Try a bastard file. No, I didn't just say it cause it said bastard, that would be the best most clean file.

I just used a round file. Any type of file will work :).

Just dont use a square or rectangle one, cause they give shit finishes, use a round one.

Thanks.
 
a pre big round one. the bigger the better, comes out rounder lol , i did mine with a tiny one and it was bumpy as fuck! but it does the job haha

I filed mine down with a rectangle one, it looks shit but did the job. My 100mm wheel scraped. I was like WWWTTTFFF? So I filed it like 2mm and it worked and I was like YEAH MOTHERFUCKERS. I was so happy so I went to the skatepark and watched a kid try to barspin his bike onto a matress and miss and crash. I was like YEAH MOTHERFUCKER and he was like ILL FUCKING KILL YOU and I was like OH FUCK. So then I shut up and he didn't say anything. Then I aired the 12 ft about 1 ft above the coping and i was like YEAH MOTHERFUCKERS and then some other noob kid with flouro griptape come and went higher than me and I was like WWWTTTFFF? So then I tried going higher than him in the halfpipe and hit a pepsi can and the kid who missed the matress was like YEAH MOTHERFUCKER and I was like SSSTTTFFFUUU and he was like OOOMMMFFFGGG THIS KID IS A WANKER. Then we played follow the leader and he said I was quite good so I said THANKS MOTHERFUCKER and he was like THATS COOL MOTHERFUCKER. So now everyone knows us as the MOTHERFUCKER BROTHAS.

Not true BTW, I just took up story writing

If your joking I still don't understand why you said that, it had nothing to do with anything and it wasnt even that funny.

Sorry for the massive bump but nitro rcs how long did it take you? My friend got some 110's today so we spent 2 hours filing the fork and only took 4-5 millimeters off...

I know we have been doing it for ages and we seem to be getting no where.... Does pushing down hard help much?
