Harder skateboard wheels generally go faster because they have less friction with the ground. Softer wheels are good for tricks because they grip the ground more, but for speed, harder wheels are better.
No, you do not need planning permission for a skateboard ramp.
There are a few ways to prevent wheel bite on your skateboard. One way is to make sure your trucks are tight. Another way is to get softer wheels. You can also try to avoid going too fast or making sudden stops.
If you're planning on building a skate ramp, you'll need to factor in how many layers of plywood you'll need. The size and type of ramp you're building will determine the thickness of the plywood, but as a general rule, you'll need at least five layers of plywood for a basic skate ramp. For a more complex ramp, you may need up to seven layers.

Today's delivery of the Land Wave ramps was unpacked by my 13-year-old son. He linked them side by side after initially arranging them in a "A" frame. I questioned him about the new ramps after he had skated hard for around 20 minutes. He spoke three words. BEAST! Regards, dad!The inexpensive ones that we have function reasonably well. For the price, the Land Wave set's plastic quality and durability are excellent.They are much better because they lock together. I came across a review that bemoaned how difficult it was to separate the ramps. They are difficult to separate by design, in my opinion. Since they need to be strong when joined, the fit needs to be snug. They would fall apart in usage if they were simple to disassemble.In conclusion, don't wait to purchase these. Worth every cent, and I also received free shipping! Enjoy!

Even better than anticipated, the ramp! The ramp has rubber feet that keep it in place, and the riding surface is very thick and durable. The ramp weighs over 40 pounds, so as long as it isn't on a surface that is slick, it will remain put just fine. Since freshpark ramps are the best ramps on the market, I intend to get another one shortly. Additionally, they contain side openings that allow you to join several ramps together for a wider jump.I bought a second ramp to connect to the first one because I enjoyed it so much.

The Powell Rib-Bones I skated in the 1980s are very different from modern Rib-Bones. The Powell "Rat Nuts" t-nuts that came with the older Rib-Bones were wider, had only four holes, and were far more secure than tiny wood screws. These are only secured in place by wood screws, are significantly more slender, and have five holes. Fortunately, I'm not as aggressive with the rail slide as I was 30 years ago, so the strength of the wood screws doesn't seem to be an issue. Additionally, I observe professional riders using these rails to perform lengthy rock 'n' roll boardslides in cement swimming pools. Thus, the wood screws must be sufficiently secure. If you don't have to drill holes in the deck for the rail mounting hardware, setup is quicker and there is less chance of damaging the deck. I am aware that few people these days even utilize rails. However, I'm an old man who enjoys using outdated equipment and ancient boards. I continue to utilize rib bones because they are effective.

I adore this item. I appreciate the company's prompt response regarding use in cold weather (quoted below)Do we need to be concerned about using the ramps in the frigid weather?These are not intended to crack, even throughout the cold, according to LandWave. We are further north than you because we are in Northwest Ohio. Our 6'3", 350 pound controller even tested them by placing them in a meat freezer (below zero) and jumping up and down on them. He was unable to break them.To see videos of people using LandWave in the snow, visit our Facebook page.Carol A. Carr LandWave Products, Inc. administrative assistant

This rail is quite good for its inexpensive cost. The paint is beautiful and sleek and not sticky. When you look at it, it appears to be a little short—just about 5 feet—but if you start at the beginning, there is enough area to slide and it is just the right length. It can be a little challenging to turn out of boardslides and other things because the highest setting is still very low. However, the height makes it simpler to shift weight on top of the board, making it excellent for new grinds for novices. When you skate it, you notice that it carries weight without any problems despite initially feeling creaky. Excellent rail; nevertheless, I took away one star because of how light it is. Carrying it is simple, but if you aren't careful, it can topple over quickly. If it had heavier feet, that would be the deciding factor; perhaps this would be a feature for the following model. Sand bags or bench press weights would work just fine for buyers to utilize to secure it. Overall, a fantastic rail for the money.

Although mine was missing some components, the customer service was excellent and helped me with my problem. Personally, I dislike the flat, rounded bar. Compared to either a flat bar or a completely round bar, I find it difficult to lock in on, but perhaps that is just me. Despite my distaste of the form, which is probably a personal preference, I still give the rail 5 stars because it is well-made and the customer service is excellent.
The cost of building a skate ramp depends on the size and materials used. A small ramp made of wood can cost around $100, while a larger ramp made of concrete can cost several thousand dollars.
For beginner truck drivers, it is recommended that they keep their trucks relatively tight. This will help them maintain control of their vehicle and avoid any potential accidents. Of course, as they become more experienced, they can loosen their trucks up a bit, but for beginners, it is best to err on the side of caution.
There is no definitive answer to this question as it depends on personal preference. Some people prefer loose wheels as they feel they have more control over the board, while others prefer tight wheels as they feel they are more stable. Ultimately, it is up to the individual skater to decide what works best for them.
There is a lot of debate among skateboarders about whether it is better to have loose or tight trucks. Some people say that loose trucks are better for doing tricks because they are easier to turn. Others say that tight trucks are better for going fast and doing big airs. Ultimately, it is up to the skater to decide what feels best for them.
When it comes to building or buying a mini ramp, there is no clear cut answer. It really depends on a variety of factors, such as the materials you have on hand and the level of expertise you have in building ramps. If you're handy and have access to cheap materials, then building a ramp might be the more economical option. However, if you're not confident in your ramp-building abilities or you don't have the time to invest, then purchasing a ready-made ramp might be the better choice. Ultimately, it's up to you to weigh the pros and cons and
There's no one-size-fits-all answer to this question, as the best way to customize your skateboard setup depends on your skating style and preferences. However, many skaters find that adding rails to their boards can help them perform certain tricks more easily, or simply offer more protection when riding. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide whether or not rails are right for your skateboard.
