bought some slightly worn paddles, are they gonna work ok?
hey everyone, i got a deal on a set of tires n rims for duning, i'm gonna have to swap the rims so they'll fit on my ds but here's the question, the set i bought is a set of sand skate 2's, and they are a bit worn but still have plenty of paddle left on them, they were last used on a banshee, but i don't think that matters, either way i'm hoping that they'll be better then the set of ghecko's i was running before, so will these used paddles still work better then those lame **** ghecko's? thoughts anyone? let em flow.....joshiepoo...

Got a pic of them? The big way to tell is how much of the edge is left. If you have a sharp edge then they will be good. If you have a dull edge and its worn, well it will be just ok. I know guys that refuse to ride thier DS with paddles on the pavement in order to save that edge. It makes a huge difference.

You guys are lucky to have places to ride where you don't need to ride across pavement. I'm looking into building a motorized barstool so I don't have to either sacrifice my parking spot or ride my DS a mile on pavement just to get some food at Little Sahara, OK.
Allright, I'm done now.
Sand Skates are pretty soft and lose their edge quickly. If they were that cheap, buy some rims and take 'em for a ride and see what you think. I've ridden with paddles in new condition that I still hated.

well comparing them to a new set ive seen online in the ads, they've lost a bit of paddle height where the v is on the paddle, but it looks close to full height out toward the edges, but like ironrod mentioned, the edge is pretty round when i look at em, i'm not worried about that edge now but i just want to make sure they're better then the lame a$$ gheckos i had on there before, oh and rims, i'm just swapping the set i had the gheckos on, soooo any thoughts on the traction difference between them? thanks y'all, joshiepoo....P.S. see ya at dumont the 10th thru the 12th.....
