Hello ...

I'm have drive 15 years no Skateboard but Yesterday,
I'm drive first time in a half- Pipe !

WOW that's a fun !!!

I'm dont know, what the difference between the diameters / toughness from the Wheels to effect !

Here in Germany, it isn't a popular Sport and I think, the most sellers here , have no knowledge too .


To drive on street , my old Skateboard was much better than my new !
The new board to slow down extreme by rough pavement . :cry:

What are good Wheels for half-Pipe ?

What are good Wheels for the Street ?

Please help.


Best wishes from Germany
Werner :rolleyes:

softer wheels (smaller) for half pipe

And slightly larger and harder wheels in street. For street u dont need good bearings, u could use just some crappy ones, but for half pipe get some nice ones.

BTW: half pipe boarding is EXTREMLY difficult. Its easy to go down, but impossible to ollie.
 
Hello...

Oh no !

The ollie in the Pipe, is to hard for me to this time !

But I'm surprised that I'm can so good drive , after 15 Years without Skateboard !!!

Only my first run on the pipe was verry painfully .

I'm hadn't the self-confidence to skate upstanding from the base and to sit down on the board .

I'm would like to check only, how fast it is.
But the back wheels stoped on the Base edge and I'm to slide with my moon over the Tape :D

Upstanding , I'm to fall the first runs too, but it isnt so much disgracing !
Now I must learn step by step all the stunts !

At my active Skateboard Time, I'm had a longer board with widish axes than now .
This board was verry good to drive long routes . ( Or high speed after a Car )

Best wishes
Werner

By the way, To tis time I'm can verry good grind with my nose at the base-edge !!! :cheers:

Inline-skaters are good for jokes everytime !!!
It looks much moore comic , if they fall down .

The forlorn hope from her attempted rescue by falling , will never end . :D

But the Artistic work / speed and endurance is impressive !

( Sorry for my bad English ! )
 
ok i can help you out with that, get rollerblade wheels for street
They are smooth and fast...

for tricks and halp pipe surface, use 51' wheels, my choice would be flip wheels, they are soft on the ground and give you hight


:) hope this helps
