wheels

Are they cheapo off brand wheels? If not, your buddy needs to learn to be smoother. I don't even break a set in at least two months.

i usually go through wheels rapidly until i find a pair that are sturdy and then i ride those for a couple of weeks until they break

i hate wen i get air bubbles. my last set lasted me forever, then i broke all 5 spokes, and could still ride it for like 2 weeks
 
i have some razor 14 spoke wheels, theyve lasted forever. ive broken 3 decks on them and there still fine, not even a crack, there amazing

if you totally reinforce your deck, deck won't break anymore (mine is so strong! and my fork too) but the wheels! damn, it's breaking all the time

I've only broken two or three wheels but I've broken like 8 scooters. It's weird because my friend has never broken a scooter but goes through wheels all the time.

if you break wheels alot but not decks then i think it might mean that you land sideways or carve alot because that is hard on wheels but no the deck.
 
thats wut i thought well at first his brake was bent a littlle and he didint know till after he looked at it and saw it was slicing into the wheels and all the wheels he broke are the five spoked or four or w/e ones but after he fixed the brake he still broke one more wheel

cool..i carve alot and ive never broken a rim, i think i did tear off the rubber once but its so fun when u slide the back out like sideways..haha i love doing it and you keep going

i run a big rimmed wheel in back so the rubber dont break off when i carve or somthing but a small rimmed wheel in front so the rim doesnt crack this method works the best for me. small rim wheels in back dont work as well, they flexx too much but you will also probably not break the rim..

my friend scott b has this pair of wheels from like last year and all the spokes are broken but they smashed together so hard that the wheels are like unbreakable its nuts
 
You all should put JB-Weld in your wheels. that shit works hella better than bondo it is just like having a wheel with no spokes at all. there bomber
