord1]

The complete opposite is true....

Explain to me, how a wheel while gaining contact patch will slide more?

My brand new slide As slide much better than my dead ones.

it has more to do with the thane depth than the contact patch
