Are those roofing shingles as grip tape pads?

Thank you, itās insane how good it feels. Itās really unfortunate that thereās no other way to use 165 mm and smaller trucks but HUB motors. Hopefully another company uses ride unlimited loaded hub tech or makes something better

Actually those are not the only hubs that you can fit to any truck. Exway hubs fit all trucks with a little modification, a small slot needs to be cut into the hanger for a key. But itās easy to do with a dremel. The thane is of course not as good as otang, but itās not that bad either

They are all bigger than 85 mm though right ? And yeah every Esk8 thane is ass for sliding
85mm. I havenāt actually slided with my exway x1 max yet though. But the thane certainly feels way better than the generic āchina thaneā abec copies. Not as good as otang cags or ahmyo akashas.
Chase Hiller did do some slides on the x1 pro though (previous version, but the hubs are probably not much different) Chase Hiller- Electric Skateboarding on the Exway X1 Pro - YouTube
I certainly need to refurbish my hubs before i can use them again though. Daily driving it in Denmark weather killed those bearings in 2 weeksā¦ Free spinning my hubs @45kph is louder than free spinning my BN M1 AT 5.2 ratio steel on steel gear drive at 10S 170KV, lol
But I want to slide them soon to try how they feel for that. I am still at the most basic slides on freeride wheels in my progression, so I am probably not the best on giving opinions on the smoothness of the slide, but I could compare to purple cags probably. I plan to practise sliding quite a lot during the next two or three weeks.
Also just a heads up, having the ability to change trucks is great because the exway trist trucks the hubs come with arenāt that great. The lean on them is quite limited. I am used to riding cronins, BN270s modded to tall bushings, and matrix iis though so yeah. I like to have a lot of lean
