Why I Stopped Using Sharkwheels
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 сер 2024
- Love or Hate, they certainly are unique. I've had these wheels on my freestyle board for over half a year. But suddenly, I stopped using them. Here's why.

Actually, while the wheel's shape waves out, the other side waves in, so it doesn't really have a higher surface area. It actually has a lower surface area since you have the grooves in the wheel as well. Its just grippier because of the formula, and probably from any deformation from riding. (Most soft wheels will have some sort of deformation as you ride)
The problem is, when the wheels wear down, you start losing half the selling points. Plus, I hear some people say the wavy shape makes the board bump around when you carve hard.
Love your videos, and I'm interested in seeing you grow. Like someone else said, you have mad John Hill vibes lmfao.
I was thinking the same thing! He meant well, but he is wrong! His logic is flawed! (for the reasons you stated). I own a set and like them a lot! The only thing I don't like is that, like he said, you cant slide them.
Yes sirrr. Only facts! We dont do lying for content😤
@@evorider3689 What happens when you turn really fast or begin to slide? I want to try them after falling off my longboard at 40mph(guessing ofc but that’s what it felt like) and since then I’ve been kinda scared to get back on it. Really ate shit that time.
@@mr-toyota I know exactly how you feel, because right now, I'm typing this response with only my left hand, because 5 weeks ago I ate it bad while longboarding and broke my right shoulder in 6 places (two different bones), and also separated it, and tore my rotator cuff! In answer to your question, I have never been able to make my shark wheels slide at all. They are very grippy! Maybe a pro could make them slide a little bit, I don't know, but I can't, but if you would like a wheel that grips really well, but also rides like you are on a cloud, then I would suggest Orangatang 77a stimulus wheels. They are awesome! However don't buy them if you want a wheel that you can make slide if you want to, because they are basically unslideable, but it sounds like maybe that's what you are looking for anyway.
What caused you to fall? I'm curious, because I fell because I hit a fairly big stone (while pushing really fast) that blended in with the asphalt.
pebble at 5:27 probably wouldn’t have got you with the shark wheels 😂
@3:08 Hol up. Isn’t the width of the wheel the same through out the rotation because the shapes are overlayed on each other? Imagine 2 sin functions on top of each other for the wheel contact pattern. The distance between the 2 functions are the same despite having “flares”
yeah bruh i think this man is confused
Interesting point of view.
In an urban environment with pedestrians, and tight corners, speed is not even a factor, as you cannot ride as fast as you could. Sharks also make a _huge_ difference on wet pavement.
No they don’t. Fad baby
Wouldn't that be pretty easy to test? Take two identical boards with just different wheels to a small hill and see how far they roll. I would think the grooves compensate for the "wider" contact patch to reduce rolling resistance.
Probably lol, this was a pretty spontaneous video just going over how it felt coming from me who has ridden them both, but I have no actual data I tested…just how it felt to me
The maker of shark wheels had them independently tested, and the tester found that Shark wheels are just slightly faster than traditional skateboard wheels of the same diameter, same contact patch, and hardness!
I've got the 60mm Shark Wheels on my Cruiser and I have to agree with you. I have to push a lot more than with my other wheels, they don't maintain speed as well. They do have one more positive though. They are amazing in the rain, which is the main reason I got them.
Ima have to use them as my rain wheels then!!!😄 cuz I hate getting my other wheels wet
I have 60 mm shark wheels and they are fast! I suspect yours are slower because of your bearings. If you ride in the rain, your bearings are likely in bad shape!
Just curious, did the wheels you compared Shark Wheel with have the same contact patch? Did you use the same bearings? Most importantly, were they the same diameter?
I think if they're slowing down it's bc of the bearings, or the material, not really friction. Wheels have static friction, in other words their not sliding on the ground and therefore the ground isn't putting any force on them other than up. Also bigger wheels have more inertia meaning they're harder to speed up, but keep speed longer. I don't mean to invalidate your point but I would instead attribute the slowness to the gumminess of the wheels or the bearings themselves.
probably the diameter and durometer cuz the bearings were def not the problem...
Bought a board today 80% off clearance at Walmart. Finally time for me to check out all the hype. Outstanding marketing while it lasted. What a piece of crap. You guys are genius!
Your like the jhon hill of longboards but i really like your channel!
Thanks dude I love John Hill so that's a pretty great compliment haha!
Wrong. They have less contact patch. What you mean is profile, it causes extra friction, but also kicks water and stones out. Its not for high speed or tricks due to profile.
That campus looks beautiful...and nicely filmed!
Glad that you uploaded another video thx
5:26 That's why I want to have shark wheels, so the stone doesn't block the wheel, and I also want a ceramic bearing because it's self-healing and doesn't explode on the downhill.
I just odered my first somewhat good longboard and now im just watching your whole channel oh yea and btw your so underated bruh
Just bought my first board. It's the loaded icarus, your videos helped me make a decision. Keep up the awesome videos!
Ever get knocked off of your board due to a pebble? Then try Shark Wheels👍 Lots of other people would disagree with this video post suggesting so called drawbacks.
Thanks for this video. I appreciate you taking the time to demo this for us.
Cool vid! Like your boneless tricks. Have you considered if they cut off the flaps on the side of the wheel??? That would solve the issue.
interesting I am working to create a foam roller with my patented side wheels with Shark Wheel. Check my vids I did a demo with Andy Anderson. It might be a good foam roller with shark wheel texture?! Maybe you can review it. The balance boarding is so epic with wheels. It literally rolls 2-3x as far side to side as larger diameter wheel on side of roller makes it travel further and spin slower.
They don't slow me down. I coast quiet a bit further on rough streets with em.
Too bad that actual measurements show shark wheels have 57% less friction and not more....
Your Opinion but no reality
I have a pintail set up with shark wheels and for rougher terrain like parking lots or grass they work really nice , and they’re super fun to ride in the rain
That's not how rolling resistance and friction works.
Actually, having a larger surface area would reduce friction since it lowers the pressure.
It's why wider bicycle tires have lower rolling resistance considering almost everything else is the same.
Where do you find your music
I usually just surf around soundcloud for a while until I find music that I like. I filter it to find copyright free tracks
Just buy Shark wheel and buy some bones reds bearing for them then you all set 🔥👌
That’s what’s in them lol
I know I'm kinda late but thank you so much. I'm looking to buy my 1st Board and actually wanna buy a Rayne Nae Nae and thought about getting sharkwheels with it. Now I'm not to sure about it but I will look a bit more into it. But this gave me a good inside as a longboard noob.
1 Question, do I need raisers for this Board with 70mm rolls or dont I need to worry about wheelbite
The so called drawbacks are false. If you are a newbie, you’ll love how Shark Wheels keep you on your board instead of knocked off due to pebbles or a crack in the road. It helped me focus on fundamentals and less about avoiding hazards. If your trucks aren’t too loose, wheelbite shouldn’t be an issue. 70mm is a good size for longboards typically.
Arent they meant to hit rock at an angle and therefore deflect objects?
@Ogden, please help me... Which one is closest to snowboarding? Longboard or Cruiser? Thanks!
Probably a longboard I would say, but I’m not sure because I’ve never been snowboarding before
Shark wheel doesn’t stand by their E-boards. They put their wheels on an E-board they have no clue on how to repair.
20+ emails back and forth yet no resolution on how to get a brand new board to power up.
Thanks shark wheel.
Snakes a super prone to chunking, every set I’ve owned has chunked a large portion on a least 1 wheel
I have a loaded fattail flex 3 that supports 175 pounds I weigh 178 pounds, should I stick with it?
That’s up to you man. If it feels fine when you’re riding it you’re probably good but if it’s too flexy for your liking then you could look for another board with less flex
5:16 true is. i live rural and i like shark wheels.
I’ve used 72 mm Shark Wheels for over 3 years and they are smoother and faster on the types of surfaces I ride. For cruising, they are absolutely superior over pebbles and cracks due to their sine wave design. Also, they do not increase friction compared to other wheels. There are credible scientific studies that prove they reduce friction compared to other wheels that have the identical contact patch dimensions. I respect anybody’s honest opinion. Obviously, I disagree with the perceived drawbacks talked about in this video. It’s not at all been my experience but then again, I’m not much of a dancer. I look forward to swapping for 95mm Shark Wheels on my electric!
Use shark wheels with avenue trucks and bones Swiss ceramic bearings ultimate cruise setup
I think they are the best looking cruiser wheels but there are plenty of better options for smother rides and carves
true they do look pretty sickk
60% lame b-roll shots without using the shark wheels 30% yapping and 10% reason why he stopped using shark wheels
Thanks for watching!
Bro y tf u gotta be mean man I like your content
Shark wheels are way better for cruising.
Ehhh
You’re badass on the wheels bro
Omg wrong again.
OMG!!! :D Did I ask?!?!? :)
I think I’ll try em I live in Boston we have off road on the road thanks my bro
1:37, I like that transition, I like it, I like it 🧐🙂👏👏
Contact patch = friction the sharks have LESS contact patch
3 thin rounded contact points . . .
VS one LONG contact patch ----
Speed is about wheel weight and wheel diameter and formula and hardness of contact patch for the wheel component then the other stuff like bearings etc
A big heavy HARD shiny wheel will roll like a bugger but sharks have less material so for same size they are lighter and have a stone ground finish = slower.
nice video!😀😀
Ahaha 5:20 to 5:32 if you had shark wheels that wouldn't have happened 😭😭 and to be honest your wheels still look new I hope you didn't sell them.. you have to actually use them a little more n you can slide.. 😭😭 shark wheels have never gave me a problem.. and it's not only about the wheels you put on your deck.. what kind of bearing are you using.. people always blame the wheels and have cheap bearing in there 🤣🤣🤦♂️🤦♂️ you probably still have the bearing the board came with. Nevermind. they look like bones reds 🤣🤣🤣 man you need to definitely upgrade 🤦♂️😭😭😭
Don’t talk to me like I don’t know anything about longboarding. I’ve been doing this stuff for years. That’s great that they’ve never given you a problem, they’ve been great for me too. I’ve just found other wheels to perform better for my style, that’s all.
Bro it's all about the orangutan longboard wheels
Thank you for sharing your experience, nice video too !!!
Shark or cloud wheels ?? For ride comfort...... AAAAArrrrK !! Gotta get more info !!!!
To throw another in to your mix, I’ve loved Hawgs Plow King 72mm wheels. They’re super long lasting, fast, durable, smooth, and because they’re so wide, you can ride in wet conditions and 95% of the time your bearings stay dry
@@OgdenSikel Thanks man. I'll check those wheels first. I never did tricks, but I like to cruise around and my fav board is Penny boards and BlackStar.
I used to have Plow Kings (std on my Landyachtz Dropcat), but switched to 72mm Shark Wheels. Plow Kings are great but they can’t handle large cracks and road debris like Shark Wheels. I noticed significant coning on the Plow Kings too. Maybe they are offset wheels. Not an issue with Shark Wheels.
@@djpdjp2488 I thought u were playing me, Plow \king from the Simpsons ?
Now I see the wheels !!!
Omg so wrong.
Shark Wheels just look slow imo
But They're not! I know because I own some!
Tuff
Yo I would go with a smaller wheel. Possibly the seismic cry babies
I’m actually picking up some seismic encores 🔥
Send me these wheels lol
Bruh. Long board are not for tricks or whatever the fuck you're doing. Parqueer flat-ground spazing. Secondly the shark wheels are designed for rougher terrain and battle the pebbles that nearly ended your video prematurely 😅
longboards are for whatever I want them for, thank you very much. you don't make the rules here bud
you’re so freaking handsome 🥺❤️
Im sry lady, but this isnt shrek, dr evil, austin powers, fat bastard, wayne, the cat in the hat, or even mike myers. So no.
He is not attractive in any way, no disrespect my guy, but no guy can beat mike myers, its impossible😕
@@TrashingTaco who asked
The thirst is real!
Yea, no, the surface area remains the same. Sry m8 butcha wrong.
I might be 🤷♂️ oh well
First
Unfortunately you're not exactly correct you see your new wheels are much smaller first of all so you're going to have a lot less friction rate anyway because small wheels vs. Big Wheels is even comparison. I've been skating for 36 years now almost 39 years and I will tell you that the Shark Wheels says she when you're hauling ass on an electric longboard or actually way better to have and a lot safer
