Hey everyone, This is me newest video^^^

I Have been riding Yak Mechanics for a Few months, and i thought it was pretty bad people still see them as "junk cheep wheels" Because Yak really stepped up their game on wheels and are producing really nice, and still affordable wheels. This entire video was filmed while riding Yak Mechanics, hard urethane (great for street) but are still are grippy on ramps, perfect hardness in my opinion, lightweight cores, and good looking design. They have lasted me over 4 months with no de-hubbing at all, no chunks not even small ones, and no cracks or dis-formation of the core. I would highly suggest these wheels, so get yourself a pair at shopECX.com so check it out and tell me what you think, comments and likes on the video are appreciated lots, thanks!

thanks for the comments everyone, and i did land that rail at 28, the first angle was actually my third angle where i landed it clean, and the second angle my actually my first land. but yes the first time my foot slipped out because that landing isn't pavement, its loose rocks.... but it was fun and i rode away so idc haha i landed it cleaner after on film so in my book its all good :)

you are the first person to ever call me clean! hahahha, and yeah i hate it too thats why i made this video, i hope more riders choose yaks as their wheel of choice like i have especially for street. i have never had a wheel not tear up like yaks don't besides twizzlers, but they are twice the price and i think yaks look better. Thats why i love my sponsor shopECX, the owner Mike Lashbrook took notice of how the wheels changed, so i tried them out and all of their new stuff is super legit! So try and get yourself a pair, being half the price of normal wheels it doesn't make sense to me why you wouldn't get them!!

I am going to be honest, I used to hate your riding, but your style has really started to develop and I loved this video man. Just don't get too into those backflips, keep riding street.

I loooove this video, your riding is pretty unique. I liked that long boardslide to 270 out, and the briflip over that grass gap in the beginning.
