Surfskate Wheels: different types and how it affects the flow or slide?
Вставка

- After the last few videos talked about truck and decks, it is time about the wheels. The different edge, size, hardness, design, material or shapes affect how you ride your board.
The video only talks about the first 3, how it affects the flow or slide. For example when I do small bowl and slide, I will use a round edge, midium hard (80a), medium size (70mm) wheel (cos I have 80mm wheel for my 42 inches board 🤣); when I go downhill tar road, it will have to be completely different wheel.
Pls write down any tips that I missed. Subscribe to my channel and I will make more video to share what I know.

Fantastic explanations, I enjoyed how in depth you went
Subbed , thanks for the explanation. Really helps me to understand better. Appreciate your time taken to make this video.
hey Gan it's me again. i go downhill behind my house everyday, and its surface is the jalan tar. lately, im beginning to learn slides.i'm no hardcore,but i use lots of small slides to slow down the hill. but slide all the time with my cheap blank wheels RM80, 3 weeks it has begun to wear out already.(thin).What hardness, and brand would you recommend me to use? i don't want ones that gets thin quickly on the tar. anyways great content - from Taman Melawati
I am sorry, I am not good with brand, and hardness don't guarentee its durability. I am sure many glider will know better 😊 apologize, can't help much 🙏
@@islandgan appreciate it ,no problem. Thanks again!
Interesting! :)
Hey man thx for this.
But as I was sliding on rollerblades in a street inline skating. I used to go with other rule.
Of course harde = easier to slide but
Softer = harder to get to a slide but much more control during a slide.
Is it = in skate board's?
Best wishes
Depending ur degree of 'soft', bcos surf skate soft wheel is really soft.. There will be a drag infact but again if hard wheel going again smooth surface, then it slip, different situation.
Your explanation really broaden my horizon, allowing me have a new perspective of surfskate wheels selection
@@fotobread please watch other video about those info, as knowing more will certainly add more fun into it 😊 same with my snowboarding experience... 😊
