SMALLEST SKATEBOARD WHEELS ON THE INTERNET! 

Or just two bearing not the spacers?

The space between the bearings (in this video) are narrower than most skate wheels…highly doubt they were this narrow in the 90s.

Good idea

😅😮

Yup. Tiny wheels and no more Risers.

I had 42mms in the early-mid 2000s. I absolutely loved them.

@@ForeverFinest That's awesome! Idk why these guys are struggling. I used to skate everywhere with those😄

I skated 28millimeter wheels in the early 90's. Think they were spitfire. They fit though, no need for spacers. Idk why these guys are struggling. They aren't bombing a highway. They are on smooth cement. With the 28's you had to pop over every crack, but popping was easier, ollie's we're higher,and technical tricks were easier too. Because your force transfered to the ground faster. But ,on some ledge tricks....yes, you can slide those small nuts right onto the top of what you trying to slide ,or off the edge of what you grind. We called these street wheels and 58mm's were vert wheels. Which, looking back, is insane because bigger wheels move you faster. Which was the point for vert. Faster drops mean higher pops. If I weren't disabled with a bad back, I'd still skate daily.

@@BeastOuncelifeian Exactly!! All the 52+ mm today were all big vert wheels back then. Lol crazy to think about now😄 Yea I was super technical and popped huge Ollie's with those small wheels😁

Not like _this_ small though... More like 48-52mm. And the people who really wore down their wheels into the 38-39mm range were really kind of nuts (or too broke to buy new ones). In reality, anything smaller than 50mm is horrible for streetskating and the benefit for flip tricks is virtually non-existent compared to the total lack in comfort. In skateparks especially with anything related to coping, small wheels are completely pointless. I'd bet the only people skating the 38mm stuff back then, were people doing nothing but flatground flip stuff.

@@PHeMoX Exactly.. that's when street skating was really progressing. The lower to the ground the easier to flip the board. Wheels kept getting smaller and no more riser pads.

​@@PHeMoX Maybe, but I am sure this was a thing. I knew people that would get new wheels and sand them down. It was just a trend. They then wondered why a grain of sand would lead them to slamming on the floor. Back then as skateparks were not a thing, and here in the UK, concrete wasn't a thing used for any kind of paving, it just made it a beeping nightmare.

I was about to say the same thing. It seemed like it was a big deal where I was too to have the smallest and hardest wheels possible.

It was a trend to ride your wheels until you couldn't.

That was wheely funny

You had me ROLLING laughing

Couldnt imagine bearing that joke.

That one had me on my tail.

💀💀

All that matters is you're out there having fun

I expected to see a bunch of nasty comments, but I ended up finding this completely sincere one. Awesome!

True Story, go out and have fun!

Never stop skating

Hahaha we really need to do a full throwback skate with the board and the wheels and giant pants, find some Airwalk shoes and take it to 100

@@brailleskateboarding Don’t get me wrong, this was gnarly and awesome! Great job with this one!

Clearly, the biggest wheels would be for ALL TERRAIN!

tractor

I remember making a board with a table top probably 12 ply ? A door stop and tonka truck axle wheels it rolled ;)

Same

Probably impossible on a Pennsylvania road where I live. I don't have a skatepark in my town, so I had to by my own obstacles which is a rail and by buddy's quarterpipe, but sometimes we go to a tennis court and just mess around on flat ground when we want to try new flip tricks out,and just riding to the courts a pain with my 54mm 101 bones street terrain wheels slims.

Been there Done That lol

That’s a good local

Word

Years ago

I think they've already done one where they glue a bunch of tech decks to a big board... didn't last very long lol

Sick
