Come on Chris, we all know you are here primarily in an effort to prop-up your diminishing sales as the downhill skateboard market, that lined your pockets with cash at the start of this decade, slowly dies! Based on what wheels are being used by the pros it seems your oversized product line up is slightly out of favor in that market anyway.
On that note, where on earth do we need to go to buy the large diameter products you are talking up? - it seems most of the big online stores Muirskate - Daddies - [WarehouseSkateboards] (https://www.warehouseskateboards.com/skateboard-wheels#class=1W&pg=1&brand=AEL|) - Tactics - don’t sell big wheels, 83mm & above, are they just not popular enough to be kept in stock? why is that?
Considering the dwindling supporter & competitor numbers, my guess is that the IDF has just a few years left before it’s not viable and only a fool would ignore those signs, your no fool Chris. Explains your increased presence here.
Fortunately, there is a new market ripe for abec11 insemination, A rapidly growing ESK8 market that just happens to love your wheels primarily due to the fact that your core is perfect for attaching a pulley, your saving grace, and last but not least because they are fucking good wheels, Chris.
Yes, You resell very good products, bravo!
However, in your misguided attempt to further grow your loyal fan base of esk8ers & sway opinions towards your clearly superior products, whilst simultaneously using back-hand rhetoric & expertisims to smack down other popular & rapidly emerging trends, such as hub motors, I feel you have become lost in a flowing sea of your secret urethane formulas & soft sales pitches…
Chris, Your sales pitch & reality are slightly misaligned right now!
FACT: We have already proven that the fastest wheel don’t have the most urethane. Capisce!
ALSO: Your own customers testimonials on your own website contradict your “Expert Advice” proclaiming esk8 riders must have gargantuan amounts of urethane otherwise they will be doomed / unhappy / unsatisfied / uncomfortable / unaccepted / etc / etc…
You say: “15.5mm FEELS HARSH LIMITED APPEAL”
Your Website & Your Customers say: “15.5mm YOU DON’T FEEL THE CRACKS”
YOU ARE SAYING YOUR OWN PRODUCT IS HARSH, YOUR CUSTOMERS & YOUR WEBSITE DISAGREE, IT’S VERY CONFUSING CHRIS
We all love you Chris, you are a true pioneer… please just take a breath and relax before you dig too deep… I am sure plenty of folks will buy your products and love them… I always recommend them myself…
Proof:
So welcome to the community, sit back & enjoy the ride brother!
