Yaks aren't that amazing?

[Brian Boston]

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?

wow your bitching about a yak(about $10.00) not lasting u a whole damn year....
mine last me maybe 2 weeks...
go ride a park( not banks and stuff) and then come abck here saying how gay they are.haha

i find yaks r fine, they're fast and smooth.exactly what i want.don't ride them if u don't like them.

Damn i didn't even catch the year thing. I would be so happy if i could ride a wheel that last a year, decks don't last anywhere near that long. And your talking about plastic and urethane taking a beating from ramps and drops, if a back wheel lasts more than a month for me i'm happy.

[AJ]

mine have been lasting... and they are like super smooth to me... so i wouldnt say that... if you think so then thats fine... but not to me... lol

 

[bobbyf]

one of my old yaks broke today =/ .... it was like 3 month's or riding tho so its ok ... when are the new yaks comming out ?

 

[Kenny O.]

Hopefully soon, I think someone said its already been six weeks sooo, it should be soon

 

[gorrilaman]

I think its only been 3 or 4 weeks.

My riding is really soft and cute lol. Stock wheels have lasted me since day 1 when I got my scooter.I did not like the look so I run a 100mm white urethane with red core wheel at the front incase its weak.

Good for me haha. Kinda sad that I don't ride hard though.

 

[Travis House]

I loved my yaks. It took a really long time ti snap them and they never slowed down. I ride a lot of park and creative street things (not huge huge 9456024 sets)

 

[gorrilaman]

Thats cool Travis. Street to me is not really just stairs. Some people just keep going stairs but like for me , if I do stairs , I do it only a few times just to see if I can do it or not. Once I know I can do it , I go try something else and once in a while , if I go pass that stair set or something , I do it.

Thread officially changed to "street not being just stairs"

The only time I do stairs on street is when I do them backwards, so I'm not doing massive sets (at least not always ) just like manuals and fakies on stuff.

 

[jazmatazz]

i love the challenge of a good set haha
