Alli Skate Videos - Field Trip: How Bones Wheels Are Made + Factory Tour with Jordan Hoffart 

Hell yeah!

Considering basically every team has at least one rider sponsored by bones I don't think that would really be that big of a deal. Also I doubt spitfire or oj or those trash merchants at ricta would want their guys skating the "bones hubba" and I doubt bones would want anyone skating their hubba with another companies wheels.

Yeah, pretty fucking lame.

He's not a skater he's a chump. I like how he says they're his wheels and they belong to george powell

@@thomasdragovich1093 Yeah what a poseur. Guess I'll just get spitfires instead.

That's just how life works man. Most people don't kick skaters out because they want to be a dick. They do it because if you get injured on their property it's their liability. People are looking for free money so when they go and break and break an arm on someone's property they can sue the owner. It's sad that that's a thing but it is. It's crazy you guys don't understand that unfortunately that's how the world works. I've skated for 20 years and I'm not just going to let someone I don't know skate my mini ramp or rails in my back yard. (Or at least not without signing a waiver that my lawyer has proof read clearing me of responsibility.) Us skateboarders are not repressed, we just live in a crazy world where people will try to take advantage of you. Although I do agree that guy seemed like a huge douchebag taking credit for the wheels lol.

how is that crazy that we don't understand ? Its fucking lame and private property so his liability talk is bullshit anyway, fuck him@@adu3830

Gayah

Always keep a battery powered angle grinder with you along with your standard skate tool >:)

I would love to have the durometer balls. They should sell them too. Like how coin collectors get the proof coins, except the ball I can actually play with.

With such an uneducated executive, I doubt Bones Wheels will be in business more than another few years. I would guess they are currently operating in the red. Besides, some large entity-such as private equity firm-will likely build a fully automated (robotic) manufacturing plant which will undercut companies such as Bones Wheels which is obviously using archaic manufacturing equipment.

dude chill hes just a marketing executive not a scientist lol and i doubt they will go out of business since they are pretty much the best wheels on the market for street skateboarding

Dude it is not cool to be ignorant. Great companies do not normally employ great engineers and foolish marketing executives.Usually you see three guys "landing sick tricks" on their boards while a fourth guy, who is clearly one of their peers who is a member of their group watches on, its usually safe to assume his skateboarding skill is comparable to theirs. In other words, "Birds of a feather flock together." Furthermore, your comment belies a misunderstanding of the current economic environment. Since the Reagan Revolution and one of its cornerstones, a return to laissez faire economic policies, large powerful businesses have been either purchasing small businesses or putting them out of business through a variety of practices that clearly violate US anti-trust law (competition law as it is typically referred to in English-speaking countries outside of the USA). For more, see Mark Twain's "Gilded Age." The skateboard culture I've read about on RU-vid clearly celebrates a low level of paganism reminiscent of the "sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll" mantra of the counter-culture movement ("hippie movement") of the late 1960's and early 1970's.

ken125y all you said is of no use since hes a marketing executive all he needs to do is say "hey guys look at this product its great so buy it" i think its safe to say that the only ignorant person is you lol

Your carefully constructed illuminating rebuttal reminds me of the aphorism, "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing" and Winston Churchill's pithy observation that, "The best argument against democracy is a 5 minute conversation with average voter."

:3 at least they don't kick out their own kind like that.

Bones would definitely be second for me with spitfires first and Autobahns third

build a wall

Then sit on the hubba

Rail grinding is fine too. They were being pansies.

KubesC37 bones are fucking shit

Then you haven't skated Spitfires

@@hytak18 right? :D 80HDs :3

So true, so many people face the graphic inward.

+Josh Rios how would you compare mini logo wheels are they like bones wheels

+Josh Rios oh ok then thanks

I like graphics on wheels that have concave(coned inwards). like I love the classic rat bones 2 wheels

+Pussy Destroyer mini logo is Bones' Chinese brand, the same way Reds are Chinese bearings

+WoahItsWiley same

Spits for life.

its tru bc when i got bones wheels they had bubbles

yeh.

Wat r bubbles?

Skate the hubba

man, i agree with you

When you become higher up in companies, nobody likes you. Jealousy, inferiority complexes, difference in pay, distrust, etc. Plus his position is probably powerful and those under him feel like he's watching them work.

He rides a scooter.

@@Mystninja explains everything, thanks

Huh

He's a marketing guy, which means he is paid to talk and produce bullshit.

thumpinrascal oh im aware lol.

AffinityForSkating do air bubbles in your wheels affect ur skating? Im just curious

Jalen Hill im not exactly sure i dont think it does. as far as i know it makes no difference but id like to see if there really is a difference.

SFFGaming how's it going?

Mmmm...noo...i dont recommend them

@@elchicopajaro5179 get hard wheels

Haha foreal

Yeah man, doing exactly what skaters are against, bullshit company

Yeah until a kid falls down and sprains his ankle and bones get sued by his parents then fined by the city, that's about three quarters of a million right there, easily more than what the companies worth

Anthony st peter it’s a skate brand that is supposed to speak for skaters. and what 10 year old will be skating a 7 stair bubba anyways. most people who get hurt at street spots won’t sue because it’s their fault.

anything can happen really. You would be suprizesd

Yeah

Swapmeet wheels are better than bones

Avtomat Kalashnikov he straight up said he'd love to have everyone skate but due to liability it's team riders only...

Yet in their videos they skate other peoples property without a care in the world, regardless how the owners feel.

Why you so butt hurt over it?

I was thinking "Now that's Powell right there! An old fart knobbing his own spot."

Avtomat Kalashnikov Not to sound fucked up, but they don't need your business. They're doing pretty damn good and one chained up hubba doesn't change that fact. Dude said it himself become an employee and you can skate it. If you can't because you live super far away, then you never would of been able to skate that shit anyway. Just sounds like your butthurt honestly.

are stf's good for both cruising and tricks?

yeah they aren't too hard so you should be good.

I've never tried Rictas but I've heard they're good

Me too

They're alright lol

nah

What yes they do I have fuckin smashed and flat spotted every other wheel I try

You obviously never rode bones

It's just personal preference

Formula 4's are equivalent to stf bones wheels...

Personally I think EetePe Signature Pour series is the best wheel.

Bones all the way. Skated formula 4 and got flatspots. Never flatspotted any stf's in my life

Ive gotten flats pots on my formula 4s & then I switched to bones now I don't have that problem

stfu troll

spitfire 99a are harder than bones stf lol.

Mr. Jamster yeah bc bone spf are better

SHADYASH85 yeah quality bubbly ass wheels lol

maybe upon closer inspection

There sure is alot of jesus stuff

+Cheesy Cola i powerslide a lot on both and they both have never flatspotted

Very true!! I've have had 3 pairs of spits before and they all flatspoted terribly!! I even had a flat spot from doing just powerslides. Bones remained in shape for me until they downsized from the size I get them.

Ruprt Which spits do you get

+SterlingOrion Howard classics and also had a pair of Formula Fours, they lasted for a good month but flat spotted after I ollied off a 4ft dock.

+SterlingOrion Howard ^

Titanium Ferni I've seen spitfire crack and fall apart...

Spitfire square the first week you use them... at least! Dey suck homes.

Fuck spitfire they are pure shit. Shrink way to fuckin fast, turn yellow too fast, flatspot first day, and are slow as shit.

I used to think the same thing...when I was 13

Rep itboy You probably ride them because you like defending them, like a so bad their good kind of a thing.

That is my sense as well.

yeah even generally he kinda seems like a jerk lmao

srt8up4shot yep! there was a lot of "me" and "I" being said like everything there is his doing

most bosses are like that

Brand Manager is a dead give away

Nah trust me bones is better

Cant argue with that man

+TheMightyStorm well lets just say i cant decide between spits or bones

+Carlos Girom Spits over bones everyday, people are way too caught up on the bones hype, they forget that the only reason pros ride bones is because they're paid to. Spits are better wheels

+WelshGrey exactly, Spits are much higher quality, they last longer, they feel better and they just look better

Interesting... What the fuck are you doing here then

True f4s for life!

U stupid it doesn’t matter how long they’ve been around

That means absolutely nothing.

F4 crew

mrjacketdancer ya because they could be sued by someone trespassing on there property and getting hurt. That makes no sense.

Thank you for spreading knowledge, not even skaters think skaters are smart.

mrjacketdancer I recently picked up skating simply because it's fun and a good use hobby. I already dislike how hateful skaters are of each other, thinking everyone would simply enjoy the fact we're all interested in something similar

Aaron's a cool dude, that's why people like him. Aaron's everybody's nigga!

Aaron IS cool. He's a good skate teacher too very funny.

Aaron is cool and is helping a lot of kids get into skating which is important for the sports future.

Dick

You don't say that about my Lord

Bitch ass.

I like em both the same

Revive fan boy

+Steezy JZ couldn't have said it better myself

blowcry force are actual shit

Taco Jiminez you mad *clonk* OR NAH

you will be

+DontTouchTheWatch lol bones are no joke were smooth and didn't flatspot

+DontTouchTheWatch no problem you'll get those pop shuvs back in no time.

spitfire f4, preferably 60mm 99a classics, or 58mm 99a conical full. they ride just a smidge slower than cruisers on rough roads, but way more slide-y and functional. ojs work well too, probably 58mm 97a elite or 60mm 97a originals the best. if you dont want to do many powerslides or tricks, mostly just hills and commuting, maybe a curb ollie, ricta clouds 60mm are stupid fast. your friends might not even be able to catch up to you.
