i bend axels sometimes, but not too much. i just get over it haha. you end up getting so many from scooters over time its not like you run out.
 
Dude, same here! I've never broken one before, but this year (and end of last year) I have broken 3! 2 of them were at SB, the other Walter. Lol, every time I broke one, I managed to find one laying around some kid's scooter...

:D hahaha.

EDIT: The first one sucked so bad because the wheel got stuck inside and it took me about 45 minutes to get it out. I was at a lock in too.

I snapped 1 but i always got spares, like a axle/bearing peg on my fork and a front axle on my headtube so I'm always set!
Btw Jdbug axles and brake bolts are FTW!

I still have a clip of David Fross doing a tailwhip off this big three block, snapped his axle. It's in the RVM4 credits.
