How to make your fingerboard0

look like a real skateboard tutorial. Well, we got wood decks, professionell trucks and bearing wheels. But I like the look of wheels on a skateboard, so what can we do?
I think I found a way to let your wheels look much more like real skateboard wheels.
All you need is a backless single bearing wheel (for example a Substance quartz wheel) and two dual bearings:
.
Step 1: Get the bearing & the golden washer out of the single bearing wheel:
.
Finally Step 2: Put both (small dual) bearings into the wheel, BUT one from the front and one from the back:
.
Finally the bearings are like centralised in the wheel, screw them up to your setup and you can see some part of the axle (left side):
.
I think it looks much more realistic and it´s the same wheelsystem like a “normal” dual bearing wheel, so the wheel wont slip on your truck or whatever.
Ladys and Gentleman, it works great! Maybe this helps you a little bit to get your wheels on you Brr trucks or whatever. Up to now I just tryd it on Y-Trucks but I think there will be no problem with the Brr´s!
If you got a backless dual bearing wheel and just some single bearings it works too.
Step1: Get the dual bearings out of the dual bearing wheel (for example a Substance jade).
Step2: Press the single bearing from the front into the dual wheel body.
Step3: Press a washer into the back of the wheel.
Step4: Screw them up to your setup and you are ready to ride!
