    At first I thought you said "sliding in really tights pants". And the third pic did nothing to make me think I was wrong.

    I don't think that guy will be able to have kids when he's older.

    someone really needs to make a real slide wheel for longboards bigger than 65mm... the day someone releases a center set 70mm 100a wheel I'll order a gross.

    till then, its no skoolz and back stocked spitfires for me.

    I hope some company makes wheels to those specifications just so you have to buy 144 of them.

    the wheels I described (70mm 100a centerset) would make it no problem to do a 720 slide on a 46 inch board. I can pull it off on 62mm spitfire salbas (98a?) on a steep enough hill, but I have to go into it hauling ass. with all due respect it would take a pretty rediculous amount of speed to pull something like that on flywheels or strikers, I don't even think I'd want to go into an unnecessary slide with that much speed.
