[smoothlikebutta14]

What Wheels Will Fit A Penny?

[aussiepride281]

i have a penny skateboard and i slide a fare bit can you tell me want wheels i should look at getting because the stock penny wheels just crack.

[Pinoyako11705]

bushings in wheels? OKAY!!

[skae0192837465]

Xboxfr34k hot spot seismic purple 66ml 85a are what I have on my apex37 and the slide prety good after their broken in

[skae0192837465]

Xboxfr34k

[XB0XFR34K]

wait so the higher the duro the better/easier the slide?

[PROVALB]

@XB0XFR34K Not necessarily, it all depends on the urethane used. Also, the contact patch determines how easy it is for it to slide. The smaller the patch, the easier it is to slide.

[XB0XFR34K]

@PROVALB so could you name a nice (not that expensive, but anything'll do) wheel thats great for sliding

[GoneGuitaring]

@XB0XFR34K cult classics. one of the cheapest slide wheels on the market and theyre definitely one of the best.

[MrLovesToCrankUp]

@XB0XFR34K yes

[Coolfwip]

he aid 83a for the orange retros when there 86a (the lemmon is 83a lol)

[ndawg227]

I have a sector 9 super shaka and currently im riding some 65 mm but i want to ride some 70mm orangatangs. will they fit on the board?

[Coolfwip]

@ndawg227 yes

[Gigidypuff]

@bustinlongboardsk8r just do some massive safety slides

[bustinlongboardsk8r]

can anyone tell me how to breake in new lipped wheels

[SurfinTiki26]

@BigTeryaki thanks buuurrrrother, i want the zig zags but im not sure. i want the originals hybrid.

[SurfinTiki26]

whats the best wheel for carving? first comment doesnt get coal for christmas!

[BigTeryaki]

@SurfinTiki26 Anything grippy, some decent wheels would be Orangatang, retro big zigs, etc. Basically anything that will grip hard with a square-ish lip.

[Gzusbulululululululu]

@SurfinTiki26 abec 11 zig zags would be very nice!

[MyWoody26]

Normally Nate doesn't make that much mistakes when talking but he did alot in this video hahaha. All goods bro your still the man.

[imapimpyournot]

my wheel is a 100mm/82a. scooter wheel. its 1/2 inch wide . its deffanitly for high speed.

[Mclovinurvids]

would a bigger wheel make a board anymore stable? as far as I know the wheel size doesn't matter too much for stability

[RepresentinDa614]

flashbacks FTW

[GetSomeNersh]

@NMR32082

The durometer of wheels is indicated by a number with the letter "A" afterward. Most wheels are in between 75a and 85a, the lower number being softer.

[yellex1]

would i be able to fit pink big zigs on a rayne avenger with 1/8 shock pads?

[kenzoz26]

my wheels r 78a gold coast wheels. can i stand up slide wit them easily ?

[DJT5678]

im going to be doing some kind of huge hills i wand a wheel that is a very low darometre

[Joelbrandan]

Is Venom Cannibals good for topmount?



[MrTezahh]

i have a skateboard turned into a short board, would i be able to put longboard trucks and longboard wheels on it ? and if so which ones ?

[lawdsilovewatermelon]

Nate is ny favorite from mobo.



[Kevster270]

he keeps saying side set for the offset wheels lol

[XxthestalkerxX]

killswich vs rocky bomber ks - set up pairs 180 with flash backs and rockey bomber- randle 50 degree 180 with purple 4prez manly free ride and a little down hill

[woolerymasst]

@XxthestalkerxX dude killswitch alllllllll the way hahaha

[codgod292]

what about the otang stimulus

[IamMrLiverpoolfc]

@eksurfer91 thanks for the help but i don't want to get wheels smaller than 75mm

[IamMrLiverpoolfc]

@RushVoltage so if i bought them in 84 a will they slide pretty well, because i have 80a monster hawgs and i cant slide on them will gumballs slide better

[IamMrLiverpoolfc]

are abec 11 gumballs good for sliding and downhill

[RushVoltage]

@IamMrLiverpoolfc they have good grip and are smooth for downhill so downhill they get an A+ and for sliding they aren't the best but they will slide just not as easily as a rounder wheel. i've owned gumballs and they are great so i would recommend them and i wouldn't worry about sliding because they will slide as well as be stupendous for downhill

[eksurfer91]

@IamMrLiverpoolfc for downhill and sliding, I would recommend the Divines 70mm 82a or the Pink Seven-O's

[codgod292]

what country r u based in

[eksurfer91]

@codgod292 United States

[MultiNerfmaster]

what is better orangatang in heat or ABEC 11 gumballs over all

[R193L1]

WOW! whats the board with a dragon graphic behind him?

[thirtytwo1000]

@R193L1 it is a 2008 landyachtz drop speed

i have it and its soooooooooooo gooooooodddddd

[R193L1]

@thirtytwo1000 the new graphic is ok but I prefer this one

[SlideSity]

Whats the Landyachtz board in the background?

[TakeaBouw]

i love sliding and carving equally can you please tell me what would be the best wheel for me oh ya and i have and tan tien

[CrunchyMuffbag]

@TakeaBouw get 2 pairs

[CrunchyMuffbag]

@TakeaBouw or mix your wheels

[jchud13]

@TakeaBouw i would recommend some kind of otang wheel

[TheGasproductions]

@TakeaBouw o tang stim 86 a yellow

[him732]

@TakeaBouw abec11 flashback or otang stim

[martijnspeed]

@TakeaBouw id reccomend the orangotang 4 president, purple

[WhycantIdospaces]

@TakeaBouw every one is saying stims.. but avoid them! not worth the money. look at some abec 11 there amazing makes the stims look like shit try some abec flash backs or abec free rides

[njlwag]

@TakeaBouw retro zigzags, 80a

[BayAreaLongboarder]

Hey motionboardshop can you guys make a comparison of sector9 raceforms and retro bigzzigs/zigzags? Something like a speed comparison, slide comparison, etc Thanks

[pielord1234567]

whats the best abec 11 wheel for sliding?

[diegelin123]

@pielord1234567 abec 11 free ride

[chase20j]

Don't order from motion board shop unless you want to wait for your shit forever, and have them dodge your phone calls, making up stupid excuses.

[haseoice]

@chase20j Yea, they don't have a huge demand or anything.

Shut up.

[MrJoey2miles]

HELP!!! i really want the abec 11 flashbacks but idk what duro i should get!! i do alot of tech downhill and freerdinging. i was thinking about getting the 78a's but idk. i really just want thane lines and easy sliding. PLEASE HELP!!!

[ninjamaniac555]

@MrJoey2miles 81a or 78a should be fine

[bannanahamster19]

what is a good set up for a sector nine super shaka if i am going to be sliding?



[abauer378]

this dude messed up the zig zags the orange one is 86a!!! and well i rude orangatang and i find it esiar to slide with an 80a duro 4pres than with a 86a i think that the softer the slidiest

[sj98765]

i just got a Riviera Titan 34' and it has paris 150mm trucks.the wheels are Divine 70mm 78A.they seem really grippy and i want to do slides.does anyone know if they slide better over time?

[MrJoey2miles]

which wheel is better for siding and tech downhill?? the 80a metro motion or the 84a abec11 flashbacks??

[mrgigletybears]

@MrJoey2miles metro motion 80a i have them and they slide pretty easy

[guitarest974]

dude, thank you so much. you seriously cleared so many things up for me. im still having trouble deciding weather i want an orangotang in heat or the bigzigs. im going to get a loaded dervish. i mostly use my board to cruise around but i wanna learn some slide. so far ive narrowed it down to the lime bigzigs and purple orangatangs. please help me decide. thanks!

[XxTheJosephxX]

WHATS THE BEST FOR SPEED!!!!!! IDGAF ABOUT GRIP I WANT SPEEED!!!!

[woolerymasst]

@XxTheJosephxX divines

[PasadenaLocalSkaters]

@XxTheJosephxX  YOU WANT SPEED!!!!!!! THEN GET IN HEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...or 4prez....depending on you board size, i would get inheat 80a....amazing speed!!!!

[LightningbugsInAJar]

my longboard has 62mmx50mm wheels, all I want to do is cruise and maybe learn some simple slides, should I get bigger wheels?

[Gzusbulululululululu]

i have a dogtown mini cruiser with B.L. Emergencies (centerset 78a 68mm) and am looking to replace them with something that'l be fast, rail turns, (maybe 81a-86a), good for slides, and are good for carving. and im kinda stuck on what wheels i should get

[BreazyADAMS76]

im new to longboarding and i rlly need some help... i have a Krown Tidal Wave Pin Complete Longboard Skateboard... and i dont rlly like to kick every second so what would be some good wheels that are affortable that will keep me going at a good speed without kicking every second... please right back asap thanks

[chuyitodejesus]

retro big zig or otang stimulus?

[CRAZYGUY11000]

ummm what would be a great size and type of wheel for Bear Grizzly 852 (180mm) longboard trucks

[TheHenryGeorge1]

@CRAZYGUY11000 what type of riding do you do and what board are you using

[CRAZYGUY11000]

@TheHenryGeorge1 carving and downhill

[TheHenryGeorge1]

@CRAZYGUY11000 siesmic speed vents are great and so is the abec 11 line up like the grippins and the centrax are sickk if your board can fit them

[ScabiesRat]

he's wearing two shirts



[fescolfaro]

Hey dude, remember that there's more and more people pumping every day now. Incomplete information you're supplying here (and useless for me).

[pretzil16]

with a 7 inch wide board no concave and 7 inch trucks with 1/4 in risers 70mm wheels would i get wheelbite? thanks

[WCLongboarding]

whats that board under the rayne timeline?

[Sonatafan309]

@WCLongboarding Can't see very well, but I think it's a landy drop speed.

[sickboynotyet]

I'm sorry guys but I can't find the second part of this video, any suggestions? Anyway I think this guide is so useful to lazy people like me, thanks!

[Footballerx26x]

i have the landyachts switchblade and right now im using the cult classics 70mm 80a. what wheels do u recommend i get after my cults ware? thanks :)

[ZzLongboardszZ]

@Footballerx26x more cults of freerides



[Footballerx26x]

@ZzLongboardszZ all right thanks man :)

[raginginferno132]

@LittleRed13255 i would suggest a Krackedskulls scimitar. It is cheap and low enough to cruise easily. Also it is versitile enough to do Downhill and carve based on your setup. And i would definetly reccomend BigZigs 80a's for wheels. I hope that helped.

[333333cc]

you guys rock.....

[christianpcktt9]

CAN SOME ONE PLEASE DO A REVIEW ON LANDYACHTZ MONSTER HAWGS AND MINI HAWGS! PLEASE!!!!!!

[Jbratset]

Which are best to drift and slide with Zombie Hawgs 76mm 80a white or Zombie Hawgs 76mm 84a black?

[17logano]

what would be the best wheels for sliding but still not being to slippery . around 86a or below but still being a high quality wheel. i currently have the land yatchz switchblade

[simpletrickz1]

@17logano abec11 freerides 84a or zombie hawg 82a. hope this helps

[mcindoee]

is it just me, or is anyone else reminded of a brunette owen wilson?

[Itachi5050]

@mcindoee not until you mentioned it :p

[MarcadamiaNut]

@mcindoee i wouldn't call him a brunette

[hoax3]

its so hard to review wheels for sliding because it's all personal preference, for instance you may love mayonnaise and think that i should eat it and nothing else but i hate mayonnaise it reminds me of semen.

[MrJoey2miles]

are the dregs soy luv yo mutha 66mm 81a wheels good for sliding!!?????

[s3xymoth3rfuck3r]

BREATH :D

[ThatOneGuy1027]

@s3xymoth3rfuck3r you hear it too!!

[deathbot290]

@s3xymoth3rfuck3r thats not cool man he was probably nervous

[s3xymoth3rfuck3r]

@deathbot290 was just giving advice if he makes a new video i dont think i abused him at all?

[crazyman1500]

Do you guys by any chance offer lessons on sliding? I have been long boarding for a little over a year, but i want to try more adventurous riding techniques

[skyking166]

i always thought center set grip the most, offset 2nd, and side set being slide the most O_O correct me if im wrong

[haseo5]

hey i'm buying a board soon and im thinkin

a landyachts evo with:

randal 180mm

abec 11 gumballs 76mm 81a's

and bones reds would this be good and id love to hear any ideas for better parts to put on there thank you in advance

[nuclearthreat545]

"all the wheels here are under 70MM....this first one here is 70mm " lol wtf!!!

[dontmugurself]

@nuclearthreat545 yeh the vid wasn't scripted that well >.< cuz he went into 75mm once he got to the Retro BigZigs...also he kinda fumbled words around a bit too often. All in all good info, but maybe focus on a wider variety of wheels. I didn't see any Zombie Hawgs or O-tang Stim/Durs being reviewed all of which are very popular sliding wheels. The In-Heats are better for downhill than sliding but he kind of praises their sliding abilities without mentioning other more slide oriented options.

[FlyLilPrO]

i think the camera man has Parkinson's disease the camera wont stop moving

[woolerymasst]

arent side sets slidyer

[Tobybbrown]

NOT SIDE SET

ITS OFF SET

[chuyitodejesus]

hey, is the kryptonics 70mm 78a good to slide with?

[SnerkaSnerka]

Well i guess your right becausse it does have gas pedals and rocker but i know people that have it and they normally use it for dh

[SnerkaSnerka]

@VexyWexy the wolfshark is a speedboard made for going fast down big hills. I wouldn't recommend durians for this board because they are round lipped wheels which are made for freeriding and sliding. If you feel comfortable riding otangs then I recommend getting in heats or 4presidents. These are made for going fast and gripping.

[imran3216]

@SnerkaSnerka The wolfshark is a TOPMOUNT FREERIDE board.Why do you think it has gas pedals and rocker?Durians will fit it perfectly.

[V3eks]

what is the best crusinig wheel with-n a budget

[SurfSkate26]

i have a question, Fireball Beasts or Landyachtz Zombie Hawgs

both 84a but which would you recommend

[vexywexy]

will durians work well on a wolf shark? i got some 82a zombies and they wear stupid fast and uneven and i also hear the harder duro of zombies kills bearings and wear jsut as bad. i have used otangs in the past on other boards and loved them. so i wanted to go back to what i know. so pleas help. will the durians work well?

[MrLudwig97]

the lime is 80a

[njlwag]

ALSO THE ORANGE IS FUCKING 86!!

[BigTeryaki]

@njlwag in the orangatangs...? No the Yellow is 86.

[njlwag]

@BigTeryaki no in zig zags

[BigTeryaki]

@njlwag Ahh...

[utubedude3196]

wheres part 2 >_<

[hardstyle40k]

wood the retro zigzagz 80a slide?

[trptking12345]

@hardstyle40k Doesn't really matter what wheels you have, you can always slide. It just depends on how much power you put into your slide.

[hardstyle40k]

@trptking12345 aww k thx for the help

[XxcvazquezxX]

are the seethrough wheels even good?

[reviewsnake]

@XxcvazquezxX yeah it doesn't really make them different look at the mini monsters and speed vents

[LittleRed13255]

i wish i was coming to you to buy my longboard, im a complete noob, i just learned about these today and fell in love with it, i really want to learn to longboard and want to buy my first one! but i have not a clue about longboards, and i really want to learn what i should get! my town has some smooth roads, and lots of bumpy ones, i really just wanna cruse around town on it, not do tons of tricks, im unsure what board/size wheel i should get? any help will be much loved, great video!

[simpletrickz1]

@LittleRed13255 i would reccomend an loaded dervish, landyachtz bamboo pinner hope this helps.

[iRobii]

@LittleRed13255 Buy tall ones. Like 39-42 inches. If you are going to cruise I suggest that you get a low longboard so it is easier to kick. Then comes the price part. The trucks and wheels.

Buy paris, randall or gull wing trucks. They are very smooth to turn on and can turn very sharp.

Also buy soft wheels. 80a's are pretty soft. with a 70mm hight.

Good luck. I have been longbarding for a week and I LOVE IT! So addictive man!

[connor011097]

@LittleRed13255 i just started this year and think that it is fun. it rly does not matter what size if you are starting when you get your board just use whatever wheels are on it then after a bit you should have a good idea of what wheels you will want.

[itsakadoozy95]

@LittleRed13255 get a landyachtz dropcarve, great for cruising and carving, but can also do some good slides, as for wheels, i like orangatangs durians, but abec 11 make some great wheels, check em out

[syndrome666]

@LittleRed13255 Center set and mid 70s inch to lower 80s inch wheels with a durometer in the upper 70s to lower 80s are best for all around cruise, carve, and downhill all in one. Motion Highlander decks are sweet with a set of paris 180" trucks and abec11 flywheel 78a durometer 83" as an all around deck. Use Crail trucks for serious dh, otherwise Paris 180s are fine as long as you have yellow khiro or harder bushings. Just be sure to use cupped/stock washers, not to get the possible wheel-bite!

[syndrome666]

@LittleRed13255 forgot to mention...If you weigh under 140lbs, I guess you can settle for blue khiro bushings for super awesome carving, but those can be a bit sketchy on super tight turns and/or slides, but don't even think of using any bushings softer than blue khiro....unless you get a Motion Highlander IV which solved the problem of wheelbite for bigger wheels. There you can freely use blue and even softy super carvy orange khiro bushings, possibly even flat washers would work too.

[Hamwhiskey13]

@LittleRed13255 if you just wanna cruise than use a larger board, and use grippy wheels like ABEC 11 Flashbacks or Grippins, or Orangatang In Heats. and get paris trucks, I have Randalls and my friends all have Paris's and they're way better.

[Loadeddervishrider]

Please do a wheel clinic on wheels that leave thane trails!

[nigleooo]

1:57 off set not side set

[ndrocks11]

77a for the pinks daaaaaaaaaawggggg

[skyking166]

I do NOT like how inheat slide, unless your talking about making some useful slide through corner to cut some speed away, then the inheat will do, for free riding/ more technical slide, the inheat will not be a fun wheel.

[TheLongLamas]

@skyking166 but what about the 4prez?

[skyking166]

@TheLongLamas im not sure, about the 4prez, btw if you must go with inheat, get something harder than your usual hardness, because they have these circular cut out that makes them more flatten out and rebound... it just feels a bit softer than it is, at least me. Well what kind of longboarding you want to do? tech slide? bomb hill? all around?

[TheLongLamas]

@skyking166 i'm planning on sliding, carving, etc... pretty much an all around setup.

[skyking166]

@TheLongLamas

1) Lime Zigs (great wheel, well worth the money, no complain. (83a)

2) 74 or 76mm Sector 9 Race Forms (great wheels bro)

3) Otang inheats 80a less slide, 82a better slide 84a slide more.... In heats is really not too bad of all around wheel, but if you want SLIDE, it will not be your best option, but for all around and a few 180 stand up slide here and there, it will work fine.

Extra note is that, inheats can slide but just kinda choppy, some people might like inheats but i dont

[skyking166]

@TheLongLamas wait, my fail, inheat only have 80 and 83a, so go with 83a if you want inheats

[amitlimbu]

questions,how do i knw if the wheels are for sliding or downhill?

[Mrkisrl24]

@amitlimbu best slide wheels are more for slides. so if you want a wheel with atleast a 80a-86a duro.

[Qaspwer]

i think pink bigzig and zigzag is 77a not 78a

[homerman001]

i disagree... some low duros slide like butter and more then any other wheel/... i think a lower duro gives a smooother slide and a more butery slide

[CMoNey6191]

Hey Im tryiny to buy some new Abec11 Bigzigs 75mm Lime wheels

but there not in-stock -_- .... do you know when you guys are getting some in-stock again?

[njlwag]

the lime is an 80 not 81, god get it right, just kidding

[OrionLong]

@njlwag Haha Thats what I was thinking O_o..But since I'm new to longboarding,I suspected he was right lol

[17Killaman]

What wheels should ii get to go fast downhill/free ride however i want to be able to slide. I getting the 2011 Switch.

[Unexpected97]

What types of wheels are good for sliding and carving?

[fireballrox]

@Unexpected97 purple orangatang in heats

[messidinho96]

what if i just wanna do gnarly drifts (Wheels and what dimensions of a board cause im making my own)

[FarWestLongboarding]

@messidinho96 nersh wheels

[Septembersedge]

Hey MBS,how much would it cost to ship a pair of trucks and a set of wheels to London, UK?

[Septembersedge]

Hey MBS,how much would it cost to ship a pair of trucks and a set of wheels to London, UK/

[FRIEDmason]

landyachtz zombie hawgz are litteraly the best free ride wheels i've ever ridden

[AntSalmonn]

u should get some Bustin boca's, they are the shit

[Myth7495]

Do anyone can tell me do i need sliding wheels to slide or just use the ordinary one??

[JackAssBrotherss]

i'm stuck on wether i should get puple orangatangs or orange. i want good grip for carving but i also want something fast. any suggestions?

[Endlessdonut97]

@JackAssBrotherss Purple are awesome, but cone a little bit easier than the orange. Purple's are fast and a little slidier than the orange. I usually ride my DH board with both (Purple in front for speed, Orange, so I don't slip out from the back)

[denzuchiha]

What's the landyachtz dropthrough in the back?

[GinkGoBoards]

@denzuchiha Drop speed

[azreal289]

let me ask, I am aware of the flywheels and the largest size available, i bought a set about 6 months ago, are these the tallest wheels made?, mind you my board does not hinder the heigth of my wheels at all, perhaps also you can tell me which one is the widest wheel as well

[MATandBENgetLOADED]

i wanna get a killswitch soo badly i was thinkin killswitch randal 42 basepl8 and 180 hanger

then i was thinkin either abec 11 strikers 81 a or 84 (howd they slide) or otanf in heats orange or purps im mainly gonna get this 4 downhill soooo ye can anyone help btw paris or randal

[Endlessdonut97]

@MATandBENgetLOADED As for the wheels, 80a In Heats or 4prez are perfect for freeriding! As for the trucks, You could combine a Paris hangar with a Randal 42* BP. Super turny, but AWESOME stability. AKA "Prandals"
