Do you know how annoying it is to go to the local BMX jumps you have building up for months and find that some kid on a moto has screwed them up? Think about it.

these guys were a little smarter than average, plus had the right resorces and all there stuff is packed down nice because it was made with a bobcat, I rode out there for several hours and not one tiny rut was formed

Well when it did happen I called Atom Rotten from Sano Systems (www.sanomx.com) and he said that is common to happen if it is over tightend or not tightened enough, sure enough I go out there and the bolt was able to spin with my fingers! :mad:
So let my agony be a lesson! Make sure everything is tight! and not over tightend! LOL

I got my chrome still, I run them only on big events. They are pretty durable but far from industructable. They look pretty though huh? :D
Im getting a new custom set of chrome done soon.
