I've been using shark wheels for a long time now and it's the only wheel I will ever own. Little pricey but they are worth every penny. Think I've had mine 7 years or 8 years now and same set and they held up and still hold thire name. Never going back
maicol samaniego that would be interesting. I think it would come down to whatever the difference in surface area contact is between a shark wheel and whatever the size of the regular wheel you chose had. In a perfect world, the one with less would have less friction, and thusly be faster.
hey! nice video, I got a question, how does the shark wheel do against concrete sidewalk with large expansion joints? Especially those that does not have silicone strip filled in. Thanks!
Thanks; I have yet to find a crack in concrete that has stopped me dead in my track. They do seem to be softer than typical wheels so I imagine they’d do better, but maybe marginally
By the way the wheel came to a somewhat abrupt stop on 07:01 & considering you are using new bearings (rated ABEC 9 accourding to the specs on Amazon), it seems like the axle nut was slightly overtightened. You also made the right decision by instaling the washers at each side of the wheels, as this are meant to reduce the friction exerted by the parts of the truck that fix the wheel in place (end of the hanger & axle nut). I hope you guys get to enjoy lots of rides together & may the force be with the both of you!
Hello im 13 and riding naked signature pro, i live where there Are gravel dirt and asphalt roads. I would really like to know if they Are useable on gravel and dirt or not? And do they fit on my board? Regards Valdemar from Denmark
Wuri PvP they probably will fit on your board if it’s a standard truck. I imagine they’ll be better on gravel than basic wheels but I imagine there are off-road wheels that would would better for gravel than these. These might dig in
Wuri PvP most of the ones I see that see for off-road that look proficient are pretty pricy. I’d try some shark wheels and see how you feel. You want something soft and large.
To a point....i went from concrete to straight dirt going about 15 20 miles an hour and it was smooth and easy riding but pushing off was a different story because of the dirt itself
Bee Anderson you could. But you might have issues with wheel bite, or at the very least, just not be able to lean as much unless your trucks are tall or you prefer to have them super tight
I’m thinking of getting these could you give me a link to be exact, I don’t like to buy things on amazon cuz I got scammed last time. Plz and thank you
@@TheForerunner117 oh awesome. I was thinking of getting some nice expensive ones too, I really like speed so was thinking of getting some bronson g3 or some... idk yet. If you could make a video on the ones you get I would really appreciate it!
AJV I can definitely tell you that the smoothness and speed difference from the stock ones were highly noticeable. Especially since my girlfriends board still had the stock ones, you could easily see the difference between the two. And for something like 10$ I think I spent for them, You can’t go wrong
DanZel unbolt the wheel from the truck, and use the threaded post to hold the wheel still while using a screw driver to pry the outer bearing off, flip it around and repeat.
@@TheForerunner117 Ah. I'm kinda surprised yours isn't broken yet haha. My buddy's Kryptonics board only lasted him about a month and a half. He did some light tricks with it and the tail snapped. Hope you can find a nice board next season.
NeonMangos I haven’t exactly started messing around with doing tricks or even really anything involving the tail at all yet. One day I got brave and started doing the thing where you use the tail to pick up the front to make quick turns and that same day both my girlfriend and I wiped out doing it lol. So we stopped doing that for a while because we both walked around like old people complaining of our soreness for about a week. We mostly ride around the neighborhoods looking for long mellow hills to carve down. We’ll probably start snowboarding here this winter.
wow, how the fuck did i get such a small channel in my recommended? I hope for your channel's sake that i'm not the only one getting this recommended, that would be very good for the growth of your channel.
I honestly have no idea. Its good to hear, but I'm really not sure how this video in particular is doing so well, especially just starting out doing this kind of thing.
give normal skateboards a chance. get a shaped board though popsicles suck. get a 9-10 in deck indy 169s and 60mm dragons. also bearing spacers will give you aids.
Way easier to install the bearings in wheels on the board itself. Way quicker.
Yeah
Agreed! So much easier.

When those are in bad condition roads or find a rock on the road it still happens that the wheel get stuck and brake instantly?
Looks like one of those light bulbs
“Make sure she’s flat” don’t worry I’m flat- 🥴
you sound like such a chill guy
some coffee ??hahha Nice vid.
I recommend you clean your bearings. Saves you more money and Extends the life of any bearing
I'll look into her
so many people dont know you can do that. bearings dont even perform their best until the first cleaning imo and i have been skating since 85
I just saw you run over a small bear. Kept going. Amazing
How long did the wheels take to come in
2 days, amazon prime.
Oh okay because I ordered a set from the official website and it didn’t give me a tracking number or tell me when it will arrive thanks tho
Lazy Sloth Gamer oof. I’m weird, I won’t buy anything online if amazon doesn’t sell it lol.
Would be interesting if u do a race with people of the same weigh and see whick tires are faster

I would totally recommend shark wheel

I recommend German bearings personally at least for reliability.
i have bronson ceramics for over a year and i swear they are still getting better
Are these just for long boards or could you use them on penny boards or normal decks?
Bee Anderson you could. But you might have issues with wheel bite, or at the very least, just not be able to lean as much unless your trucks are tall or you prefer to have them super tight
You can, just get the 60mm 78a shark wheel
where can I buy them
Do they suck ? NO WAY FELIPE !!!! lmbo
Are those wheels smooth? They seems square lol!!!
Yes they are smooth LOL. It’s an optical illusion
I’m thinking of getting these could you give me a link to be exact, I don’t like to buy things on amazon cuz I got scammed last time. Plz and thank you
RBA 999 I actually bought them on Amazon, lol. 100% prime items only.
Do those bearings spin fast and long?
I've gone about a 100 miles on them so far, and still going. I'm probably going to try a more expensive set soon to compare the difference in value
@@TheForerunner117 oh awesome. I was thinking of getting some nice expensive ones too, I really like speed so was thinking of getting some bronson g3 or some... idk yet. If you could make a video on the ones you get I would really appreciate it!

When the bearings where stuck on the truck, friction prolly melted it on
no way lol
This comment is so old… I can’t believe you responded

Does the sharkwheels fit on surfskates?
Do you know how to get bearings out of shark wheels
DanZel unbolt the wheel from the truck, and use the threaded post to hold the wheel still while using a screw driver to pry the outer bearing off, flip it around and repeat.
@@TheForerunner117 thank you and will it hurt the wheel at all
DanZel nah they should be fine.
DanZel use the trucks or a pen
washer guys are speedrings
they help keep the wheels stable and in place when you zoomin
They do be hitting different though
Hey what are those bearings called on Amazon?
They’re called “yellow jacket, stripes”
I think I want those wheels now
Did you get a new board yet?
NeonMangos not yet, I haven’t broken this one yet lol. Plus, the season is about to be over here in Michigan.
@@TheForerunner117 Ah. I'm kinda surprised yours isn't broken yet haha. My buddy's Kryptonics board only lasted him about a month and a half. He did some light tricks with it and the tail snapped. Hope you can find a nice board next season.

@@neonmangoz I've had one for years and I still have mine I must be light because I do lots of tricks
What kind of longboard do you have???
Sergio Barragan I’m not sure lol. They’re just some random ass boards from Meijer, which is like Walmart. They were like 60$
@@TheForerunner117 oh ok thanks

Hey can you buy a retrospec longboard and do an unboxing
Sure, send me one. lol
man the way you put your bearings in your wheels is just painfull...
Cent Sniffa ahhh, gets her done eh
So, how do they ride?
Karl Fonner smooth. I like them a lot.
Use the trucks to install the bearings
No. They rule!! 🤘🥃🛹
I've never heard a skater complain about wheels getting dirty 😐😐
They’re pretty cool
I have shark wheels and they are the best.. You could have spent a few more bucks and got real bearings. Sorry, but your purchase was a fail.
I disagree bud. They work just fine.
give normal skateboards a chance. get a shaped board though popsicles suck. get a 9-10 in deck indy 169s and 60mm dragons. also bearing spacers will give you aids.
I do have a personal goal of learning how to do skate around a skate park and do some simple trickery on a normal skateboard.
@@TheForerunner117 im not kidding when i say . its good for your soul. and you will never make better friends than other skaters. we are like family
Brotherman if you gon do something go all the way and do it right, or else dont even do it. Just a tip :)
If I needed a tip, I’d change my gender preference on tinder. ;)
how do you get a gf?
