This doesn't include:

The set of G-Bones I flatspotted after a centimeter of wear.
The set of 81A Flys I cored.
The set of G-Bones I wore down a centimeter.
The set of Invertz I flatpotted into oblivion.
Or the many, many sets of wheels I've burned in races.

Edit:

The Kryptos were all 85mm at one point and the 76mm Flys were ridden for 2 days till I reached the core point and they weren't fun anymore.

Not sure how he managed to do it, but the road we were riding are 8 miles long and fast as hell. So dirty bearings + old and tired wheels might have been the reason. Luckily he didn't hurt himself

All of his kiddie fanclub members would clamor for them.
