wheels

[dreads3213]

wow 110? how long have you been riding those?

 

[Dylan Kasson]

like on and off for a month

 

[dreads3213]

well this might shed some light into it...

probobly bent cups on your headset that happened to me ounce i got mad and smashed my back wheel on the ground and the handlebars bent

(taken from i need help... thread).
doesnt really seem like you had much respect for wheels to begin with which might help explain why they break so fast.

[Brian Boston]

your not catching your whips or somthing

 

[Dylan Kasson]

no i catch all my whips now doubles singles as you can see in the clips section

 

[Steven_T]

K, then your jes a sketchy ass rider with bad luck or something.

 

[Thomas Agasid]

Yeah, Try to compress your wheels a little before riding them hard. Like Kc does go bomb down a hill and apply pressure on the brake, or just manual and use the brake and rotate the wheels. It has helped me alot, if I don't mine tend to break faster.

 

[kyle christensen]

exactly.

 

[Dylan Kasson]

i think i found the ultimate wheel they used to be light up but now they dont work solid core! the only problem is the urethane might peel off eventually o well heres a pic

i used to have a wheel that had the same core. it lasted me a a few months.pretty good wheel.but i'll stick to yaks.

 

[Brian Boston]

i had a set of them, the rubber all cracked

 

[razorrider02]

i had a wheel like that and if the urithane peels off just get all of it off and ride the rim it works good for temperory use and rides suprisingly smpooth

 

[Dylan Kasson]

lol are you joking wouldnt that be really slippery?

 

[razorrider02]

i never rode it on a concrete park but for street it was ok and i dont know if it would work for that because mine was just plasctic and then the solid rim it didnt have the wholes that helps keep the rubber on but if it breaks you should give it a try its not as bad as you think it would be

 

[brandon Franklin]

its easier to break stuff in street than park if your a good transition rider and you can flow good

 

[Brian Boston]

i did it before and was sliding all over the place haha, you have to slam like everything you land

 

[dreads3213]

i know someone at my park that did that and it sounded like a lawnmower every time he rode and he tried to do a stall and when he landed back in the back end got all squirrely

you should try and get wheels with more spokes it gives you more support

Kryptoniks go fast but break easy
