Week old wheels. =3
Never buy Golds.
I made the mistake of buying some ccs wheels when I was younger. "Flatspot" would have been an understatement.Quote:

This happened the second day riding them
Holy dick. I can see other flat sections on the left side of the wheel too. I wonder who makes CCS wheels. I know Destructo makes their trucks.
your pretty much the stupidest dude ever.
Thank you.Quote:

Talking bout flatspots, you should have been skating in the time of "small wheels and big pants" wheels with 38mm what is barely more than the bearing itself, one slide and there goes the wheels.
^^ i remember deliberatly flatspotting a set of microwheels all the way into the bearings. didnt take long either. those were the days haha
you basically got your flatspot ex works ;) skating with moped-sound and feel is the shit <3

how the fuck to you get flatspots like that?
like hella powerslides?
i've had wheels de-core and remove themselves from the bearings before. That can be painful.
Powerslides, nose/tail/lipslides on a rough ledge, hitting a rock (my case), reverting tricks when you don't know how to do a full 180. They're really common, just usually a lot smaller than the one i posted.
the saddest part is that it doesn't matter how new wheels you've got, or how little a pebble you hit; insta-flatspot. happened to me a dozen times, fucking hate itQuote:
