@ejlopez6637 Жыл бұрын
Tic tacs are what wear out the toe side front wheel. Even if you ride loose trucks, you’re bound to do little tic tacs when doing little turns. It’s usually the back ones. Because your front foot naturally dips towards the toe when you turn, you usually drag your front wheels even if it’s just for a fraction of a second before you put your wheels back down.

@robertblackmore703 Жыл бұрын
Same- front toe. It’s just from riding flat ground. I think my normal weight distribution is a bit more toe side than heel, and my front truck is my turning truck so it’s a bit looser and takes more weight. Also, if I’m turning around it’s easier to turn backside than front, so I do it more often.
@brycekeith5653 Жыл бұрын
My front toe side wheel also is always the first to cone. I assume just from a ridiculous amount of fakie pivots. Every time I don’t land a trick I usually step back on, roll away switch and then do a fakie pivot to regular before trying again.

What exactly hurts in your knees? I was watching a Chad Caruso video yesterday, and he said that as he's now pushing across america (3000 miles in total), and by day 6 his knee issues somewhat lessened (he said he re-tore his meniscus 6 months ago). Also, i have hypermobile knees and have kept off skating for the longest time because im still a bit heavy at 240 ish pounds), but i feel like i've been missing out on knee strenthening excersises, and thus missed out on ways to strenthen my body. Maybe you could start doing excersises to strentgthen whatever issue it is that you're having too?

Have been a fan of both Powell Peralta and Independent Trucks for decades now. Only trucks will ever buy and other than maybe 1-2 other companies only decks I buy or skate, one other company being the OG of the industry Santa Cruz (VX decks or Everslick ©) I still mess with truck height and I'm 43 but do prefer the mids as well in Hollow's or Titanium.

superhero crossover episodes are the best
Ben said his front toe side wheel are the smallest one. Its the same for me, and toe side wheels in general takes more pressure for me. I would guess its just how you skate, or if your board wants to go a bit left as a regular skater you might put a bit more pressure toe side high up on the board when you push especially 🤷🏻♂️ Anyone else who get one smaller wheel after a while?
Mine cone front toe side as well. Nollie shuvs ? Heel flips?
Ben , please do a review on the Slappy hollows . Thanks . God bless brother !it's
Back toeside. I do lots of shuv it's and 360 reverts.
Ben is a cool dude
Dan spending the whole paycheck on a fresh fit for Papa Ben's channel 👌 Those 2.5 subs just clocked over to 3.
I have one of your old Canadian skate shops decks you named the Voldemort deck. Before I got the deck I was skating my old one every day trying to learn the Ollie and messed up my knees. I never got a chance to skate it because I was afraid to hurt my knees even more. I'm probably gonna start skating again soon. Wish me luck

What exactly hurts in your knees? I was watching a Chad Caruso video yesterday, and he said that as he's now pushing across america (3000 miles in total), and by day 6 his knee issues somewhat lessened (he said he re-tore his meniscus 6 months ago). Also, i have hypermobile knees and have kept off skating for the longest time because im still a bit heavy at 240 ish pounds), but i feel like i've been missing out on knee strenthening excersises, and thus missed out on ways to strenthen my body. Maybe you could start doing excersises to strentgthen whatever issue it is that you're having too?
Dan and Victor are some rippers for sure ~ Great video ~
my front toe sides wheel also wears out quickly. I think it's because of tic-tacs and kickturns
Front toe side for me, it's from kick turns on banks, similar to what Dan said.
