[gjdadj]

My Slider and Gripper are a year and a few months old. They have taken a beating and still go strong.

You have worse luck then anyone else on here with parts haha

 

[Keenan Still]

excuse me? correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure metal core wheels need to be worked in before you ride hard on them. the glue has to settle in and properly bond before you go riding hard. i have had a proto slider for a year and a half and it still has no signs of dehubbing. you have no right to call me an idiot.

diss is not true in my opinion

I'd like to know how long that'd hold up for

 

[Broccoli1]

what skatepark do you usually go to?

Culver City- 5 mins from work or 10 mins from home

Makes it easy on me

I'll keep ya posted- as I want to know as well.

Considering there is no post weld heat treating, I'm not sure..but since these decks are not heat treated to begin with (from what I've read recently) might not make a difference.

The other thing of interest is that the Deck Aluminum did not fail- the welds cracked right down the middle.

I just don't have enough experience with Aluminum to make a comment as to why. Trying to figger it out.

I mean, compared to a professional, theyre sloppy, but for doing them himself, they're amazing haha. My friend welded me a camera handle, and I had to tape up all the welds, because I woulda gotten tetanus from that thing ahhaa

 

[Rob.]

Is that even necessary? Why compare him to a professional?
Those welds look damn fine to me.

When you post in the new tricks thread do people go "Well thats nice, but a professional could do those tricks with no problem"

Good idea I would like to see how long that would last I have a shit load of alu diamond plate at home

 

[KyrinBingaman]

I like the plate better than the original gusset for some reason lol
