Who wants to collaborate with me on a weight-bearing rolling resistance test of all skateboard bearings?

The current state of affairs with skateboard bearings is a fucking joke. Everybody is screaming “my bearings are da best” or “bones reds for life” or some stupid shit. Its completely unscientific and is an embarassment to humanity that nobody has gathered up every bearing and done a test. The only thing u see are free spinning tests where ppl turn the board upside down and spin the bearing with their hand and time how long it spins—which is pointless bc not all testers spin the wheel the same speed, heavier wheels will spin longer, and the friction when the bearing has no weight pressing on it can be very different from the friction with weight pressing on it.

it would be pretty simple to set up an experiment with a treadmill and a precision newton meter spring scale a skateboard, and a 100 pound dumbbell.

its ridiculous this hasnt been done yet.

Son why are you so threatened by me?

do you want ns to be your personal little pond where you can feel like the biggest fish around?

im sorry son, but i both find skiing interesting enough that i like ns as a hangout and im decent enough in park that i dont feel obligated to suck other ppls dicks here.

if you want to be the biggest fish in your online hangout then go somewhere else, bc im not going to pretend im stupid to make you feel better about yourself.

Most forums aside from 4chan are filled with beta losers with 95-105 iqs.

even if you dont have a high iq, if you find the trick/airborne aspect of skiing interesting that is worth a 20 point boost in my opinion.



most newschoolers members are pretty alphomega.

its almost a phenomenon that im able to keep this bitch chugging along with some quality postwhoring.

Nice. That mustve been fun. How many bearings did you test? Did you just do a freespin test?

What was the point of keeping them on the treadmill that long?
