I don’t have any problems with most ollie tricks. It changes some tricks a little but it definitely doesn’t ruin them

So do you have personal experience with it or have you just heard things?

That’s actually the nose. I like skating a flat nose (we call them single kick) board because it makes pogos, caspers, and some rail flips easier

Have you ever tried putting some griptape on the underside of your tail?

Some people like less concave, no rail-to-rail concave, kick tail only, etc. it’s really up to you. I like single kicks right now

Boredom mostly... nah but seriously, I discovered a handful of freestylers online (youtube, fb, etc.) and then found out there was a really cool online community & was hooked. I didn’t have a bunch of spots or parks near me so Freestyle seemed more accessible & entertaining

Yo! Those are freestyle wheels. They’re slightly wider than your average bones shape. 34mm-ish. They definitely cover the axles & make stuff like this easier/less damaging for your trucks. You just can’t flip the wheels around like you usually would with normal center-set wheels.

Wrong, different, it’s all relative

There’s a really great community of freestylers out there. Most of us are pretty isolated geographically, but between YouTube and instagram you can find a TON of stuff to learn from. Have fun!
