When i was skating the first Frank OS skate i used cuff bolts to hold that little thing with the strap. I had two small ones like you got first, but i F'ed them up bad very fast. The cuff bolt works great and you can make sparks when you fall.

I got 54mm89a. That has been the magic setup for flat in street and park. It takes some time to get tricks down, but its the best. There is no FN up on tricks now, cause if you miss that groove its 3mins of pain! Its been hard finding good wheels to skate flat. I used 55, but they are still too big. I was skating 55 flat on small elements and i would get stuck like crazy. I think i ma try 55 flat again soon after all the Ganzo wheels sell out. 56 is too big. Only Eulogy has small hard wheels. The Eulogy team wheels were the best flat set up i have ever had, but they dont make them anymore. They were 54mm90a. My Gonzos are not lasting as long as the teams did for me. If you skate flat i recommend large CO frames they have been good. the only down side to CO frames is that they are arched. When i put all 4 wheels on the middle two did not touch. It took about a week or too to get my skates flat. I am waiting on those Kaltik stealth flat frames cause that is what we need! The HBLOCK is made like thos inserts they made for fiziks frames. On a last note. I skate bowls a lot now that i ride flat and if you have small frames flat set up u will get bad speed wabbles. LIKE BAD! I know large frames make it hard to do tech switch up, but you will get used to them. Type my name in Vimeo or youtube. i think most of the videos i got are me skating flat. I could go on for days on how flat is the best, but i comes done to one thing. I got 8wheels you do the math!

Hahah ya i did just slop it on. I dont reallt care if it all over the place its gonna be black and covered in wax in two days. Someday i will spend more time coloring, but i like sloppy. They might turn blue soon. The green came out too light, i wanted a Hooi BRG green. What do you think about covering the entire skate. I that JCudot did his all brown or something.
