Description

These are anti-slip wheel covers for a street skateboard that allows you to practice tricks without your skateboard running off on you while landing.  Print with a flexible filament (I used Ninjaflex) with a 30% or so infill and no supports.  Slip a cover over each wheel and you'll have a stable board to practice with and you won't need to use a single tool.

I found this idea on Amazon but didn't want to spend money on something that is easily 3D printed.

To reduce print time I recommend either reducing the height to around 50 - 80% depending on your wheel size (you might have to scale the sides up if you do this) or printing only two of them. When you do things like kickflips or ollies, put them on your back wheels, but you can put it on the front for nollies.

Works great. I have 52mm spitfires, and it took some force, but they went on. I might have scaled to 105%, but other than that, great design. it really isn't your fault it didn't fit my wheels, so I really don't see any problems with this design. you might want to add the wheel size of what they were made for in the description so people don't make the same mistake as me, and have to print twice. Thank you so much for offering an alternative to the 20$ it takes to buy this on amazon!
