I am obsessed with skating and I am obsessed with making these RUFFCUT episodes! I hope you enjoy watching them and if you do, please consider supporting me by joining the SQUAD on patreon.com/rollife alongside Lawrence Ingraham, Julian Luginbühl and Glume Apparel. THANK YOU GUYS!

I think anti with larger outer wheels is the way to go. I'm on 62 at the moment (not that big really) but gonna put 65's in soon. Great content keep it coming.

Thanks man! Yeah it's not like riding flat but it's skateable... and I love it for grinding, of course!

I'm enjoying this series of videos. Cool to see your customisation, I quite like messing around with wheels and frames too, I guess its part of being obsessed with skating

I like to keep it simple though but this little mod makes a big difference for me ^^

I just fitted 68's on some Remz Josiah Blee with GC FLT3 frames! Only a bit of shaving on the base of the frame and in the soulplate at the heel, about 1mm. They just fly.

I'm going to do 64mm Famous wheels.

I hope you come back with some née content, you have talent!

It’s a really cool feature that GC don’t really advertise. 64mm is the biggest these frames work with no modification on soul plates with no wheel wells. I have shifts now which have wells and was wondering how much I’d have to remove to get in 68’s! I don’t think I’d skate any smaller than a 64 minimum anymore now I’ve got used to the speed they provide on anti rocker. Loving these ruff cuts btw, the editing the music and that style of talking to the camera in a short format with tips and thoughts are great. ✌️

Thanks man, I appreciate it! For the 68's it's really just a tiny little bit you need to carve out of the base (as you can see at 1:58 ) and, depending on the wheel wells, you might not even have to do too much there... I imagine it's similar to what people do in order to fit 72's in Oysi frames.

rollife perfect, have a good day!

I also modified my kizer fluid IV frames which is also an anti rocker frame, to fit exactly the same wheels 68mm Richie Eisler, they go amazing but I don't know if I weakened my frames, right now I'm using my stock wheels 58mm because for me it is a little fast in the skate park I'm a little bit new to aggressive skating, my plan is to use my 58mm wheels until I get used to skate park and when stock wheels are over switch to 68mm wheels. How is your experience so far? is your frames still in one peace? do you go to skate park and skate bowls and make some jumps? I'm afraid my frames lost some durability, so I don't know how much I could push them, I mainly avoid big falls because in fear of maybe frames could be broken

Fresh! Ich mache dasselbe schon seit längerer Zeit mit dem SEBA-Frame und es ist wie du sagst ein erheblicher Unterschied zu der alten Garde der kleineren Wheels. Mit 68mm Wheels ist der Speed sogar grösser als mit einem Flat-Setup mit kleineren Aggressive Wheels! Zudem kann man so auch Geld sparen, weil es auch sehr gute 68mm-Freeskate-Wheels gibt, welche wesentlich günstiger sind als Aggressive-Wheels. Warum Letztere so teuer sind verstehe ich sowieso nicht. Von der Qualität her merke ich jedenfalls keinen Unterschied zu Freeskate-Wheels. Cooler Spot mit den Betoncurbs... Wo ist das?

Auf guter Unterlage ist es speedtechnisch vergleichbar mit einem 60mm flat setup würde ich sagen. Allerdings ist das kleinere flat setup immernoch wesentlich smoother bei Unebenheiten. Es ist schon noch ein zienlicher Unterschied zwischen flat und anti rocker, natürlich vor allem in den Turns... allerdings ist dieses anti rocker setup mit 68mm ziemlich erträglich vom Fahrgefühl her.

Mate, what do you think about skating flat on flt3?

@rollife

It's okay for skating rails and maybe skateparks but I almost exclusively skate street ledges... There are many frames out there that are better for skating flat. This frame is designed to skate anti rocker.

What about freestyle on flt3

How much modification for 68mm FLAT though? Also interested in 65mm flat..

@rollife

Not much. A tiny bit on the frame base (literally like 1-2mm only) and a little bit on the soulplates if you don't have wheel wells already. Just check the detailed shots in the video, you can see how little it is. There's nothing better for 65mm flat than the Groundcontrol Mega frame, so I would recommend that. I just always struggled to find good 65mm wheels, so I settled for a 60mm flat on the USD Aeons right now.

@@rollife I can see how little the mod is for 65mm in your video, but what about 68mm on the inner?? Would it be too much modification? Thanks for reply and the great video btw! I am interested in a cruiser frame. Im loking at possibly getting 68mm flat into FLT3, or 65mm flat if that fails. I also want to try getting 68mm into GC Mega...do you think it could be done?

@@GeorgeWPush you can't fit more than 58mm in the middle on the flt3. You'd have to cut out half of the h-block to get 68mm in positions 2 and 3. What I did is put 68mm in positions 1 and 4 (that's where my little mod comes into play) and anti rocker wheels in the middle.You also can't put 68mm in the Mega frame. only 65mm. If you want to fit 68mm in the Megas, you'd also have to cut into the h-block, which hardly makes sense. In a nutshell: Yes, it's almost always possible to fit bigger outer wheels than the frames are designed for, but trying to fit bigger inner wheels is not a good idea.
