Yeah those are really sticky wheels, its more about shifting your weight though. If you just hit a corner at speed and you do loose traction you will catch and edge and faceplant.
LoL.z this is neat, but might only last for a weekend before it gets all fucked up

It’s an old Kayaking or water sports helmet of some kind. I liked it because it had the soft foam and medium hardness foam, not the one time use hard foam stuff, but pliable foam. When I hit it hard enough eventually the shell finally cracked and I sadly had to retire it to the shelf in favor of better protection. I don’t know if it had any legitimate rating honestly, definitely not meant for skating but it saved me more than once at least… rode with it for almost 20 years, up to last year.

To follow-up on this:
Took them out for a proper ride tonight.
I’m in love. They’re so comfy I don’t even care what they’re bound to do to my gas mileage.
I am curious to see how these tires soften. I already want those Kenda slicks.

Yes, absolutely everything I say should be taken literally and at face value.

For a moment, I thought you made some sort of pollution-based range extender

Setting up the ol’ craptor hubs to run a spit. Struggling to mount the pickle dildos at each end tho.

For a micro-second there I was expecting to see a beloved esk8 under the flames. My heart literally jumped thinking you’d lost the monster.
