I need suggestions on how to make my fork, or whatever it is that spins when you do a tail whip spin faster, its like slow and hard to get it to spin. my friend recommended pouring rubbing alchohol on it, but i know i can land tail whips again if it spins like a littl faster. any suggestions on what i should do to it cost free???

dude. seriously. look in the scooters section. and think before you post, i guarantee every problem you will have there will be someone else who has had that problem, and their will be a solution in a thread.
i can't find the page sohere is a easy way to do it
1.take your shaft and fork off.
2. take the caged bearings and clean them off if there is gunk on them.
3.take the bearings and let them sit in a cup of rubbing alcohol.(only for a few minutes about 5.) DON'T LET THEM SIT OVERNIGHT!.
4. take them out and make sure not to bend them and dry them with a paper towel.
5.clean the cups in your scooter out, just take a paper towel and make sure theres no dirt or gunk in them.
5.put the bearings back in make sure to place them on the right side or they will brake. you can tell when there right.
6.put the fork back in and tighten your shaft and your done.
if you have any other questions just ask

only can really do this if you have acess to ceramic balls the size of caged ball bearngs
or old ceramic bearings i used mine from my old rush ceramic bearings
the ceramic is more smooth and spins super smooth
1. take the caged bearings out.
2. be VERY CAREFUL and push the little metal balls out very carefully make sure not to bend the cage.
3. get ceramic balls from someone im sure you can buy some offf someone.
4. pop those balls in the cage and be careful
5. put them in some rub. alcohol for a few minutes wipe them off
6. put them backin and your done

It doesn't really increase with speed much, unless it's ultra loose.
or you could always loosen the top cup a bit and it will spin better
