Purple and red set up with gold accents. 4 wheels.
Also, me and the wookie would like credit for featuring in this video 👍2:51
Nice breakdown, eight wheels def seems like the logical choice for the beginner and as an all-rounder
I saw a guy go speeding downhill on the road with 4 wheelers. And they were big wheels too like those Olympic speed skate guys have. Tempted to try some for myself though I never done this before.
Nice one, Dude. It's always a good topic to cover and I personally think 4 wheels are always a safe bet when learning. Surface plays a huge part here, and 3 larger wheels defo rip over the rough stuff easier than 4 smaller wheels. So, if you live in an area where the paths and roads are less than ideal for skating, 3 wheels might be the way to go.
Absolutely man, thats a great point. For straight cruising bigger wheels are the way to go!
You can do almost as much on 3 wheels as 4 wheels. My son @CarsonOnWheels started on 3 and as a beginner you can quickly develop your agility and balance faster than on 4 in my opinion.
@@danfromcan Happy to hear he's enjoying the three wheels. There great for speed and distance 😁
Good video👍. Totally agree with you. I think it depends on your priorities and, particularly, abilities. I can't do stair bashing or anything tricksy, but I can tank about my city (with its crappy surfaces!) so 3x110 suits me best. The skilled-up guys I skate with prefer a four-wheel set-up so they can play about en route in the urban environment - freeskating - so some of them have gone 4x90 to get the best of both worlds. 4x80s for most beginners for sure.
Definitely everyone has different things they want from there skating and there setup. I generally find the wheelbase is too short on 3x110 for urban skating but there a great option for cruising around 👍
Great breakdown! I definitely had some fun on a 3x110 set-up for a while but lately, I am more about 4 wheel set-ups. I seem to have lost interest in most 3 wheel options. I have hardly used the 3 wheel option on my Endless frames. I thought I'd be done with 4x100mm Wizard-style skating (I have K2 not actual Wizard) after I got my Endless 90 frames but I still always have fun when I give my 4x100 rockered K2s a roll. But I agree that 4x80 is probably the perfect urban set-up and no doubt 3x110 feels great for speed and distance!
Yeah totally with you there man. I loved 3 wheels at first but the novelty soon wore off. I think the wheelbase is just too short for the level of control most skaters need. But there always a fun option@
@@chrischadwick1 I love the look of your RB 110 skates. You have lots of options with those boots if you want to try an Endless or NN rockered big wheel set-up...
It's always interesting hearing about the differences between 3 & 4 wheel setups. As someone who only recently started skating big wheels occasionally (4 X 80) I think I'm sticking with 4 for the foreseeable future.
I'm sure one day the curiosity will get the better of me though.
4x80 definitely the best all rounder. But bigger is definitely better for longer distance 👍 you enjoying the big wheels?
@@chrischadwick1 Yeah they don't feel that far removed from my Oysi frames at all, so I kinda wish I'd gone with a 4x90 BUT I'm still enjoying them!
It's given me more opportunities to skate which is always a good thing. So on days I can't get to the skatepark (cuz it's a bit of a mission) I can take the big wheels out and just mess around anywhere.
They came with soft wheels 85A and that's the only thing I think could be better. There's not many harder options, but I've seen Symetrics do their whole superfast 90A range in all sizes so I'm definitely trying those next. The 65s are great and have lasted ages!
nice vid man! Willing to try 3 skates for some short city commute, i do it on my 4 wheels already but need an upgrade!
Sounds good man, I'm sure you'll really enjoy em. It's an awesome feeling!
Thanks bro!! Just ordered our next 80’s I like stability!
Awesome great choice! Which frame did you go for?
im fairly new to skating but not a total newb, i used to skate with old school dual inline when i was kid. im also not afraid of speed, i ride a motorcycle and doing 100s isnt gonna scare me.
i wanted to do downhills and general long distance skating. is getting a 3 wheeler a good start? what kind of shoes should i get, low, cycling style shoes or boots?
so quick question. I have extremely bumpy/pebbly roads in my surrounding area, and want to skate around without numbing my feet and causing issues. On the other hand, id also love to use them in a rink for some relaxed gliding/racing. I hesitate in calling myself intermediate or beginner, as I know all the basics, its just a matter of Practicing to get a handle on all of them. I like the speed and smoother riding that the 3W offer but don't know if the stability would be a determining factor. Could i have some insight by some more experienced skaters?
So the longer I skate the less I like three wheel setups I just feel they're too tall and unstable. For rougher ground I would reccomend 4x90 instead of 3x110 I think it will be smoother and without sacrificing stability. Hooe that helps 😁
@@chrischadwick1 awesome, thank you!
Which are good
