This. Big wheels are heavier and worse for slide tricks. Also, stop making threads that could have been a post in /esg/

>>247103
to the kids these days, anything over 54mm is considered too big.

/esg/ is literal cancer I can see why he wouldn't post in there.

big wheels heavy small wheels light
too hard to flippy dippy with heavy wheels

lol, lmao even.

big wheels are actually making a comeback

>>247103
wheelbite

>>247103
wheelbite, the pop, some skateboarders actually do this believe it or not, sliding on ledges etc

just wax the wheel wells you guys lmao
and maybe use some lighter trucks

>>247103
Among other things (wheelbite, heavy, etc...) I find big wheels have too much lateral traction to do anything difficult. You land weird and they stop all horizontal motion completely instead of sliding a little
But everyone who actually skateboards to get around has two sets of wheels. If you are skating miles on 100a 50mm wheels your city either has perfect asphalt or you are mentally retarded.

retard

fpbp OP exposed as kook

58s are about right, trucks with a shorter wheelbase will help offset the steepness for pop (ie ace, venture v8 but I haven't tried them yet idk if the wheelbite will be bad)

I only skate 56mm and up.
Mostly 60mm slimeballs or oj's.
It does make some things harder but I love the amount of speed you can sustain on big wheels. Plus they just look cooler.

>to the kids these days
trends on this have swung back and forth a couple times. the desirable wheel diameter when i was a kid in the 90s was around 40mm. just completely ridiculous for anything other than pristine smooth skateparks.
