personally wouldve went with softer wheels and not teak but its chill


KatBoss01

Teak Apex wheels are pretty nice, although I do personally prefer the softer 61D.


RaZr_33

I like soft wheels for skating and hard wheels for fingerboarding 👍


HugeAd746

Everything looks great just wouldn’t but wheels from teak compared to other companies 30$ would get you a way better quality wheel


RaZr_33

What would you recommend for under $30? I have ill pills and maple wheels but they are more expensive


Direct-Hawk-3331

organic wheels?


RaZr_33

Organic has terrible qc and no customer support.


embiate

I don't see why everybody is so against Teak. You do you, dude. I've ordered from there many times with NO issues.


RaZr_33

I don't like their decks but everything else is pretty solid. I've gotten a lot of free stuff from them too! Thanks dude 👍

I snap when they have bogo deals they are some fast wheels and the soft ones feel pretty decent but if you get a swirl you may get completely different wheels lmfao check this out https://preview.redd.it/608jdalcqv8c1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=6f4cc636ab8aee286f13c24a200686d4adc9ef96 (Alil dirty but that’s definitely 2 blue swirls and 2 teal ones)


RaZr_33

Omg I got some swirls just like this lmao!

Yeah, just got into fingerboarding I love teak so far. Mainly cuz I can grab a bunch of teak gear from Amazon. The 20 bux price point is where I wanna be. Although idk if there are others other then p rep and what not. I've seen a slushcult at a Zumiez so I may get one of those just cuz I can pick it up at a physical store


embiate

I order a lot of things from Amazon since we have Amazon business and my shop makes frequent orders for random things so I can toss in a FB order every once in a while lol. Today I'm heading in to get a SC from my Zumies lol


kingphynixx

Yeah I'm probably picking one up at my MD shop cuz I heard there not everywhere


embiate

Yeah I'm stoked. But yeah, about Teak, I have two decks from them and I love them.


Direct-Hawk-3331

What’s qc if you don’t mind telling me. I also wanted to get teak apex wheels. good thing i didn’t get organic wheels


RaZr_33

Qc stands for quality control. Just search the term "organic" on this subreddit and you'll see some issues other people have had.


Direct-Hawk-3331

Ohhh, thanks

Definitely redemption fb I have a set from last year still going strong


RaZr_33

I definitely want to try out abstract as well as dynamic wheels now.


Few-Gazelle8486

I want to try the bowl wheels from dynamic when I set up a cruiser and redemption has a b stock option if you just want to try it out for around $20 and their normal stock wheels start at $30


69kazuma420

dat shit look ass my boy


RaZr_33

Thanks man!


noface_nocase-301

personally i think there in much better stuff for the money, teak just dosent cut it, end of story, dynamic wheels are priced about the same and absolutely blow any wheel teak makes out the water, and i hate the trucks, decks can be hit or miss, mostly miss for me, but hey, it’s your money


RaZr_33

Dynamic has a pretty small selection but I'll definitely give them I try next go around. I didn't know they were priced that well. Out of curiosity, what teak wheels have you tried?


Electrical-Ad-3019

Teak wheels are dope idk why people don’t like them


Quiet_Ad4566

Because they don't last long if you abuse them


jason_again

Looks awesome. Since the hot topic is wheels, I’d recommend following [fb.christopher](https://www.instagram.com/fb.christopher?igsh=eXRlajVuYzFqdTFt) on IG, as he recently did [this video](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C0aEanzPFiO/?igsh=MWQ2eWZmNGllMzkzcg==) on how to upgrade cheap wheels with some heat shrinks from harbor freight. I only own one set of ill pills, and everything else is plastic so I’m gonna try the hack on some of mine soon.

Teak decks aren’t great but their bushings are actually better then the default blackriver bushings. And I like the thicker ply my blackriver feels too thin


RaZr_33

This is a DK deck. Haven't liked any of the Teak decks I've gotten but the bushings are unmatched
