Ok, y'all know I'm a noob, I do alot of street skating as opposed to parks. My stupid question is this: While we all know about waxing a rail/ledge before trickin it. I tend to fly all around town n not stay in one place for too long to avoid the cops. Has anyone ever waxed their frames n plates as opposed to the ledge? Is probably suicide so I figured I'd see if anyone else has had this "bright" idea n actually tried it before I go n do serious damage to myself :) Feel free to let me know just how stupid you think this question is :)

Makes sence to me,like if you want to just skate all over the town or whatever.not just stay on one ledge.
you kno i was thinking about doing that like yesturday. but havent.
Yeah kinda makes sence alright but if thats the case why doesnt everyone do it that way?........logic suggests that there's probably a real good reason not to n I'm already carryin one fucked up wrist n cant really afford another bad injury so I'd rather hear why NOT to do it from someone who knows already. If however NOONE has actually done this before then hell man I'll GLADLY be the testpilot! :)
it works ok for rails but kinda sucks on ledges your best bet is to wax everything late at nite then skate wen ever
Ah so it HAS been done before, thought so, yeah figure you'd need a pretty thick coat on to manage a ledge. Cheers for that Dude.
I actually tried that once didn't work very well though + ur frames n soul plate gets fucked up.
I don't recomend it :P
theres been a few ppl who modify there souls with holes so they can fill it with wax...so they fly down the ledge/rails...ledges have to be waxed or ur skatesll get pretty messed up
WAX the ledge i wouldn't recommend it
it works ok for me, i just put a light coat on my soul plates to fill in the deep scratches and stuff then i scrape the rest off kinda like a surfer would do. still need the ledge u wanna skate waxed though.
sometimes i'll wax my frames when im skating handrails that are sliding for everyone else but myself and im sure they dont want me waxing the rail. i have able frames that are slow as fuck
i have done it. and you go flying forward. so yeah i wouldnt try it i learned the hard way
K so bein King Idiot I has to try for myself, I went ahead n covered my frames n plates in wax n ya know what..... I love it! It suits me perfectly! Tho, souls take serious concentration now to keep em locked n rails are much faster than I'm really happy with but fuck it! Is nice to be challenged. I dunno, wax on my equipment seems to work for my crazy ass. :)
Only reason I dont wax my skates is because it seems to build up crap MUCH faster and at times will clog the screw holes on the bottom of your soul plates which makes them super hard to get off when you want to replace them.
