Skateboard bearings are the small metal components that allow your skateboard wheels to spin freely. These bearings play a crucial role in the performance of your skateboard, and it's important to maintain them regularly to ensure optimal performance. In this section, we will discuss the importance of maintaining and replacing skateboard bearings, how to clean and lubricate them, and when it's time to replace them. They keep the optimal pop you get from concrete and allow you to spin/flip the skateboard in any direction. They allow you to practice any maneuver while stationary without the fear of slipping out and breaking bones.

Since then skateboard wheels have changed a lot due to different technologies being developed and different types of skateboarding becoming more popular. During the 90’s when street skating was becoming increasingly popular, wheels started to shrink until they became literally tiny (many wheels that were commonly available were only 42mm). It's important to note that you should avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials when cleaning your skateboard wheels, as this can cause damage to the wheels.But if your goal is for your child to learn to ride a bike, the answer is no, they do not work because they don’t actually train kids to ride a bike. As soon as they come off, the real training begins! From running beside your child while holding onto the seat, to the numerous pep-talks after crashes, transitioning a child off of training wheels isn’t easy.

Apply a small drop or two of oil to each bearing and spin them gently to distribute the lubricant evenly. Be careful not to over-lubricate your bearings, as this can cause them to attract more dirt and debris. Once lubricated, reinsert the bearings into your wheels and tighten the axle nuts securely. Use skate shoes if you can get them or trainers with flat soles (running trainers will arch your foot and throw you off balance)Although they are not the cheapest, Orangatang Fat Free wheels are among the best cruiser wheels available. Despite being soft, these wheels are incredibly strong, and it will take a while before the urethane is chewed through. I put them to the test with Arbor Pilsner and my Dinghy. Training wheels help kids stay upright on a bike and pedal at an earlier age. If your goal is for your child to pedal a bike while assisted, then yes, they work.

Choose comfortable, lose clothing and trousers that you don’t mind ripping (as you may fall when practicing). In addition to regular inspections, there are steps you can take to extend the life of your skateboard wheels. One important tip is to avoid riding on rough terrain or surfaces that can cause excessive wear and tear. You should also make sure that your wheels are properly inflated, as this can affect their performance and lifespan. Finally, rotating your wheels regularly can help to distribute the wear and tear more evenly, ensuring that they last as long as possible.Training wheels should always be set slightly higher than the rear tire. While this does cause the child to tilt from side to side on the bike as they ride, this uneven riding is oddly necessary for safety reasons.
