  • my new wheels are getting rounded after a few weeks cause i turn a lot doing a split. or cross legged with the outside skate ridding the side of the wheel as i shag skate

  • i like to put my nuts on the post too

  • Hey can you iceberg ?

  • @lilbikerdude2008 Yes I have a video of that up.

  • my wheels were starting to get coned good thing i learned about rotating wheels or it would have been a night mare ;) thanks

  • alrite ....thats true u never talked about skateboarding....im not a troll either this is the first video i talk shit bout but w.e.....my bad for that

  • hhhheeeeyyyy...thats a sk8board tool......WTF! dude use some other tool on those wack ass roller blades using that tool that deseerves itself a skateboard

  • @andrew90806 DUDE chill out stop being a TROLL! The Reflex is used for BOTH. Once again these are QUADS/ROLLER SKATES not Blades. Blades/Inlines have wheels in a straight line hints the name "inline" ha ha. :D ;)

  • @JamSkateAddiction "hints" haha its hence

  • @legaCsk8er4 Lol! Yea that is what happens when two words sound while I am typing fast. I didn't go back and read it before I posted it. I caught it after the fact. : /

    Oh well no one said I was amazing at english. :P

  • @legaCsk8er4 You could get me on ALOT instead of A LOT too ha ha!

  • @andrew90806 grown up kid !!!!!

  • @andrew90806 First off these are not Blades they are roller skates/quads. Second ALOT of people still roller skate, Jam Skating, Roller Derby, JB all that stuff.Don't hate on what I do man. I don't talk crap about skateboarding. : O Chill out.

  • NO!!STOP ITS.....it's hedious... ;( those wheels never did anything wrong.......thumbs up

  • I have radar speed rays and I don't rotate them anymore becaus I have seen that they don't cone there 93 a crazy I have coned 97 a in 2 weekends b4

  • @CorleyRacing616 Hmm that is cool. I would be careful though and keep an eye on them different whees wear faster than others. Some are made of different types of urethane that are longer lasting than others.

  • i have done this many times now and im glad i did because my friend didnt know about rotating ur wheels so he has bad cones and also i like ur grape vine video i have succesfully done the grape vine five times now thanks

  • @MrEnergy524 Good :D Glad to help you out.

  • what was that tragic song in the begining called

  • @dyr234 It is some track that comes with imovie on Macs called Designer Synth.

  • Me likey!

  • Haha, i love the tragic music you added to the pictures. nice touch :P

  • @monteleonee Yea I was going to add a scream at the beginning but I decided not too. If someone had their volume up really loud then it would have scared them outa their chair lol.

  • whats coned?

  • Another good video. Keep up the good fun.

    The uneven distribution of wear may also occur between the right and left foot, being outer and inner going around the rink. So the following rotation between the skates can be used.

    Before After

    A-B E-F D-H C-G

    C-D G-H B-F A-E

    (Inner ones become outer one the same skate, and outer become inner on the other skate, all flipped front to back.)

  • @tub8r True that. Thank you for suggesting this. :D I planed on doing another rotation video for a second rotation. Most of the time if my wheels stay on my skates long enough I do my first rotation on the same skate then my second one I switch between the two. But mine hardly ever stay on that often since I am always switching wheels lol. They get rotated by themselves ha ha.

  • @tub8r I was thinking the exact same thing while driving home from the rink last night. I know my left skate takes more the weigh than my right.

    Great tip.

  • Whoa... dude, i've totally been rotating my wheels wrong my whole short skating life, makes me feel a lot dumb.....but now i know the right way to rotate the wheels! thanks the for tip! question though, lets say i want to roll with two different colored wheels.. so i buy a new set of wheels, should i use them all and break them in, or is it okay to take off two old wheels from the old ones and replace them with the new, if so which should be replaced? i'm horrible with skate matenice

  • @MikeyTwerpLj It would probably be ok. As long as both wheels are the same size. I would put them on where the new ones are the inner front two and the outer back two.

  • how tight should the nuts be against the bearings?

  • @sonyfreak4069 It is kinda personal preference. I prefer my wheels to have a bit of play so mine have a small gap between the bearing and nut. The gap can not be seen but can be felt when you wiggle the wheel. Some want them to be snug against the bearing so there is no play. where it spins about one or two times. You do not want it too tight to where it puts pressure on the wheel. I have a video I think of tightening your wheels. It should help you a bit.

  • Once you've got your wheels off and have them sittingnext to the axle they came off (like @ 2;47) instead of moving the wheels, you could just rotate your skate 180 so that the toe is now at the bottom of the screen... done :)

  • @Cptntasty Yea could have done it like that. Oh well. :D

  • :D your camera is kick azz.

    Good job sis

  • What is the disadvantage to coned wheels?

  • @jerseysapphire Well one it ruins the wheel. Makes the wheel sit wrong on the post. Can make your wheels wobble. Can make your skate sit crooked. It effects the way it rolls won't be as smooth. Most of the time the lip is worn off the wheel and the hub is exposed like in the pictures of the extreme case. Not to mention it makes it look REALLY ugly.
