Yaks aren't that amazing?

Who else besides me thinks this? I bought a 100 Yak in the back (lol, rhyme) and it lasted me as long and maybe shorter than a normal wheel, and I couldn't use it till the very end because it was soooo slow when it started cracking. My 110 Yak on front is also starting to crack and I hot glued it, and I haven't even had it a year. My last front wheel lasted over a year, through at least 3 scooters.

So yeah, I think they're a waste of money, the only reason I'd buy them would be for the bigger size. Anyone else feel this way?

14 sopke razor pro wheels and micro metal cores are basically the best wheels right now. Im runing an old 100mm yak on back because i had like 6 left over and those last around 3-4 months. Im on my last one and quickly need to find a solution to the ypcoming wheel problem.

Micro metal cores are cool for like the first month... they are way too slippery and wear down too quick.

I don't understand how you people break wheels so easily. Start riding faster, and break you wheels in before you start tricking them. I just had to switch one of my low pros that i started riding on Christmas, took awhile to break.

i have ridden yaks since i started scootering like there my first pair of wheels beside stock wheels i rode.
i love there feel and i went through stock wheels like once a month so i ordered yaks and i just loved how i couldn't
dehub them or crack them. but i gave them to my freind afer riding them for a summer and he cracked them in like another 3 monoths after that.
and he rides a little harder then me and he cracked them.

sorry but yaks are really dank in my opinion... wtf wheels were you riding alex a year wtf... anyway i hate razor wheels there always sqeeking and fuckin up on me and ride slow. i like 110 yaks on front and back cause they make you mob hella fast which i like. i dont like pumping alot and if i do pump alot ill be mobbing with yaks
 
fucking right....i put on a brand new 100mm yak in the back (hehe) and it broke within 5 minutes. i was pissed. </3..i think 110..might be stronger or something

I bought 6 100mm yaks in June '06, and i only managed to broke 1 of them. One is wore down a lot. And that's it. I think they rock.

Did you ride any wood bowls or pools with them? I know you ride alot of 'crete. I would get towards the top of a bowl and my back wheel would slide out. Mine are so low now i don't bother riding them, they are so worn out. I have 100mm ones from over the summer, no print on them. I don't know if they changed the hardness since i got mine, because they started getting micro printed and shit on them a few months after.
