Dude, it was sliding haha, when I was doing shutdown slides at the end of our favourite run, it kept sliding on the flatspot for some reason...about 3 runs in a row, it kept ending up on the same spot...the wheel must just go there ahah. And the other 3 are just coned/ovaled, with very slight flatspotting, so this is BY FAR the worst.
So to reaffirm you Merrick, it was several long shutdown slides on the same flatspot.
I hope to get this set of wheels on a lathe.
Stephan, don't call it a waste dude, I still rode them after this haha, it just feel a bit funny. After lathing, it should be good as new again :D
Ahhh, I'll give it a go Ayds haha. I reckon I can ride them for another month or so hopefully. It would be a waste riding them down to whatever they are and leaving them. I've never worn out a wheels, so yeah, a goal haha.
that wheel is toast man... every time you slide it will find that same flat spot and lock up. there is no way that wheel can rotate while your sliding, its fully fucked... getting it on a lathe wont help either, you will need to chew away so much thane for it to be round again. my suggestion - time for a new wheel
