    Hey brother, thanks for sharing this video. I too have had some challenging times of late however, I am grateful that my skateboard has always been there for me to help deal with the hills and valleys of life.

      I’m sorry to hear of your troubles, I guess that’s how life is you know? Sometimes it hurts so much it’s like nails in the ears, and my heart goes out to you. Skateboarding has always been my friend during the worst and best parts of life, please lean on it even if it’s just daydreaming about the next session. Sometimes the only way we can go is up.

    It's definitely true especially when it comes to slappy combos because if you watch Bev skate slappys, he uses 60mm SFF4 classics, he does some of the craziest slappy combos LOL.. you can skate slappy with the other shapes as you stated but it wont be easy or even possible, depending on your experience and expertise, to do some of those crazy slappy combos..

    • @100funsummers
      @100funsummers  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Oh yeah for sure, combos can definitely be done on the other shapes and sizes. It’s just a lot easier when you use the rounded edge wheels, you don’t have the resistance of the shape fighting against you. Bev rips, he is on a whole different planet when it comes to combos.

      Makes sense. Especially after hearing him explain it in depth at 5:20 or so -- having classics gives you the freedom to do crazy combos while the lock-in wheels are more stilted and not very fulfilling at prolonging your slappy grinds.

    Crazy timing! I’m just starting to do a wheel comparison project myself 😊 It’s great to hear that you like the Spitfire classics. I’ll add those to the list of wheels to test. 👍

      Great minds think alike! I’ve skated every shape and wheel at this point and in terms of slappies the classic spitfire shape is the best one. Good luck with the comparison of wheels, it is an easy topic to get really deep in. It will be cool to see what you come up with in your video.

    Spitfire is coming out 4/1 with their formula four 93A wheels call soft sliders, soft Spitfire FF4 that slides like Dragons 93A, in classic and radial shape. You should get a set and review them and compare them to Dragons and other wheels you have tried..

    • @100funsummers
      @100funsummers  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      That’s my plan, I wanted to wait to try them out but I won’t have such easy access to my slappy spot by the time I get them. I am looking forward to trying the 93 Reynolds out though. When I get them I’ll definitely do a comparison!

      I ride 52mm, perfect size for flipping and slapping. I ride a 8.5 as well, small enough for flips big enough for me.

    Totally agree, and it's kinda common sense that a conical edge will help the wheel climb a curb better. Especially on the E Coast where curbs typically have a 90 degree face making it harder to climb. Is it me, or do California curbs all seem to have a ramped face making it appear much easier to get into slappies?

    • @100funsummers
      @100funsummers  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah the rounded wheels make it a bit easier but it’s more about not being locked in for me.
      CA curbs are definitely a little sloped when compared to the east coast and finding a freshly painted red curb is not hard to find.

    Bummer to hear your going through some stuff wish you the best of luck Bro!👍and i share that opinion on the classic shaped wheels I've never slappyed anything but I notice a difference for any type of shuv it based trick or even kickflips they feel delayed on wider wheels but on the rounded edges wheels the board flips shaper and quicker experienced this lately with the conical fulls I likem but i really wanna go back to some classics lol

    • @100funsummers
      @100funsummers  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks, things are looking up nowadays. I noticed my flips are better on the rounded shapes too, I wonder if that has to do with the tipping point on the wheels, maybe? I’ll probably be done testing wheels for a while, I am on the 93d Spitfires and really like them.

      Any luck? There is a technique that helps if you have your front foot way forward on the nose to apply a lot of leverage to the nose off the end of the curb.

    yup i love the F4 classics. imo the classics, with thunders is the best combos. something about the roundness of both the wheel and hanger of thunders gives the best combination of grinds.

    • @100funsummers
      @100funsummers  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’ve never ridden thunders, always rode Indy’s before switching to Aces about 5 years ago, the slap on Aces is my favorite because of the carve. One day soon I will give Thunders a shot.

    I’m just about to make a setup for learning slappies, and was wondering which wheels to get. I was thinking either spitfire full conical or classics. I know you recommend classics do they just make doing slappies easier?

    • @100funsummers
      @100funsummers  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Slappies are hard with either wheel, and are a pain to learn especially if you have been used to Ollie’ing into everything. For me I find that the Spitfire classic wheel absolutely makes the process easier. The rounded edges make it a bit easier to get into slappies and they grind better due to less resistance. If you don’t like having room to play around on the curb a conical/tablet/lock-in wheel will hold the curb harder and may make 50/50’s more reliable but as you progress those shapes will hold you back.

    • @philipbleasdale9055
      @philipbleasdale9055 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Haven’t Ollied into anything for 30+ years. Looking forward to getting into trying slappies. Sure I did them back in the 80’s a little. Shame we don’t have amazing curbs in the UK like you guys. Think I’m going with the classics

    • @100funsummers

      It would be good to try each out eventually depending on your terrain. The wider wheels are good for rougher streets, the downside was the shape. Yeah, CA is definitely a curb heaven.
